2023 - November 5th at Nyköping near to the road Bridge

Just recently i felt the need to get out for some fresh air and fish a little . Unfortunately since losing my work end of August it has been difficult to secure further work however i have many contacts and hope to secure work quite soon with my new (own) company; 'MSD EE AB'

Last year almost to the day i fished this area and had a huge catch of fish up to 40 kilos , it was insane fishing 4-5m of water but catching in the top 2metres ........ with plenty of 200gr to 750gr fish like Ide , Roach , Bjorkna and skimmer ...........how will it fish today ? It was 2 weeks ago i fished here for just  one Ruffe!!!! (i believe the Baltic sea was under climatic pressure pushing salt into the area thus putting off the fish , so i understand ?

I started the day with a Top 7 on pole feeder and i had a EXNER DELTA flat float 8gr on a Top 7 (later changed to a EXNER ELIASZ 4gr for a bit more sensitivity as the speed of the river did not warrant a flat float of that weight.

I started on Pole feeder firmly and first time in i pulled out after a couple of minutes to find a small roach hanging on , good sign !

Met a nice guy there chatting about fishing in general in Sweden. 

I changed to the float and caught quite well however the form was patchy but with the river showing quite brown water it was clear the fish were not settled .

Pole feeder with MATRIX SLIK 8-10 Green elastic in pole with no.5 PRESTON Slip below using a Red EXNER tip as a indicator.

Ended the day with 21 fish (20 of which were Roach) plus one Bjorkna

All returned safely and no sore necks ! - everyone a swimmer !
