We will be dealing direct with John who owns the camp & boats(the guy who lends his car to us). With the exchange rate being better & no middle man (wildwater) the price per boat & cabin is £2000. £1000 each for 2 anglers, £666 for 3, £500 for 4. Flights from uk about £300 return, C.I. £450. Bodo rost ferry £35 return. Taxi's etc £30 pp. Rod tubes 15 pp. Boat fuel £250 per boat. Hotel oslo £85.
Working on 3 to a boat the travel costs = £1215 pp from uk. £1365 from CI.
Spending money depends on your beer intake. If you like a good few scoops take £500, that should cover a couple of nights on the lash,your food & a few extra bits of tackle.
If you don't drink tooooooo much £300 would do, especially if you like eating fish.
If your Welsh 5 grand might cover it!
Tackle, you need far less than you think. I will do a post later on this.

Si,
If you suffer from sea sickness take a look at these Scopoderm TTS patches. I have used them and found them great. Although one user of the attached reviews didn't like them, if they had menniers they probably should not have taken them in the first place. I can only say they have worked for me when I used to go wrecking off Whitby.

Friday 15th of July for me. If I'm ruled out, if anybody wants to borrow any gear for the trip please just ask!
I spent most of my time with a 6ft spinning rod and an Abu baitcaster multiplier and had great fun jigging a Toby spoon, that's how I got into this damn plugging addiction in the first place!
