HistoRY
The story how Eemelivaappu was born:
I saw in a dream how I was tying Eemelivaappu wobbler to the end of the line, and how the rod was bending to its maxium. When I awoke from the dream, I thought to myself how realistic dream that was.
Â
After my morning routines I stepped out of our cabin and noticed how the air smelled of salmon. Before I went to the river to fish, I took the rod, which I saw in my dream bending and tied the wobbler on the end of the line. A little fishing gear tweaking here and there, and I was off. It was a warm day, the sun was shining and the sky was blue and clear.
Â
Suddenly, a small dark cloud appeared in the sky. When the cloud covered the sun the lines were just right,. That was when the rod bent. This was a moment to remember forever!
After a hard-fought battle, the 12kg salmon was caught. The next morning, another, over a meter in length took the bait.
Â
At this point, the idea of developing Eemelivaappu became clearer. Of course, salmon fishing is not always this easy, and it is not really supposed to be.   Â
Â
The name of the Eemelivaappu originated from a real life situation, when a relative of mine, was testing my wobblers. When he caught the salmon with my wobbler, he wondered what name to give to this wobbler in-hand? (In the salmon statistics, there is a place for naming the wobbler which the salmon was caught with). He wrote a name Eemeli on the list.
