Team Proviset in Åland




I got report from Team Proviset, Arja and Niko.
They have been fishing Åland the last 2 weeks. They had 15 salmon strikes and landed 12 of the salmon in the boat. They also lost 2 huge fish in the competition, both because the new 0,46 line broke. The twelve salmon weighed 4kg, 4.5kg, 4.5kg, 6.7kg, 7.5kg, 9.5kg, 9.5kg, 9.5kg, 10kg, 10.5kg, 13kg and 13.7kg

The recipe was small VK- baitholders in Coho Blue chrome, "Lapinkulta", Purple Black Chrome and Gold colors, with 13-15cm baitfish.

Eight of the salmon were caught behind the new 6" VK-Flasher with a 120cm long leader, Some were also caught behind the bigger original size model. The flasher colours UV, Chrome and Gold with different color tapes worked fantastic. The team had a trolling speed of 1.5-1.6 knots and they used big and slow barrel rotating with bait.

Their result in the competition was 4th and they took the 9th biggest fish.

Arja fought all of the fish and Niko was just the deckhand:-)

Congratulations on a fantastic fishing holiday.
