NORWAY BELOW ZERO ADVENTURE

posted in: Sea Angling, Sidebar | 0

North Devon Anglers Kevin Legge and Craig McCloughlin of Braunton Baits made the long trek to Norway for a week fishing at Saltstraumen Brygge Fish Camp in search of the specimen fish that reside within the prolific icy waters. Fishing from the rocky shoreline in temperatures as low as minus15 degrees they landed numerous halibut and cod. The highlight of the trip was a huge cod of 51lb 12oz to the rod of Paul Rogers of Rock Grip.

Fishing is about more than just fish its also about the places and sights you see such as the spellbinding Northern Lights.(Above)

How do you thaw your bait in frozen rock pools?
