Cod Group Trip
Escorted Cod Fishing Soroya Norway
Another great escorted sea fishing holiday hosted by our Paul Stevens to Check out this escorted fishing holiday hosted by Paul Stevens to “The Land of the big fish”. Home to the real monster Cod, but why do they call it “The Land of the big fish” Well it’s no surprise when the fishing is as varied with fish approaching the maximum size possible for their species in these nutrient rich waters surrounding Sørøya. The cod fishing is truly exceptional and in 2008 more than 10 fish weighing over 60lbs were caught - The biggest cod of the season weighing in at an astounding 75lbs! To give you some idea about the fishing in Sørøya Cod around the 20k mark are considered small and quite often are released quickly with out pictures so the angler can get back down to try and catch a more trophy size fish. Again this trip will be based on a group of just 10 anglers with 5 per cabin and per boat, both Paul and one of our Norwegian full time guides will captain the boats allowing you to concentrate on getting amongst the fish.

India

Adrian, Ben, John and myself have just returned from what can only be described as a mind blowing trip to southern India in search of the famous mighty mahseer.

We got stuck in as soon as we arrived!


We had all read "Somewhere down the crazy river" at some time in our angling careers, and a big pat on the back for Adrian for suggesting that we needed to go now rather than later!

Hot (40 degrees plus) and dusty.....



Someone shouted Chilwar....we all shouted Chilwar!

Ben and John just pondering over the sheer beauty of the Cauvery, and perhaps where next to cast that monster ball of soft raggi........


A little white water to contend with, on most days.......



We all caught our fair share of fish, one guy had fish of 66 and 77 pounds, the fishing was nothing short of fantastic, we all caught Mahseer within an hour of arriving!!!!!!!

A location with a surprise under every stone, around every corner and on most casts, not for those with a nervous disposition........


A huge thanks to Dave Plumber for making this trip tick so many boxes! and Angling Direct Holidays for organising the trip.
