-
This is not your regular fishing trip
-
This is Vättern
-
Swedens second biggest lake
-
It's deep and full of predators
-
Team Galant are ready to deal
with the giants of this lake
-
We're doing it with the trolling
legend himself, Rade
-
He knows every deep edge, school
and hunting areas in the lake
-
We're getting onboard on Scandinavias
probably biggest trolling boat
-
Our goal is Salmon, Arctic char
and sea trout
-
It's really hard to catch all 3 of
them in one single day
-
3 species and one gigantic boat
-
And some people who think they
know what they're doing
-
the lures are in the water
and the coffea is hot
-
what can possibly go wrong?
-
Welcome onboard
this will be fun
-
or it'll be chaos
-
probably both
-
It's jumping
-
Big!
-
But first we'll read some of your comments
-
The first one is from Kenny who would
like is to out the date in the description
-
We could do that but we might as
well just say the date in the video
-
So this video when we're out trolling
is filmed in January
-
Adrian want us to tell his fishing buddy DT
to stop carrying his wifes purses
-
And start fishing again
-
I'm on your side Adrian,
drop the purses DT
-
and grab the fishing rod instead
-
Our last comment is from Samuel
-
what happened with the serious
fishing that we told to do
-
I did say at the start of the year to stop
do as many challenges
-
and more serious fishing
-
I really think we have, this video
is serious
-
we've been on Vänern and fished for
big pikes in a video coming soon
-
We're gonna mix it up this year
-
challenges and serious fishing
-
But now it's time to head out there
-
It's always special when you arrive
at Vättern early in the morning
-
You got that feeling inside
-
We're heading out there for the hole day
-
and probably catch some big fish
-
Salmon, sea trouts and arctic chars
-
they are so beautiful and strong
-
I've got a great feeling about today
-
I've never caught a salmon in a lake before
-
Only in one river, Bergeforsen
-
My goal for the day is to catch
my first salmon in a lake
-
that would've beens o much fun
-
we've decided to head out
there with Rade from trolling.se
-
He got some really cool gear on his boat
-
cinema chairs, huge TV
from a small boat to a huge one
-
We can enjoy a movie and eat popcorn
-
- cinema chairs?
- yes
-
He's lying
-
I can see him over there in the boat
-
It's time to head out
-
I didn't lie
, he actually has cinema chairs
-
I want to trick him to think that
I'm lying
-
Hi there, any salmons in the boat today?
-
That we will try
-
do you think we're catching any salmon?
-
If not, any arctic char?
-
or third any sea trouts?
-
It's a great period for salmon so we
aim for that
-
we rig for salmon and have
arcitc char and sea trout as a bonus
-
- There are cinema chairs in there
- I told you
-
I really thought you where just kidding
-
You even got a soda holder on them
-
We need to be comfortable when
you're out with Rade
-
this might be the biggest salmon
boat on Vättern
-
It's huge
-
this is trolling.se standard
-
we even got movie screens
with the sonar on it
-
more fun than the cinema
-
The best time to catch all 3 species
is during winter
-
when the water is cold
-
Vättern is 130km long, 30 km wide
-
and the deepest spot is 128m
-
a lot of spots for the fish to hide
-
you need to have the lures in the water
and cover as much area as possible
-
Let's go now
-
We'll start with a wobbler on the surface
-
We just got out here and all of a sudden
Rade rigged all the rods
-
Are the salmon close to shore
this time of year?
-
is that why we start fishing already?
-
You can have this one Tobbe
release it like 220 feet
-
I'll start at the other side
-
It's been great fishing from shore
lately
-
There's been some good reports
the winter has been mild
-
- How many rods do we have? 12?
- it's 10
-
we're gonna have 6 rods on the surface
-
and 4 rods going deeper
2 on each side
-
we have a counter on these trolling reels
-
so 220 feet is around 70 meters
-
Rade has got really good track record
-
we've caught fish every time we've
been on the water with him
-
But salmon, arctic char and trout is
hard to cath
-
we need to have the lures in the water
as quick as possible
-
we can show you later what
lures we're using
-
Fish!
-
That didn't take long
-
I wonder if it's salmon, trout
or arctic char
-
But I can see it's shiny
-
- looks like an arctic char
- you think?
-
it comes slowly
-
it's an arctic char
-
or a sea trout
-
we didn't even have
all the rods in the water
-
But this is fun
-
They are strong
-
The take was really good
-
so sick, we haven't even fished
for more than 5 minutes
-
feels like a great start of the day
-
It took on this spoon
a green one
-
Nice Tobbe,
you got the first fish of the day
-
I was stuck in the cinema chair
-
next one might be mine then
-
arctic char is one of my favourite fish
-
they are so beautiful
-
they are more silver here in Vättern
-
if you fish them in arctic lakes
they are really red
-
a beautiful one but not the
most beautiful I've seen
-
a perfect fish to eat
-
they need to be minimum 50cm
-
let's measure this one later but
it's definiltey over 50cm
-
I've got the knife with me here
-
Important if you want the best meat
-
to drain them from all blood
-
I'll use the Morakniv
-
let's do it outside the boat
-
- we don't want to ruin Rades boat
- no we don't want blood everywhere
-
I'll cut just below the geels
oh it's so sharp
-
like that
-
This knife handle is made of cork
so I could drop it and it will float
-
and you can just get it
-
a perfect knife for fishing
-
This was really nice
-
You can sit in here with now wind
-
and you can have a look at
the rods
-
This is life
-
Fish!
-
It pulls
-
let's go
-
so much fun
-
I wonder what it is, arctic char
or a salmon this time?
-
imagine my first salmon on a lake
-
I don't want to push it to hard
-
they can have soft mouth
you need to be careful
-
a pike, zander or perch you can
just reel them in
-
You need to be careful with these fish
-
here it comes
-
I can see it
-
Is it my first salmon?
-
It's a salmon!
-
It's a salmon!
-
come on now
-
YES!
-
what a nice salmon
-
I can't believe it
-
- it's fat
- it's beautiful
-
- congrats Edvin
- thank you
-
My first salmon from a lake
-
It's really fat and nice Edvin
-
- it's well fed
- you can say that
-
Look at this fish
-
I'm so happy now
-
such a nice fish
-
The salmon was close to 4kg
-
and after just 1 hour of fishing
we've caught 2/3 species
-
the last few year there have been
so many salmon in Vättern
-
back in the days there where
fewer salmon here
-
but higher average weight
-
the worlds biggest salmon caught in
a lake was 20,4kg
-
and was caught here in Vättern
-
from shore by Dennis Gustafsson 1997
-
In that time a salmon even close
to that haven't been caught
-
But on a good day you might catch
up to 10 salmon
-
we where not the only ones
fishing just this day
-
Vättern is the second biggest lake
in Sweden
-
a popular lake to fish
-
you can be out trolling like this
-
but also fish from land and cast
-
then you need long rods to
cast far out
-
I can see 10 people here behind us
-
It's fun when you can vary your fishing
-
you don't need a boat to fish for salmon
-
When you're out trolling at Vättern
-
we have different lures than we're used to
-
here we have some special lures
-
I've got 3 different types here
-
the first one is a spoon
-
pretty thin and moves a lot
-
then we have this type
-
looks like a bleak
-
try to look like a real fish
-
as you can see it's bent
-
It spins when you fish with it
-
and lure more fish
-
at last we have this one
-
It looks really special
-
it's plastic and weighs almost nothing
-
it's very irratic in the water
-
so 3 different lures with
3 different movements
-
and you can figure out what they
want just that day
