CatchMore season 2012 summary
From mr Kari Danielsson of guide company CatchMore we have got the following report:
Summary of fishing year 2012 // We started fishing in March, it was an incredibly good fishing, 13 first fishing trips resulted in pike over 100 cm, with four pikes at most, over 100 cm. Then came May, which will be a safe pike month, it was the worst May fishing I have experienced in all my years fishing. Got an explanation later, it had apparently come in very cold water in the Baltic Sea, which never happened before. In total there were lot over 1,000 pikes 2012 by myself and guests, of which 61 or 62 were over 100 cm. We got so many pike over 90 cm as well, so pike fishing in 2013 will be very interesting. Walleye and perch fishing was a little on the side of this year, but it came up fine Zander and perch "perch of 2.4 kg was pulled from a friend just 200 meters from the camp. Unfortunately we did not get up the largest pike, appreciate it to 125-130 cm but we have high hopes for season 2013!

Winter fly fishing in central Sweden!
Winter fly fishing in minus degrees! Even if it´s hard to belive it is possible to fly fish in Sweden right now. In the small stream Norrbyströmmen near Motala guests can book and fish even if the snow is covering the surrounding landscape. Fishing host Manni Svensson reports; `Despite my warnings about the cold weather Magnus, André and Jarri really wanted to give it a try, so they arrived and and fished here last Saturday. Four rainbows and one brown trout were landed, and many were lost, including a big bow that did not fit into the net. Best fly was a lightly weighted black nymph in size 14 fished just under the surface. Now we await the next period with little warmer weather.´
