hello lads

[Peter T]

hello lads, well i'm finally back on line and living in iceland. been pretty busy sorting out somewhere to live and a vehicle plus all the other stuff you need to do when you move to another country.

the weather has been a bit rough, we were going to go fishing last weekend but 20mph+ winds, rain hail sleet and snow put us off a bit the weather was so bad not even the commercial boats went out.

as soon as i start fishing [hopefully this weekend] i'll stick some pics up of what we catch.

all the best, Peter Thain

Iceland

Iceland

Hello Peter,

I,m just new to the forum and was wondering why have you moved to Iceland.
A couple of my mates at work are fed up and are emigrating to different places.
One family is off to Canada and the other to New Zealand ( if job applications are ok).
I have never heard of anyone moving to Iceland.
One thing is for certain i bet there is tons of fish up there.

Best wishes Mick Dunn (Consett,origanally a Hartlepool lad.)

thanks for all the support lads, did a little bit of work in a fish factory last week and the size of the cod coming through was unreal

some of the fillets weighed over 20lb!

found out where these fish were coming from, its a little bit of a drive to get there but it is definately on the hit list. saw a couple of halibut as well and you certainly wouldn't be fishing for them with a flattie fanatic and size 2 hooks...both weighed over 100kg each! found out where there are some of those and its within casting distance of the shore looks like i will be slide baiting with some 2lb coalies.

weather isn't too bad today, blue skies at the moment and light winds so maybe out for a fish later today or tommorow?

GOOD LUCK Peter mate, I hope you and the family enjoy your new life over there in Iceland, I can still remember the day you learnt me how to cast on Cambois beach and the Ziplex V1 you sold me, "Thankyou mate" my castings been pretty good ever since. Wish I had not lost the picture from my PC you took of me casting that day, happy days lol.

Take care mate
