Casting wobblers near the
spawning places of pikes. Normally these places are good at this time
of the year, just when the ices are gone. Every year they catch
big ones, up to 8 kilos, too. 3-4 kilos pikes are quite common. This
time there were no giants to disturb my fishing, Anyway I caught two a
bit over one kilo fishes. Water level has been really low all the
springtime. The traditional spawning places are now dry.

Today 10 pikes 2,0-5,1 kg with wobblers, seatrouts are still missing.
Of four fishing boats ours was the only one to catch fishes. All
models of wobblers were good, only you had to reel them really slow.
The wind was eastern and southern. The whitefishes are here!

Four men and four days of fishing seatrouts sailing between ices. We
served all possible lures like flies, spoons and wobblers. Not a bite.
Perhaps the fishes are in a inner archiepelago.

In the morning flyfishing Haihu-rapids. The water level was
good, I could even fish the small tributaries. In the wintertime they
had remodelled the river and now it looks good. There are now a lot of
places for fishes to hide in. I caught one rainbow in this new area
and two more from the lower parts of the rapids. All fishes were put
into the river this year, size about 700-800g. The best fly was #2
pink-white zonker.

The springtime is coming and you
can find it, when looking fishermen in every open water place trying
to catch whitefishes. Some of them even get fishes like Janne
Suikkanen, who today caught five
good size whitefishes. I tried to flyfish them, but the results were
poor, TOTAL NF. I met today two groups of troutfishermen, who were
pulling their boats on the ice to the shore from the open water. They
had fished Putsaari and Isonkari waters. No fishes, but excellent
outdoor living. The weather was perfect.

One day waiting for
the temperature to go down in the minus degrees. That did not happen,
so I had to take my skis. Mostly moving was walking with poles. The
trip was sweaty, but worth making. I caught my first burbot in this
winter (about 50 g). Fishing 14 hours I finally got the pearl, a
beautiful 400 g arctic char.

Spending afternoon in fishing whitefishes. We had heard, that in two
days fishermen had not seen a head of a whitefish in this area. We
fished from half past five till darknes. Only quater to nine it
happened, when a small school of fishes came to the area. We had five
contacts, of which two, half a kilos fishes were caught. Nine o'clock
it was over, and we had only a beautiful sunset to watch.

Tenon
Erakievari is a fishing camp with excellent guiding to finnish and
norwegian highlands to fish arctic chars. I visited some hours now
in weekend
Luomusjarvi ( a lake) to test, how the fishes are hitting. I caught
six chars and eight burbots, while having a nice sunbath, too. On
the highlands there is very little snow, and you can drill the holes
in the ice without extra shank in your drill.
Transports you can order from Tenon Eräkievari, call +358-16
676088. They arrange fishing trips to the famous Jiesjarvi in Norway,
too.

The result of this day was 18 graylings, of which the biggest was 540
g. Not a sign of arctic chars. The lure of the day was Kuusamo
vertical jig with white Power Bait Honey Worm. It was even better as
living worms!

The opening of flyfishing season in Vesa-, Riihi- ja Lehtiniemirapids
of Aurejoki. Waterlevel was quite low and the color clear. Some adult
stoneflies were flying. With a
large #2 streamer I caught two minor trouts. Juha's 46 cm rainbow took
#2 streamer, too. It was in good form, apparently stocked last year.
