1Episode 1 - GotlandMartin Falklind and Emilie Björkman go to Gotland in search of the silver of the sea - the sea trout. It is spring and the sea trout are moving into shallower waters, this is when there is a chance to catch the really big and shiny fish. But fishing is a test of patience and requires many hours of wading in the cold water. The coast is 800 kilometers long and in addition to finding the fish, you also have to get it to bite. To help them, the program hosts have one of Sweden's leading sea trout fishermen Nicka Hellenberg and musician Pernilla Andersson, a dedicated fisherman who is trying sea trout fishing for the first time.
2Episode 2 - RautasMartin Falklind goes to Norrbotten to experience the "Rautas premiere". For a few weeks a year, fishing is allowed on Lake Rautasjaure outside Kiruna, and the premiere weekend itself attracts hundreds of visitors eager to fish. Most stay for a few days on the lake and live in so-called "arks", specially built tents adapted for the purpose. Martin meets Eva-Lisa and Jim Eriksson, among others, who have been at the premiere for decades. But despite their experience, the fishing is slow and the temperature sometimes drops to minus 20 degrees, but that does not stop the most dedicated fishermen.
3Episode 3 - ForshagaakademinMartin Falklind and Emilie Björkman head to Värmland to visit the Forshaga Academy, one of Sweden's few hunting and fishing schools. There they meet, among others, student Mia Bagger and fishing guide and former student Jonas Asplund. Together they will try to get a "Predator Grand Slam", i.e. a pike perch, a perch and a pike. But the weather is against it and the heavy rain makes it all a real fishing adventure. But despite the hardships, there is always time for memorable laughs.
4Episode 4 - KengisEmilie Björkman goes to Kengi's mill outside Pajala to try to catch one of the first migrating salmon in the spring. The dream of the big shiny salmon drives salmon fishermen to cast around the clock, a stubborn job that requires a steel forehead. There is certainly something special about experiencing the Torne River, one of our last untouched rivers, and seeing the midnight sun turn on the horizon. Emilie fishes together with her mentor Lars Munch, the Dane who fell in love with the wild river and has become one of Sweden's top salmon fishermen. Martin Falklind is of course involved remotely and tries to bring fishing luck in his own way.
5Episode 5 - SaxnäsEmilie Björkman has been invited to Saxnäs to experience something called "Prime time". It is the fishing guide Guhuru Milta who has found a place where the fish are not normally found, but where they come at a certain time of day to eat. Emilie has brought her fishing buddy Kristian Matsson from Dalarna. Kristian is not primarily known for his fishing, but more for his music which has been a big hit both in Sweden and internationally. Then under the artist name "The tallest man on earth". There will be a lot of fly fishing talk, when Guhuru shows his lifelike flies and self-made split-cane rods.
6Episode 6 - VänernIn the middle of Lake Vänern lies a small island called Lurö. Martin Falklind has come here to find the really big pike. He has Per Ola Johannesson to help him. PO has fished all over the world, but has recently focused entirely on pike, especially in Lake Vänern where the chance of catching the really big fish is good. But the wind and high waves are causing problems and forcing them to change their fishing strategy. Instead of fishing in the shallows, they have to look for so-called "kelp forests", areas with vegetation where the pike like to stay. Bait maker Lasse "Modemgurka" Sjöblom shows off his homemade lures, with a little luck maybe one of them will help in the hunt for the old pike?
7Episode 7 - TjuonajokkEmilie Björkman and Martin Falklind dream of experiencing fishing in Tjuonajokk, between Kiruna and Gällivare, far from civilization. Beautifully located nestled between mountain peaks, right next to the Kaitumälven River, it is one of our last untouched rivers. The area is known all over the world for its fantastic grayling fishing, but here you can also catch nice pike and trout. For a few days here, Emilie and Martin's dream comes true in spades. The grayling are willing to bite and they get to cast at pikes that appear right at the boat. To help them, they have guides Robert Hansson and Marie Luise Salis Samaden who share their best fly fishing tips for luring the pike and grayling onto the hook.
8Episode 8 - Stockholm City FishingWe get to go city fishing in Stockholm. Few capital cities have as good fishing as our capital. Guides Jean Jältsten and Peter Berggren take the hosts Emilie Björkman and Martin Falklind on a concrete fishing trip they will never forget! Outside Gröna Lund, both pike and perch are biting. Martin and Jean find old boat wrecks that have created new hiding places for the fish. In Stockholm's waters, you also have a chance to catch pike-perch! Later in the afternoon, the gang heads to Stockholm's stream, where the city of Stockholm stocks between 20-30,000 trout each year. Salmon are also stocked to maintain the good fishing in the city. When dusk falls, the fishermen remain in the stream, surrounded by the castle on one side and the pulse of the city on the other. When night falls, the neon signs in the water shine, a very different fishing experience!
