Fishing In Norwegian Waters: “… is quicker than going to the supermarket!”

Do most sailors fish? It would make sense! There have been quite a few of the guests fishing off the luxury yacht Santosa and here’s a quick review of their success from skipper Steve and some photos of the ones that didn’t get away.
