Danish Peder Langkjær manage yesterday for the second time to crack a Thirty Pounder. In 2012 Peder manage to land a 34lb Salmon in Golden Pool during his first visit to Umba. Yesterday Peder did it again – In Pine pool he hook a magnificent salmon that took Peder on a thrilling 400 meters ride down to Island pool where his Guide Farit could net and scale the “Beast”. Peder was using a small Thunder & Lightning tube fly Zonker style fished on a Skagit Line and a T 8 Sinking tip. An extra twist to the whole story is that Peder caught his fish on a self-made fly reel similar to the famous Hardy Perfect reel.
Stay tuned,
