Finland

Where to catch…

There is no doubt, that Finland became the most popular country for fishing and family vacations for the last years. Its location makes Finland one of the most available place even for summer holidays and week-end rest. Splendid service, great variety of accommodation and fishing possibilities, friendly ecological situation and hospitality of Finnish people encourage us to get rid of noisy megapolis at least for couple days.

Thinking of fishing in Finland, we avoid traditional division into sea- and lake-fishing or separation by different kinds of fish, but we structure it according to the depth of touristic interest to fishing. That’s why we offer you separate cottages, cottage villages and professional fishing companies. All propositions are tested by us in line with location, service and fishing efficiency. We worked-out our special tours both for spinners and flyfishing fans.

   
We hope, everyone will find a fishing-tour, he is most interested in among our offers and will catch the trophy he desires. You can explore the biggest lakes Pajane and Nasijarvi, small and quiet lakes of the central part of Finland, Laplandian rapids or Turku and Porvoo skerries in winter as well as in summer. Pike, perch, sander, sea-trout and Baltic salmon can be your trophy almost everywhere.
Year after year we create new fishing-tours over the Finland to introduce them to you!

Lohimaa holiday and fishing centre 

Lohimaa fishing centre is located in Tervo place in 73 km from Kuopio and considered to be one of the most convenient and popular touristic centres for family vacation. The unique Jaoskoski rapid more than 1,2 km long with sea-trout, grayling and lake herring populations gives a special attraction to Lohimaa.
Lake fishing higher and lower than rapids is also really interesting. There are ponds stocked with trout for first-time fishermen as well. Your fish can be cooked right here if you like. 
There are restaurant for 80 persons, bar for 30 persons, billiards, gym, sport/fishing store, sport ground for kids, smoke sauna at the Lohamaa’s territory. Hotel with 2 buildings and high-class cottages 4-5* are offered for accommodation.

Jauskoski rapid is one best places for sea-trout fishing. There is a limited number of fishermen per day allowed to catch in the rapid, so the main rule here is “catch and release”. In other lakes every kind of fish typical for Finland is possible to catch: pike, perch, sander, lake-herring, roach, bream, burbot and lake salmon.
Flyfishing only is allowed while fishing in rapids, in the rest places you can use spinning.

Expert’s recommendations

There is a plenty of rivers and lakes in Finland. Such place as Lohimaa, for example, makes both fishing in the rapids and lake-fishing possible. Thus we’ll tell about tackles for all cases.
We advise rod #5-6 and floating line for rapids fishing. Flies strongly depend on the season.
For lake fishing we recommend classical tackles used for pike and perch fishing: spinning rod 7’-8’ 5-25 g or 7-28 g and 2500 on Shimano classification reel.
Also jig-heads 10-20 g and rippers of different colors.
