It's official. There is literally and figuratively something in the Netherlands water. If you've been paying close attention the last 6 months on the Chum - the Dutch are commanding a global respect for an extraordinary level of fishiness. The Chum invites the rest of the world to represent.
Here's the entry email as we received it:
Hi ,
On our one week saltwater flyfishing trip to mid-Norway , this was one of many pollack we caught (this one is de largest we caught...can be a Norwegian record on fly tackle , but can't find any info about that on the internet). Doesn't matter though , it's a monster , it was a great fight and moment , and it's swimming the Norwegian fjords again. My fishingbuddy Eric van de Berg was the lucky angler.
Good one for slab of the month September i think.
Cornelis van Leeuwen,
The Netherlands
