The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): November 2009

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

Posted by The Dutch Four. Close, but no blank. When we announced our second fishing- and testing day on this blog, we advised you to sue us if we would come home with a skunk. Well, it was pretty darn close, but Erik and Sander saved the day by catching not much more than a meter of pike together. Here's Sander's half:. Other catches though, but they don't quite impress on the CV of a pike fly fishing team that's about to compete on an international platform:. And here's one of the excuses:. Been in fron...

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): March 2010

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Time for an update of the ice conditions in Vaasa. Here´s the situation at 29 march:. Still 40-60 cm. of ice. Mmm.I guess the good news is that the ice cover didn't grow during the last week. But still no worries, because the averega ice cover for this time of year seems to be 48 cm.:. Also, temperatures in Vaasa for the next week will be around average for this time of year:. Hopefully next week the update will show a nice decline in ice cover. Posted by The Dutch Four. Or even worse, a nice fish? I'm s...

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): January 2010

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Like I said, this should have been a warning. But no, when I was out there again one my own a few days later, I somehow had to top Sander's clumsyness by casting in the willows on the other bank. Look, there is is:. Game over, and another lesson learned: when trying to pull loose a stuck streamer, always pull on the line. The rod tip. Didn't I know that, one might ask. I did, but I was so caught up in the fight with the willow tree that.oh well, never mind. So did I get my rod tip back? What did you say?

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): Tournament, the last day. (part 1)

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010/06/tournament-last-day-part-1.html

Tournament, the last day. (part 1). And yes, going for Gold (or at least lots of pike) means hard working. Our regular weapon would be a 9 or 10 weight rod. Try to make as much casts as you can with one of these rods and a heavy streamer and you know what hard working is. Erik and Harmen-Jan in full action. Hajee in front of the skiff, ready for battle as we cruise to the delta. Typical view of the surroundings early in the morning. Posted by The Dutch Four. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): The biggest pike

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010/06/biggest-pike.html

Okay, so we met up with Erik and Harmen-Jan right before the ending of the final day. And I asked Erik to write down a bit of that experience. But before you start reading underneath I would recommend to just cranck up the speakers of your personal computers entertainment system. Because I think this song was on Erik’s mind for the rest of the week (at least I heard him whistling it several times after that moment of the day where he absolutely rocked! This song rocks, just like our erik did. Who are The...

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): Fishing for pleasure, the post-tournament-syndrome.

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010/06/fishing-for-pleasure-post-tournament.html

Fishing for pleasure, the post-tournament-syndrome. And of course our new rigs gave us more confidence, just like discovering a huge difference in the boat between Hajee’s small unweighted EP-fiber. Streamer and my big zonker/bucktail double-deckers. It was amazing to see the difference in numbers of fish that took small streamers vs. big ones. We felt more comfortable hauling heavy weight rods by the day. The Echo SW. The young fellow liked to cruise around full trottle. So Hajee and me had a lot of fun...

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): December 2009

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

Due to notoriously non-liquid fishing waters and the holidays we're out of office until next year, which will start no sooner and no later than 1-1-2010 on this blog. Posted by The Dutch Four. Boy George, pike fly fishing and christmas. You must be permanently on grass man, if you really think that thing at the end of your line looks like a fish", the man behind me said. "And to wave it back and forth like that all the time, what's that good for? Looks like a fish straight into the water? They can fish w...

The Dutch Four go for gold (or at least loads of pike...): April 2010

http://thedutchfour.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world. The heat is intense, the afternoon we arrive there is enough wind, but the heat is still overwhelming on my island. A bloody 34 degrees celcius in the shadow and humidity up to a stunning 98%. Saltwater fishingtrip? Saltwaterfall running down my butt in between the cheecks. And it’s sweaty without salmonides on that particular streaming river…. An Airflo Bonefish line and the Echo 2 SW #9. That could well be fish. The first cast is just in place and a small stri...
