Keeping busy

Well since ive been on holidays its been kinda hard to keep busy doing things that dont cost too much cash, as everyone has probably heard me bitch about it being expensive here and the whole working for free thing isnt realy helping my cause. So its been alot of catching up on movies, TV, mushroom picking, skating (now on a new board and wheels which is nice) and the newest of the not so expensive hobbies if fishing.

Fishing has been something that has kind of been lost to me in the last few years with all the travelling thats been going on and after looking into it and seeing pictures of all the big fish that get caught around here i decided to buy a cheap rod, some hooks and get back into it.

Denmark seems like a realy great place to fish with lots of possibilities for all types of fishing within an hour of copenhagen most acessable by public transport which is good.

It didnt take much convincing or time to get Brendan excited about the whole idea and he also got some gear and on tuesday we were off on the first copenhagen fishing trip even if it was only to the coast right near the main ports only a 30 min bike ride from home. It turned out to be a pretty amazing place with the sea on one side and vacant fields with a industrial buildings in the background on the other side, and we wernt the only ones who were there which i felt was good sign and Brendan to was as keen as ive ever seen anyone to catch dinner. In the end we spent about 8 hrs out there on the rocks in the sun only to Brendan loose a good sized fish in the rocks, land another no bigger than his lure and watch everyone else around us catch fish but i guess thats the way it goes sometimes and we will get them next time. So heres some pics i took of the day when i needed a break from all the hectic fishing that was being done..

So all in all it was a real nice chilled out day and i couldnt have thought of a better way to spend one of the few sunny days we´ve had here in the last weeks. Stay tuned for more stories about us trying to catch fish in copenhagen hopefully all the spots we find are as cool as this one.
