Filmtaime! Old movies from Lake Vättern.

Brother and Bert fished in Northern Lake Vättern, out of Karlsborg and had good fishing a couple of years ago.
Weather was windy and cloudy, but fishing was ok. Bert was looking for ideal place to mount his camera and at this time it was placed on the planerboardmast. Litttle bit far away from action, but close enough to catch some typical incidents that can happend on windy lakes and bitewilling fish that isn't pleased with only one bait
I fished nearby from my boat with Nikke from Team Jansson, and we had scimilar fishing. In other words very good.

Brother is floored by a big wave, but he's up, as shot from a slingshot, in a few seconds, continued fishing as nothing happend. Look at the clip here:
Brother floored by a big wave.

One hungry salmon takes two baits. In the wind fellow fisherman didn't take any notice of a reel giving signal, there is Fish On!
Here is the clip:

First in the water gets most fish...

...and these are some really fast methods to launch a boat. It just happends to be Warrior 165, of some reason. Are Warriorowners little bit more nuts then others? Judge for yourself the two various ways how to wet the boats. Both are a bit of a Redneckstyle, but very usable if you have a boat tough as a warrior.
I have launched my boat in the Borghamn harbour, lake Vättern several times and it's a little bit like the example when the man let go of the boat from a pier. The harbour in Borghamn is probably the last one to freeze in all Swedish lakes, so that's is the best spot to launch a boat if you have panic to get salmon for christmas. Just a pitty the people in the harbour just doesn't make it a proper harbour for sportfisherman. I'll keep dropping my boat boat from the ramp as the man on the bottom example, since i just think Borghamn is a great place to book for a weekend and have as a base when fishing around the waters there.




Can it be done faster then this?

Filmtajm! Bert and Micke fighting mullet...among others things.

Bert is releasing his collection of filmclips from fishingadventures on the Swedish westcoast.
This film is one of my personal favourites.
Some swearwords, seaweed and algees on places where it shoulden't be and a nice mullet that is bigger and stronger than it appears from the beginning, adds some spice to this filmclip.
I had a good laugh looking it, so take a look and judge for yourself. I give it a ten out of ten!

New cool downriggerweights from Denmark

Look at these new enviromentaly friendly downriggerweights from Scanlure. The outer shell is some hardwear plastic and it's filled with irongrain instead of lead. The design of the ball is a little bit slimmer than a weight made of lead and will add up to the loss of weight. They are tough gear: Look at the filmclip on scanlures homepage where you see that they can bee abused badly and stand it. Plastic is tough stuff!
They also make a little weight that will be put on the line, very slim and fast to use, when trolling.
I coulden't find it on their homepage, but if you contact Scanlure, they'll give you some information. The weights are only for sale in Denmark this far and probably they will be for sale in Sweden aswell.
The reason why they make a weight like this is because in Denmark it's forbidden to use leadweights when fishing!! When will it be forbidden here?

Me, Fiskeberra and Finnfisher will try out these new weights as soon as possible and let you know how they work.

Check out the weights at Scanlure.dk or just look at the cool homepage.


Weigths come in 3, 5 and 7.5 kg. 

Different colours too.
