Nytt isfiskekonsept. Mormyskafiske med attraktor. Blinken er laget av plast og er vektløs i vann. Forsiktig fisk kan dermed dra avgårde med kroken uten å merke motstand. Blinken festes til snøret med duppstoppere og kan flyttes opp og ned på snøret etter behov.
Blinken kan også brukes som attraktor på ulike måter ved sommerfiske. Read more

During the 2020 season 233 fishing licenses were sold (2019: 448) and 1626 fishes were reported on Gjerfloen Flyfishing (2019: 2035). 1 grayling + 50 cms is reported. This season was influenced by corona restrictions, and we had very few fishermen from Sweden. In September and October we had some very good Norwegian fishermen here and the average catch per day was significantly up.
