There are a lot of different species
of fish in the sea

that you can cook and eat

My favourite is cod

It's finally time for Tobbe and I
to do a food fight on cod

we've done a few food fights before

mostly on perch or salmon

But now we've, travelled 2000km

and arrived in the northern part of Norwat

with high mountains, cold weather
and rain

But this is where the best cods swim

We've swapped our outdoor kitchen
for this professional kitchen

we've got some great conditions
to cook the best meal we could

Tobbe is in big trouble

It's something huge down there Tobbe

Edvin is a bit to cocky

Everyone knows that cod is my spciality

They call me Cod Tobbe for a reason

But first we'll read some of your comments

Haxanshus want us to do a food fight
for pike next time

It'll be hard to catch a pike where
we are right now

But maybe some other time we will

Algis doesn't like my pronounciation
of the word cod

I can say whatever I want

Malte Mustang want us to say hello

So hello to you Malte Mustang

Now we're heading out there 
and catch some cod

This food fight is deadly serious

I've done some research 
for the best recipe for cod

During the last 12 months back home

and also did som test cooking

It's not easy to beat Tobbe when it
comes down to cod

You need to catch the best fish aswell

with firm meat and not cod
with worms in it

I need a good Skrei Cod

You might wonder what Skrei cod is

You might've read it on a menu

Skrei cod is almost like a regular cod
with some differences

It's the same species but

the Skrei Cod lives far out in the sea
during most of the year

besides now when the come
in here to mate

It's the only time when we can catch them

They swim all their life

which make their meat extra good

You can catch these Skrei Cods
from january to April

One small catch going up here to Norway
this time of year

the weather!

It can be extremely windy
with big waves

And often the fishing is better
far out in the sea

We're here with Catch fishing trips
at camp Steinfjord

We have a few spots that are really
good even close to shore

even if it's windy out there

our plan for today is to head out
as far as possible

If it's to windy we'll head back in and
fish closer to shore

The most fun will be to beat Edvin
in this food fight

It's time to jump in the boat and
catch the best cod

We're just outside the fjord now

and found a good shallower spot
where we thing the fish are

we're gonna be driving around
and look for fish on the sonar

It's bumpy today

We found a lot of fish here

first try for Skrei cod now

I'm gonna fish with. a tail that
I've developed myself

I think it will work for cod

especially cod to eat

I got one straight away

- it's easy when you find them
- what a strike!

- you had one?
- yeah, so hard

Fish for 2 minutes and then we have fish

No I lost it!

No food for Edvin

I'm already hungry

Here it comes

It's a really nice Skrei Cod

a perfect size to eat

this is almost 2-3 meals

maybe 3kg

No need to be bigger to get really
nice cod filets

Unhook this one

You need to empty them from blood
straight away

I'll use my knife from Morakniv

This one actually floats

No worries if I drop it

We'll do like this

I'll do a cut here, and it's blood will
run out

This is my tray now, Edvin can have
his own

I'm loosing all my fish

It's me in a nutshell
always unlucky at first

But then

Tobbe is LT, Lucky Tobbe

If I'm gonna beat Edvin this time
I need a few cods

To see which one is the best

Big one!

What the?

- Is it a halibut?
- could be

I think it's a halibut

No points for that one

But fun to catch them

- I think it's a fish
- me too

- smart comment huh?
- yeah you are so smart

It just runs again

It can't be a cod

Must be a halibut

A good thing that Tobbe get tired
from fishing halibuts

To not be able to catch the 
real good cod ones

I really hope it's a halibut

I had something on

here it comes Edvin

- what is it?
- I don't know

here it comes

It's a big cod!

- is it?
- no a halibut

a nice one

Let's see if we can grab it

- come on Edvin
- I'm trying

it's not that easy

I got it!

It's so heavy

- nice one Tobbe
- thanks

See how far out the lure is?

like that

a halibut like this is a great fish to eat

But in February they are not allowed
to catch and take home

they are not allowed until April 1st

So this one needs to go back

Even though I really would've wanted
to eat this one

I need to do something now

I will have to change lure

and try something completely different

look at this one, a squid

looks really cool with these tentacles

The cod will like this one

down it goes

It smells like Skrei now

This is the life, be in the boat and
fish for cod

and look at this scenery

the sun is out and the mountains
are filled with snow

Almost feels like a movie

I got one now!

Tobbe!?

It's big!

I think so

I told you, when I catch one
it's a big one

no small fish filets for me

This one is big

- what is it? a cod?
- biggest of the day

It's a cod

It doesn't run like a halibut

I can see something
It's big

something huge down there

- you see that?
- I can see

It's just white

last push now

that's not a small one

just get it in the boat now

I got it!

I can barely lift it

come on, lift it

What a cod Edvin!

This is Skrei fishing for real

SO much fun

My first cod is this one

It fills my whole tray

It must be closer to 12kg

That felt so good, No need for me
to fish anymore

it's dinner for 7-8 persons
