Wild Dolphins

A freediving roadtrip is always a good time. Especially if you get company in the water by two dolphins who doesn't seem to have a care in the world. The Norwegian Westcoast really knows how to put on a show sometimes. Me and Thomas Grindevoll  met up with spearfishing guru Örjan Dyrnes who,besides from being a friendly and relaxed guy, knows exactly where to dive.The dolphins were in a small bay just by the magnificent Atlantic Road which is a pretty cool place even without dolphins. But happy happy times! A nice break from the pool..



After the first session in the water it was lunch at Örjans house. Fresh Scallops caught by Thomas. Then it was out by boat to some good hunting grounds in search for Cod, Pollack and Coalfish. And more Scallops.
Örjan knows the places. This 25.2 kg Cod is from a previous dive.


After 10 minutes of diving he had caught a 7.5 kg and a 3 kg Pollack. Just like that.
No one was going to starve on this trip..

Great great times, and I will surely invite myself up there again soon.
Now I need some rest  and then head back to the lovely chlorine..
