Statistics based on the fishermen's catchreports 2002 - 2004

From the statistics below it is most interesting to see that the number of + 35 cm fishes are growing. In the year 1999, the year before we started Gjerfloen Flyfishing, testfishing showed that only 10 % of the graylings were + 35 cm. And now, in 2004 the percentage is 34!

940 fishes in the different lenght groups 2004

708 fishes in the different lenght groups 2003

1043 fishes in the different lenght groups 2002

I was discussing this matter the other day with an old man, living all his 92 years on the bank of this river. He had never ever seen such a low water in the beginning of June! It might perhaps also be of interest that at Plassen we have had only 13.3 mm of rain since 1st of May!

Report 2nd of June. Flow down to 69 m3/s. Perfect fishing conditions!

Report 31st of May. Flow down to 70 m3/s this morning. Watertemp. 10,5 C degrees. Very good fishing conditions.

Report 30th of May. Flow down to 71 m3/s this morning. This is a extremely low flow so early in the season, but it is perfect for the fish and for the fishermen. The graylings have been rising in large numbers the last couple of days, but no fishermen have been observed (this phenomena might also be an advantage for the fish...)

Report 29th of May. The flow down to 78 m3/s this morning. Nice weather and very good flyfishing conditions. Afternoon and early evening are the best periods for fishing at the moment.

Report 28th of May. Waterflow down to 80 m3/s and watertemp. 9 C degrees this morning. Nice weather and rising watertemp is predicted the days ahead. These facts indicates perfect conditions for flyfishing this weekend.

Report 27th of May. Waterflow down 5 m3/s to 85 m3/s this morning. The sun is shining again and flyfishing conditions are very good! Some good graylings showed their backfinns before noon today.

Report 26th of May. The first graylings are obsreved rising at Plassen! Even if we have had cold weather for a long period now there has been some hatching. Warmer weather are predicted from now on and I'm sure that those who have the opportunity to present their dryflies here the comming weekend will go home with some wonderful memories. The waterflow today is 90 m3/s, the same level we had in the beginning of of July last year. This means that most of the hotspots are wadeable.

Report 16th of May. The waterlevel is going rapidly down. The waterflow in the Trysil river is at the moment less than 150 m3/s. This level is what is normal about the 10th of June. If we get some more sun now, we might see the backfinns of the first graylings about the 20th of May. This is 3 weeks earlier than normal. Reports will be comming.

Report 2nd of May. We have had a very early spring again this year. I shall not be astonished if the first graylings show their backfin as early as the 25th of May (Normally we see the first rings on the water between the 5th and the 10th of June). It might as well be that we get a June like the year 2002, the hatching of the different insects appeared nearly two weeks before normal. Info will come on this website.
