>>8514204Ooh, hunting in low light. In the morning dew or in the evening dusk, in the twilight. I am a free man. :DDD
I have Valmet, Sako and Haenel rifles (I sold my Tikka recently) in 7.62x39, .243 Winchester and 22lr respectively. I have heavily invested in low light scopes (non-NV/IR) and Ase Utra suppressors. I shoot nocturnal game like deer, buck and rabbits, and seasonal waterfowl by stalking them. Never shot a Nordic elk (dead weight literally a ton), nor a bear, nor a wolf :DDD
Fishing! I have at least 50+ baitcasting reels, 30+ spinners.
And a Legendary Daiwa GC100 Gold Cast spincasting reel on an 8' Ugly Stik trolling rod. All of my nephews and nieces have learned on how to toss a bait with that particular Daiwa/Ugly Stik combo and have also caught fish with it. Nordic pike, nordic perch, sea bream etc.
Japan Tackle is the place where I today find my fishing reels and rods.
https://japantackle.com/I have also sold some Nordic specialties and rarities to them, because they have a customer base with a taste for unique stuff.
>you need to become friends with them though, ok?Baits, well, our Finnish hand made bait industry is more than enough. I am unable to follow it all.
However, if you want a dead sure shot hard baits, I can give you three:
>Smeds 17 (model 17) spoon, full silver, 22 grams. These are early 90's production line. These catch Everything from 100 gram sea roach to 19 kilo river salmon. Get one. Don't risk it ever unless you really Really want that scaled motherfucker out there. >Abu Toby Tiger, yellow black, 28 grams. Multiple catches of all sorts all over the World. Easy to find. Get two.>Rapala Fat Rap crank bait/deep runner, chrome top red belly. You retrieve these fast, wait a sec, retrieve, wait a sec etc. You can also troll with these for lake steelhead and alike, the weather doesn't matter. Get five of these in all sizes. I love cooking. I grow herbs and spices, I hunt and fish. I have plum and apple trees giving crops.
