FISHING IS NOT JUST ABOUT CATCHING FISH, IT IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT, respect all living creatures and environments, is the creed all angler should live by

River Tidan, (Baltak) and some nice river Rainbows

Niklas Dahlin, a good friend from Sweden arranged for all the flyters at Sportfiskemassan, which is the Swedish sports fishing show held in Spring each year, we had two superb days on Baltak, with the best group of anglers you could ever meet.
The first day saw blue skies and sunshine, a really lovely Spring day, I fished with another good friend Martin Angnell, Martin knows every stone and current on Baltak, I hooked five fish, netting just one, but lost one which was BIG, a truly memorable day thanks to the Swedish boys.
Three days later, I was again on Baltak, this time with Hakan Karsnaser, a truly amazing flytyer and fisherman, that morning I was lucky enough to hook 9 fish netting 8, but every one of these ran out of the pool, down the rapids, which meant I had to run along the bank to the next pool, slide down a snow bank into the river, then play the fish in the pool.
These were some of the most beautiful Rainbows I had ever seen, the river was easy to get to, the bonus is flights from the Uk are around 2hrs  accommodation is readily available right next to the water, a tackle shop is fully stocked at Hokensas, the guys in the shop are SO helpful too.
Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.
