  1. Fun Fjord Angling in beautiful, legendary #esefjorden surrounded by high picturesque mountains: When I was a little boy, my mother used to send me out on the fjord to catch the fish called: Sand Whiting. They are fun to fish, bite easily on the hook and taste good for lunch. Some call them “Fjord Chickens”- Isn’t that cool?

    EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - FAMILY FISHING TRIP, CATCHING HALIBUT=>VIDEO HERE

Can you imagine if this is happened to you? Catch some fish with Captain Tor and make your own dinner when you get home. Butter-fried Sand Whiting served on a piece of seed-loaf and with a homemade salad and a bottle of local made fruit drink: “Sprudlande Margaret” from Balholm.
