Elmer members about Björn: |
Bjorn is a trout fisherman to his fingertips. When the others in Elmer were fishing in the stream of Kuokak in Kaitum catching Grayling all the time, Björn caught about 20 trout’s on a Red Tag fly on exactly the same spot! He always catches most and biggest Trout’s everywhere. Björn is also Elmer’s own outdoor specialist who knows everything there is to know about packing, camping, hiking and equipment for the outdoors. He is also Elmer’s official chef and an incredibly talented one too! No matter what Björn is undertaking, he does it with such a detail and with great planning so nothing is left for chance. |
