As a lot of our friends already know, we have the reputation to bring a black cat wherever we go.
This time in Denmark was no exception. Building on the experience we gained in 2021, this year we decided on a strategy of following the prevailing winds and seeking out the most sheltered faces of the island from day to day, while making sure to quickly cover water with a power-fishing approach in order to locate the fish.
The first day proved worthwhile, with a few takes from Finnock and a beautiful hatchery fish landed towards the end of the day, confirming that our strategy made sense.
Unfortunately, we hadn’t counted on a temperature drop of almost 10°C in less than 24 hours, which pushed the fish further offshore and into deeper water where the temperature was more comfortable for them.
A real shame after such a promising first day.
