It's all about spin fishing from shore, and we follow Thomas Hansen and other experienced coastal fishers in a number of fishing trips. We participate in all seasons and at different fishing grounds. See the incredible underwater footage of sea trout in the fishing grounds - while fishing. Look under the water uptake of sea trout following the lure. See the catch of a big trout.
