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.

Coastline sea troutin’

Earlier this season, we had the opportunity to come back to the amazing region of Fyn in Denmark chasing after coastal sea trout.

After a 4 months road trip in Norway back in 2021, we discovered the region and the fishery of Fyn on the way back to France and we’ve been astonished by the surroundings and beauty of the spot.
The fishing was tough and it took us some time before understanding how the fishery works but on the last days of our trip we lost several very good fish, so this time we were seeking revenge!

Fortunately, the beauty of the fishery has been untouched, but on the other hand, everything didn’t really go according to the plan…

Surprisingly, this season I spent most of my sessions chasing trout on my own, fishing simply for myself.

Although my camera still comes with me every time I hit the water, it was such a pleasure not to put any pressure on myself to produce content, and instead get back to the basics, focusing solely on the fishing itself.

As a result, I only ended up photographing a handful of fish this year, even though this short season proved to be quite fruitful one considering the little time I actually spent pursuing salmonids.

Nevertheless, I still had the chance to capture a few beautiful fish on a new stretch of river where, until now, I had had very little success. Most notably, during one unforgettable afternoon session, I managed to bring three fish to the net averaging over 55cm, all taken on sight dry fly.

Hopefully, some of those fish from this incredible stretch have managed to survive this historic heatwave.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I won’t be here to chase them next season. Different projects taking me in search of new horizons! Stay tuned!

Summer’s almost over and with it (hopefully) the massive heatwave that struck France the last few weeks.

Time to have a look back on our trout season which has been significantly disturbed by the weather and water conditions.

Still, we managed to enjoy some times on the water chasing local brownies in different rivers around our place and discovering some new ones, and overall had pretty good results regarding the time we allocated to the salmonids this year.

The first half of this year has been a rather unusual one for trout fishing in our local rivers.

The season started with heavy rainfall and consistently high water levels. Then, almost overnight, late May brought scorching temperatures and exceptionally low flows, cutting short what had seemed to be a very promising season.

On top of that, our different trips earlier this year kept us away from our home waters for several weeks. In the end, opportunities to fish close to home were few and far between.
So we tried to make the most of every outing. And despite such a limited window of opportunity, the season still rewarded us with some great fishing, especially on dry fly, and results that exceeded our expectations considering the time we were able to spend on the water.

While fishing trip are obviously, well… fish related, they’re also the perfect occasion to enjoy some local (and fresh) products and meet new people!
During our stay in Xcalak we had the pleasure to meet a couple of French speaking people who kindly invited us to share a lobster aperitif out on there little piece of paradise
Because fly fishing trips are not only a matter of fish.

Catching fish is cool, doing it on foot on DIY is even cooler!

One aspect that truly seduces us in Xcalak is the amount of possibilities you can have of fishing on your own. While a car is almost mandatory to stroll around, the coastline is still pretty accessible and gives you the access to many opportunities on several flats. On the other side, you also have the possibility to fish some parts of the Chetumal Bay, even if the road to get there is a little bit tricky.
Unfortunately for us the bay didn’t delivered much action during our stay but we finally ended up finding a good amount of bonefish on the ocean side in only inches of water.
