When Daniel Johannesson from Harnosand woke up in the Lofoten Islands on Saturday morning, he could never have imagined that he was a few hours later hooked the largest halibut catch and release, which means that you release the fish back again after you’ve captured it.
– I thought I had the lows, but then when I started pulling a little more, I felt that it was so then I realized that it was something big, says Daniel from a windy telephone line from Å in Lofoten.

No one could then imagine what Daniel was on the hook. After a struggle of 30-40 minutes between flounder and everyone aboard guidbåten, you had to ultimately up halibut.
A somewhat humble fisherman record tells of the struggle.
– It’s a great team effort by everyone involved. It was I who hooked it, and stood and struggled with it, but three times pulled it down on the ground, and finally I said to the others in the boat, with ill lactic acid in his arms, to cut the rope, but instead helped we all ate and Finally, we were two men on the spot when we got up, says Daniel.
when the fish was well up there, no one could believe their eyes. The fish was huge and for control measurements measured the fish to the incredible 246 centimeters. The weight is calculated based on the length and estimated at 209.7 kg. A new world record for flounders caught and then released.
With the boat was the wizard Johan Mikkelsen from Nordic Sea Angling.
– I have probably not really understood this yet, I’m an amateur who has fished some, but this beats everything of course I caught earlier. It is incomprehensible and it feels almost like I was winning the lottery, says Daniel Johannesson
The team of guide the boat was in addition Daníel also guide Martin Johansson and Daniel’s fishing buddies Robert Martinsson Michael Sele Farm and Gunnar Lilja. Later also signed wizard Johan Mikkelsen, who immortalized the event in pictures.
