First proper trip, packed up the car with fishing tackle family (Mrs Labrador, her mum & Rolo) & headed to Harwich to catch the overnight ferry to the Hoek van Holland. Two day's driving later we arrived at our better place for a whole four weeks of peace, quiet, fishing, canoeing & generally playing in the forest! Unfortunately there were still some jobs to do but hopefully there aren't too many more. After settling in for a couple of days to get over the drive I decided it was time to go for a walk in the woods to check out a few places to fish. First lake I visited was Simsjon. I parked close to a small hunting Stuga which had it's own smallbore rifle range! I Walked into the woods past an Algjakt blind, crossing winter snowmobile trails & over the bridge where the lake flows into the Simean. Over the bridge & on through more dense woodland with plenty of Alg sign to a small peninsula where I found an unoccupied fishing Stuga. Later that afternoon I drove on to Simmesjon which is known for it's quality as a trout fishery & where later on I'd be paddling around in a float tube..................(TBC)
