my
STORY
Like many others I started fishing when I was a kiddo with my mom and dad. 365 days a year of ice fishing or sitting by the bridge those summer days fishing after perch and roach. Fishing was the only thing I wanted to do.
When I got older my parents tried to give me other passions in life. I tried horseback riding, tennis classes and golfing, but I always ended up by my favorite water by the end of the day. Despite their effort, nothing seemed to catch my interest as much as the fishing rod. Finally, they settled with the fact that they had given birth to a fishing nerd.
In 2012 I graduated from the Sportfishing Academy and since then I have been traveling and fishing as much as possible. Today I love to write some sentences on how my fishing turned out, and I even have the luck to get some of my texts published in different fishing and outdoor magazines. Nowadays I am very honored to be a fly fishing ambassador for Patagonia and Loop tackle design.
"Finally, they settled with the fact that they had given birth to a fishing nerd."
In between writing fishing articles, tying flies and organizing activities, I nowadays work as a TV-host for different fishing shows and also work as a producent for fly fishing documentaries and really love every part of it! The TV-host job started with two seasons of Fiskeliv and after that I realized this is something I love to do and would like to work more with. Below you can see a trailer from my and Ted Logart latest docu. It is available to see at svtplay.se if you would like to.
But first of all, I fish - as much as I possible can.
