Cod and flies please

As we're experiencing a somewhat blustery period here in Copenhagen I felt some reminiscing of the more productive times were in order. October 2010 was a particular good time for some fly fishing for cod (torsk) off Amagerstrand. While cod are not a particularly sought-after quarry for fly fishers, late evenings in the summer/autumn months on the coast of the Øresund sees the arrival of large shoals of cod hunting their evening foodstuff, making for some exciting sport!

This evening's brace fell to a tanned shrimp imitation, although they were evidently feeding on other prey.

Great fighters on a 5wt!
