Well, it is MEANT to be summer, but that is relative up here.
I am working in Gallivare, where it snowed 3 inches before I got here on Sunday. Temperatures were around 4 degrees celcius when I started fishing. Visibility was in excess on 2 meters.
I was actually being snowed on while fishing.
Water temp - dont know, BLOODY cold.
Since this is a work trip, i have basic fishing gear - that did not include neoprenes or a beanie.
I did bring waders and a rain jacket though, since I knew the water would be cold.

Will be fishing Friday after work, Saturday and Sunday - want to get some Arctic Char, a Pike and some more trout. Always a shot at a Salmon, but I only have a 3wt & a 5wt.

[Nymph+O-]

Hell...
that looks awesome!
Must be something terribly wrong with my life that I don't get to do cool stuff like fishing in a foreign country in the above mention conditions.
Green is the colour of envy.
Knock yourself out, have a fab time!
