Joe Schmitz – Sweden Sweden

Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia

Fish Caught: Pike, Northern

If I could have just one fishing lure in my tackle box, it would be the Mepps Aglia dressed #5 Silver/Brown. B5ST S-BR

It consistantly catch pike and large perch. For big pike, I rely on the Mepps Giant Killer.

Matthew G. Hauge – West Coast Of Norway, Swedish Lakes & Rivers Sweden

Lure: Thunder Bug

Fish Caught: Grayling - Pike, Northern - Trout, Brown - Trout, Sea/Speckled

I have used the Thunder Bug spinner in several colors and sizes. The Blue Tail Fly/silver color is perfect for sea trout. If the fish are there, they take it. Also, the regular brown trout are glad to see one of these spinners. Either brown or yellow in March. I have caught 15-20 brown trout within a couple of hours fishing. A little trick to stop the spinner from twisting the line is to bend the eye 30-45 degrees. Be careful not to bend the shaft below the twisting, or you will end up with a spinner that doesn't work at all. Bending the eye down a little not only stop the lure from twisting the line, but also makes it go in the water in a S formation. The fly lies straight out behind the lure, the eye follows the line, and the body lies in a 30-45 degree angle. Some times the lure will even fish much better after performing this little trick. Some Dragon Fly nymphs have this position when swimming in the open water, or when they are ready to strike a pray.
The larger size of spinner triggers the Swedish pike to strike, as well as the European common Perch.
