Headed out today after work to hit one of the islands just outside Oslo, I had some new flies to test out and the ferry out there was only 20minutes. The\u00a0forecast said slow wind and a nice afternoon, but as I approached the waterfront and took the ferry it was apparent that the wind was\u00a0not<\/strong> slow… Got out to the island and found this place where I could stand and get some line out in the water, but the wind was picking more and more up and the line kept going everywhere….<\/p>\n

As you do when things don’t go your way: get some food and boil up some coffee to see if things change!<\/p>\n

Things didn’t change though. I have recently purchased a new rod (Zpey 13.3 #8) for salmon fishing, but haven’t had the chance to test it out, so to get some practice I got it out and started testing it out for the first time. I have never cast spey before so it was a bit akward, but I got a half-way snap-t and a line that went in the right direction, so more on the rod and how that behaves later<\/p>\n

No fish today, but with scenery like this 20min from Oslo it is good to just get out there and brew a cup of coffee and go home while the sun sets.<\/p>\n
