You probably do not know much about hearsay winter holiday in Europe - author's ski resorts in the Alps, skiing holiday in Austria, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. I want to tell you about my own experience - ryblke autumn in Norway.
I fished in the city of Stavanger with Captain Ole Johannes. Separately, about Johannes. He is a descendant of the Vikings in fishers ... generation. The main profession - the captain of the ferry with a good salary. In his spare time, and it is up to three weeks a month, engaged in fishing. And they have built together with his brother and father of several guest cottages equipped to a high standard, and take the tourists - the fishermen. An interesting rich life.
the morning put forward in the sea . First, with Johannes in his motor boat check sea Yatir and deep set of the grid. The process of polished over decades, and one man copes with the enormous amount for a hour. In Yatar full of crabs, the size of people's heads. They are sorted by size and color. Small and those that have recently shed - back into the sea. There are also some huge black lobster, plastered with a large black caviar, salted already in the sea water and ready to eat.
wonderful weather, the waves are small, and Johannes holds introductory water tour around the island . The island is small, about two to two kilometers. Very green and beautiful. In sheep, cows and horses grazing in the meadows. Through a narrow duct hundred-meter on the neighboring island of Tilga arch thrown over the road bridge. On the steep bank is seen a key point of the archipelago - trehkorpusny supermarket "Joker". And the great harbor filled with yachts, boats and boat buyers. It's all connected and adapted to life at sea.
parallel conduct reconnaissance of the terrain and anchor offshore facilities to marks on the map, so you do not get lost. On a detailed map sea green circles fishing spots. Depth of from twenty to three hundred meters.
return to base, drink tea, take spinning and have their own goods in open wooden boat. Johannes gives final instructions, and a nice "down-down-down" single-cycle diesel engine, we push off on first independent hunt for fish . GPS shows our position, and depth sounder - depth and some fish down there. With trembling hands, throws tackles. During the wind and pulled down the boat in the direction of south-west. Depth is always changing, making it easier to meet with the fish. Got it! The first mackerel. Then Pollock, her Merlan. Red grouper! And off. Little by little there is understanding, which shows the depth sounder and the depth at which fish are. At the end of catch and meter silver garfish. Here is the catch!
Based on all comers bathe in clean water brook. Temeratura water 16. A little frantically, because already at the shore the depth of 50 meters. Then, in the shower under hot water - and all as cucumbers. Meanwhile, begin preparing holiday dishes from today's catch. Crab Boil 25 minutes in sea water and two hours cool the fresh air. Mackerel is eaten raw, soaked in a spicy sauce. Other fish clean and fry. Light the fireplace, put on the table, pull out brought with vodka. Again, I understand, what better place than Norway for a good holiday with the company and should not find it! So I again here. And for the fourth time!
