Norway’s salmon season has begun today (June 1) with a 28-pound specimen.
Opening day Gaula salmon caught this morning (June 1) caught by Jouni Rauha.
Whilst most UK rivers struggle with low-flows, poor runs, and depressing news of a poor spring-run, Norway’s salmon season, which opens on June 1, has begun with a bang.
On the Gaula river, near Trondheim, this 28-pound fish was landed on the first morning of the season.
Measuring 109cm (43 inches) in length, it weighed 13kg, or 28lb.
It was caught by Jouni Rauha.
