The trips are part getting out into the forest, part workout and of course: I always bring my rod. Some of the trips can be 6 hours where 5 hours is walking and 1 \u00a0hour is fishing, other times it is 2hours walking, 5hours fishing and return. The important thing is to get out in the forest to relax and rewind.<\/p>\n<p>This time I took a trip from the south-end of the forest towards a small lake I visit every year.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-790\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1-768x1024.jpg\" width=\"642\" height=\"856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1-157x210.jpg 157w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/a>Some steep hills, but this particular path is not that much used, so you get to walk alone for much of the time in beautiful nature<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-791\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2-768x1024.jpg\" width=\"642\" height=\"856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2-157x210.jpg 157w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-792\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3-1024x768.jpg\" width=\"642\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3-210x157.jpg 210w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_3.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/a>First glimpse of the lake: dead-quiet on the surface, not a breath of wind.

Sat down and listened to the nature: all I could hear was the steady rising and jumping of trout &#8211; the activity level was really high. I saw the classic head-tail rise of several large trout, but they were too far out to be able to get to. I did, however, see trout come up and jump 30cm off the water to target butterflies and insects just 2m from land where I was standing!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-793\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dryfly.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4-1024x768.jpg\" width=\"642\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4-210x157.jpg 210w, https:\/\/flyfisher.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/2013.07.dryfly.me_.nordmarka_4.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/a>This is a place I target every year, the trout here is large, but is hard to get to (most is far out in the middle where you cannot get to).
