Åland Havs Salmon
Back from Eckerö, Åland after a few weeks fishing for migrating salmon.
The fishing started with a lost fish followed by a 10.5kg salmon, then the weather changed to a northern wind and the water cooled down , which resulted in 13 days without a strike due to a wrong strategy.
After a change we managed to catch a nice 16.8kg salmon at the first day of the "Trolling Träff" competition, which was the second biggest of the day and 5th biggest over all and further lost one with a line break.

Väner-Lax 10,6 kg
Fishing since a few weeks on Vänern out of Dalbergsa, when weather permits and catching mostly Trout between 3 and 5kg as well as 1 Salmon of 4kg.
But today I got connected with a big Salmon of 10,6kg right in the morning and short after all the rods were in the water. After a tough fight with some runs and jumps out of the water I could finally net him.
The Salmon is the current leader of the "Einars Silverlaxen 2022" Competition from Melleruds Trollingklubb.
