After The Man

It’s been 13 years since Running Down The Man came out in 2006. After over a decade, fly fishing for Roosterfish from the beach has held its challenging allure for anglers in Baja.

Springtime on Bornholm

For many years I went sea trout fishing on the Danish island Bornholm every spring with a group of friends. It's a great place to fish.

The pike that stared

This was one of those fish that staid glued to my inner eye for a long time. The largest pike I ever caught gave up a very good and pretty harrowing fight.

School of roach

I'm not picky when it comes to fishing and any day I can catch 12-15 fish is a good day - even when the fish are humble roach.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
