Local legend in the famous seatrout and salmon river Mörrum Lars Terkildsen had just landed a nice 12 kilo silvery salmon one lovely day in May on the former Walhalla beat (now known as Dahlbom’s). After landing the fish, Lars cut off his fly and tied it on a fellow fisherman’s leader instead. Hans Jürgen Lönne was his name. – Now you go and catch a salmon on this Lönne Sock! Lars cheered. And so, Hans Jürgen did just that. Of course, the name stuck to the fly ever since. In this video we have put local fly fisher and owner of Fiskeshopen behind the vise to demonstrate the tying of Lönne Sock, a lighter dressed version of the iconic Ullsocken – but designed for clear summer fishing in low water conditions.
