2010 FIRST HALIBUT TRY !

M/V "Big Fisher" has left the harbour for the first trip in 2010.

Still very cold weather and problems with frozen pumps onboard.

The Savage gear Herring cutbait works great.
Tried some fishing - but no halibut .
It is early for halibut on shallow water- they are still on deeper water making halibut-babies.
We don't want to disturbe them there !!

Its a really good cod-fishing just now outside Kvaløyvågen and the professional fishermen are very happy.
Anyway it is really nice to get out there !!

You never know what the day brings to you"

WINTER IN TROMSØ

Still winter in Tromsø. Nice weather - minus 6 degrees celcius - calm wind conditions.
See the enclosed picture from this morning.

Very good cod-fishing (Skreifiske) outside Senja - first coming thursday I will taste it with some friends.

Skrei, lever and rogn is a local delicatesse at this time of the year here in North Norway.
Gives you a lot of energy and omega 3 which is good for your health !!!
