tha last time we where here it was quiet
almost to quiet
Kolbäcksån in Smedjebacken
a place where a pike over 16kg have been caught
where it's full of rainbow trout
perfect food for a predator
But last time in the fall the pike where slow and hard to catch
It almost felt like they laughed at us from the deep
Now we're back, it's almost summer
warmer water, more activity
and a new plan
we're gonna fish both day and night
but during the middle of the day we're gonna try and catch some rainbow
To see what the pike eat
- I got one! - you got one?
what a jump
This is not only fishing
It's a hunt for a predator
that might only eat once a month
big! big!
big!
Oh damn!
It's the fattest I ever seen
It's brutal Tobbe
But first we'll read some of your comments
Veronika want us from team galant to say hello
So hi to you Veronika
she want ut to do a challenge at Orsa fiskecenter
We've actually planned for that
My wonder where we are from? what dialect do we have?
We're from Småland My
The same place as Emil
Malin want us to fish for garfish
I've never actually fished for garfish
But now we're gonna fish for real pikes
We've arrived here in Smedjebacken
We put my boat in the water kast night but...
we have some bad news
we have a problem
we where not supposed to fish just me and Edvin today
as you now we have a Christmas calendar here at Kanalgratis
filled with really cool fishing gear
And in one of the calendars there are a golden ticket
If you get that one you can have a whole day of fishing with us
last year it was Kalle from Norrland who got the ticket
he brought Khalid with him then
But this time it was Mattias from Borås who will bring his friend Linus
but an accident has occured
Mattias has hurt his back and neck
So he cannot be with us fishing today
Mattias is gonna need some love and support in the comments below
leave a comment wishing him a speedy recovery
and of course he's gonna tag along at a later time with us
but this time Edvin and I are alone
out on this river where some huge pikes live
I haven't been this stoked in a long time
it's been months planning this
and now we're here and just about to start fishing
I can see a lot of baitfish on the surface
My gut feeling is much better than last time we where here
To reduce the risk of stepping on all the rods
we have some new rod holders from Q-ergo
a new company from Poland
with high quality gear
we can show you later how they work
Now we need to have our lures in the water to catch the big fishes
My girlfriend and I designed a lot of hot new colors in photofish
I rigged this one before
I think it will be extra hot today
a fatnose that suppose to look like the bait fish in here
I've actually caught some fish on it before
a perfect lure during spring
most small fishes are close to the edges
so this one is gonna be great
I've packed my lure box with all the hot lures
and colors that I believe extra strong in
Tobbe start with a fatnose so I'm gonna try a flatnose
I've caught so many big fishes on it
It has some wider profile and more round
The lure is rigged and the rod is in my hands
let's catch that pig
first cast
It's so exciting
Right now we don't know where fish are
so we're gonna cover as much space as possible
If we get a bite in one spot we might fish there more
But now we just need to search for them
In the fall pikes are often gathered in a deep hole together
this is totally different when the water Is much warmer
I think they are spread out, along the edges and hiding
so now we're fishing a lot of area
And we probably find a pattern on where they are
