Just before St. Hans Eve, the precipitation period both farmers & salmon fishermen in Stjørdal have been waiting for finally arrived! And with almost perfect water levels, many beautiful salmon have been caught in the river in recent days - just go to the river's salmon exchange and see - http://stjordalselva.no
For a farmer who himself (not yet!!) has never experienced pulling such a creature out of the strong water current, it is just as magical every year to run your hand along the shiny fish and marvel at how beautiful it is, and how completely adapted it is to life in the sea and this particular river ....
