Redfish Øyvind Høier went up by outside Sørvær on Sørøya in Finnmark Friday night weighed 9.2 kg. According to the website hooked.no this is the largest spectator is pulled up with a rod in Norway. With the exception of a few fish that are ripped up by Heidrun platform in the Norwegian Sea.

It writes Nordlys.

– I had an old uerpers of 6.8 kilograms, and the goal of trip north was to beat this. That it was going to go, I had a hope, but that it would become such a big fish I had never dreamed of, says the 31-year-old great fisherman from Tromso to Hooked.

Dream Fish

Høier from Tromsø and his fishing gang calling themselves Team Fire, and are well known in fishing communities in Norway. Over the years there have been several large beasts. Including a halibut at 162.5 kg and a plaice of 4.4 kilo, writes Hooked. Yet the spectator projecting highest when catches should be ranked.

– This is undoubtedly one dream fish. I’m still a little shocked, he says the website.

Record

The goal this year was to saw the old uerpersen of 6.8 kilograms, and then the sea off the South Island is the perfect place shall we believe sport fishermen themselves. This can be said to be new Norwegian record when the old was at 9.02. It should be noted that this is based on the mainland. Among other things, caught a redfish from oil installation on the Halten Bank which weighed 12.14 kg.

fishing platform is according Hooked.no debated. It is not everyone who has a permit to fish from the platforms, and many believe that fish caught in such area should not count as official Norway records.

Deep Sea Fishing

And if you’re wondering spectator bet on, you Høier tell that it was a tandemtakkel suitable with whole mackerel page. But personally think he did not bait was so important.

– It seems like they take what is being served when they are bet, and it makes little difference whether the bait is large or small, he says to Hooked.

The fish was caught at about 300 meters depth.

– Swiftly was powerful and there was only gravity during cranking, so we figured it was redfish immediately. When the fish broke the surface at a distance from the boat, we saw that it was big, but how big it actually was we realized only when it was in the boat, telling Høier.
