Huge excitement has spread across the Greenland to Scotland Challenge Camp - Olly and George caught not 1 but FIVE fish on the last leg! This is a big deal, to put this into context, during Olly's Atlantic Row he had a line out for all 124 days and caught 1 fish. This was a welcomed distraction from the hard 3 days that they had had before.
Now in the metropolis of Bakkafjorour (5 houses and 1 shop that opens for 2 hours every other day) they will rest and wait for the weather to turn in their favour again. This could be up to three days, but they are happy as they have lots of delicious cod and pollock to munch on. They will then pull out two more legs, hopping down to Neskaupstadur before heading to the Faroe Islands.
Spirits are high, Iceland is providing them with the most beautiful scenery and wildlife. They are soaking this up before the impending 6 days and nights at sea.
Very happy fisherman!
