Still good cod fishing

The last days we have had a group of Russians visiting us here at Adventure Camp Mehamn. They were here last September fishing halibuts and now they are here in April catching big cods. Now the cods have moved closer to the coast and are swimming at so shallow water as 30 meters. Several times we have seen and caught big cods just under the boat!

Now we have two guys from a Swedish school named Jakob and Anders at the camp and they are going to learn how to be professional fishing guides.  They are going to be here for three weeks.

Yesterday we showed them the fishing we have here in Mehamn harbor, we caught four plaices during only one hours fishing.

long but quite thin cod

And here it is, 17 kilo!
