For a couple of thousand years, Good Friday has, a few dates here or there in the tradition, had a somber and subdued tone. Christianity is the largest world religion with 2,6 billion followers. I am one, although my God is rather about the inexplicable miracle called Creation, which is especially noticeable now. Out of one, cubic millimeter large, seed, a whole pine tree can grow up and live for hundreds of years. Life arises anew or resurrects from hibernation. On winter's bare genar the coming splendor of leaves has crouched, waiting for the right moment to form the rich splendor of the friendly verdure. Dawn has given way to darkness; the days become more spacious for the content of life.
We were gifted with core ice in December and the pimp fishing picked up in the intervening days with shallow fishing. Which it is now? 'Just a little if even that', said about the char fishing on Grundsjön. Many thanks for those reports, say we in the boards of Långåfisket and Grundsjöprojektet. If there is 'little', it is a sign of life that there is natural reproduction of the unique Grundsjörðing. Protected for its uniqueness and its multi-thousand-year pedigree.
A group from Norduppland has been here for the twentieth year. They weren't supposed to be fishing here, but that's how it happened, and thus a lifelong relationship arose with the annual tradition of spending one or a couple of weeks mainly at Grundsjön. 'And?’, I said, 'yeah, yesterday was really good. Six chars around forty and a small'. Of course I was happy, especially for 'the little one'.
Within a week or so, the next generation of our original fish will be launched. It is nature that takes care of the miracle. For several years now, we have completely left the miracle to someone who can!
Sweden is a country rich in good sport fishing. As best we can, we try to contribute to that. However, the one thing we can guarantee is that it's only a matter of time before you catch one of our wild precious fish. Welcome! And welcome again!
Happy Easter!
