To celebrate such magnificent fish in a legendary setting and a long friendship, you are both fortunate and wise indeed. Thank you for the film, the release of such singular fish and your story telling. I look forward to seeing more. Best regards from the USA.
Hakan by NASCO The Weight of your Fish is Estimated to be the Big 50, but i think you could add another 5 at least. What a film!!. Thanks again from the Salmon fly fishers of the UK.
What an epic battle with a monster fish ..... sooooo glad you were able to film this. It would be hard to envision such a fish without this video. Thank you Mikael and Hakan, and especially your photographer.
Well done guy's! Now that's friendship.... Mikael exhausting yourself rowing that boat to make sure your buddy got his " fish of a lifetime. " Happy Birthday Hakan 😀 Now it's time to wind up Mikael about catching his wee trout lol! Until next time guy's " Take care "😉
Wow! A 50-60lb Atlantic salmon is something that you may only experience once in a lifetime. Thanks for sharing this with us. I am blessed to have some decent rivers around me but none that come close to the mighty Alta
everything in this video is just so beautiful. I just started fly fishing a couple month ago. I wish I can have an experience lik this. much respect from Japan.
Great video, congratulations! I read the article about this fishing trip in Chasing Silver magazine and now I could see it on video and all I can say is awesome, amazing, great,...!!! Thight lines from Austria
Awesome video and fishing!! I’m in Washington state, USA and lucky to catch fish half that size. I got a 26lb Chinook this year out fishing in Westport. Was awesome.
The closest I'll ever get to the Alta. Mind you, I'm lucky to live in a part of the world where fishing is not just for the rich.... Cheers for the experience!
Wow, insane! Well done, you guys are really know some good spots. You got that massive salmon on a fly and rod. Unbelievable! Good thing you got the video, didn't think salmon got that big anymore.
There was doubt in his voice that the birthday boy could catch such a magnificent fish on a Banana 🍌 Pig 🐖 . Well I guess he was wrong , at least he did not cut the leader . What are friends for :-) Happy Trails
Have to watch this video every six months just to remind myself that such places, such fish, and such friendships exist. Wonderful.
Thank You! ...and yes the best friend & biggest fish on the best river!
Totally agree. Fantastic
Stunning fish Håkan and what a birthday present, not forgetting Mikael for being a great friend and Ghillie...ATB Davie..
Oh, beautiful boat!
Norway has to be the best scenery in the world , this is now on my bucket list , they salmon are like torpedoes 😬love from Scotland 🏴
Utterly amazing, well done Harkan and your Ghillie Mikael! What lifetime memories are made of.

These guys are badass! I love the foul language and honesty. Hope when I’m older I’m as cool. Seriously enjoy these dudes
I watch a lot of videos. This is one of the best. Captures what fishing with friends is about. Well done.
Mikael is a master, no question. And the doku from the fish farm problem was one of the greatest move's what i ever see. Respekt .

Fishing heaven
good big fish bravo de france
way much better than canadian atlantic salmon. dream fish and crazy landscape
Lovely traditionally built boat!

bravooo!!!!
Wish we had fish like that on the Colombia. Maybe a Patagonia documentary will help?
Atlantic salmon is the finest fish.
The Colombia, Elwha and Hoh had fish like that until it was damned, now you have to go way north into BC or the Kenai!
