Johan
Abelsson
Johan
started young, fishing for pike and perch in the small lakes
around Kroneberg in Småland (Sweden). The first time
he went salmon fishing with a fly was in Mörrumsån
in 1971, just 12 years old. In his youth, he'd fish for
more or less anything and everything. Large pike in Trosa
archipelago, asp in the small streams in central Sweden,
bream and roach in Karlbergs canal (Stockholm), cod in Öresund
and burbot and pike-perch in Mälaren. Johan Abelsson
is the man who caught the first salmon in the modern age
sport fishing in Stockholm's stream in the late 70's. Since
then, he's caught over 4000 salmon in Norway, Russia, Scotland,
Sweden and Iceland. He also caught 5 salmon over 20kg trolling
in östersjön and holds Stockholm's record of 26,88kg,
and also caught salmon weighing over 20kg with fly in Sweden
and Norway. In 1982, Johan started up an agency that arranged
fishing trips to Trosa, where the big pike live. He's been
pioneer in helping to develop and build a sports fishing
tourism for salmon in the 'arch angel' area, in Russia and
also Kazakhstan. Johan has fished in many countries including,
Argentina, USA, Alaska and British Columbia. You can say
that he has indulged in some serious fishing around the
globe. At the moment, he is having fun fishing for pike
in östersjön and the larger lakes.
Johan
has over 20 years experience working within the sports fishing
industry at an international level. He sits on the board
of the SEFF (Swedish fishing board) and also for 'Mer Lax
i Vättern' (More Salmon in Vättern) Johan is also
co-owner and one of the founders in Wild Water Fishing.

Kristian Keskitalo
Kristian
was born and partly grew up in northern Finland. He was
born into a fishing family, and has had fishing as a large
interest for most of his life. Grayling and salmon were
the main targets during the summertime. He has experienced
fishing for salmon in Kolahalvön and also salt water
fished in Mexico. He lives between Vänern and Vättern;
just a stones throw away from the trolling fishing in these
lakes. He has many years experience under his belt as a
fishing guide in the lakes as well as östersjön.
His passion is northern Norway where he has really earned
his stripes as a fishing guide. Huge cod, halibut and coalfish
are his greatest triumphs during his trips to Röst.
Kristian
won the ABU's prize in 2002 with a record sej caught by
fly, he guided towards the 2004 prize of a 28kg cod. He
is regarded as the most skillful fisherman of the northern
region with a high competence of fishing for halibut.
The
last 15 years he has worked in the sale of electrical goods
to large industries in Sweden, and the last 5 years he has
been a sales leader and now manager. The thought of waking
up each morning to a day on the seas was too tempting to
stay a dream, and so in the winter of 2005, he decided on
full time fishing.
Kristian
is a full time guide and part owner in Wild Water Fishing
AB. He is also the leader of our fishing camp up in Röst,
Norway.
