Parainen, Granvik 25.1
TomiL

Icefishing perches in Granvik area. The underwater hill by the boat route gave small perches (medium under 150 g) 5,5 kilos with balance jig. edustalla. Three minor zanders, too. At 13.00 the hit was totally over, other places did not give fishes either.


Aavikki 26.1

Fishing burbots. Pia´s style was unbeatable! She got malefishes 2,5 and 2,8 kg, the baits were smelts.

KariA, Kake,  Pepe and Teemu

Three oldtimers and one beginner icefishing familiar places. Medium of the fishes was small, about200 g. Pepe found in the morning a good hole, a plastic bag full of nice size, 200 - 400g, perches from one hole. The pearls of the day were again in Kake's bag, Half a kilos fishes. Anyway a nice fishing day. We three oldtimers caught about ten kilos perches each. The best thing was, that we got a new young member in our team. The youngster caught 5 kg fishes and is now eager to ice-fish.

Nauvo, Kirjainen and Gullkrona 23.1.
Ktl and Kari

In the morning fishing the Kirjais-bay area with mormyskas. No whitefishes. Only about twenty small perches (max 150g).
Rest of the day fishing the open water-area Gullkrona. No fishes on the underwater hills. Kari caught 5 small perches in 12m water.


Parainen, Granvik 19.1.
MarkkuR + co

Two kilos filee size perches. Pasi N. caught about 15 kg. Six others caught about nothing. Even perches need skills to be caught!  With Olli T. in some minutes in the evening 5 small zanders.


Taivassalo 19.1
Nikolai and co

Perches in size 250g about 8 kilos with a balance-jig. Fish were on the underwater slopes, not on the hills. I lost an about 5-6 kg pike after ten minutes fight. Treble Gamakatsu hook was broken so that two hooks were away! But I was calm...


Tammela, Pyhajarvi 19.1
Kari A


Icefishing four hours zanders. Thec catch was only one under legal size fish. They do not hit every day, anyway it was a nice outdoor day!


Forby 18.1
Kari A

The first hole gave about 50 perches from 100 to 500 g. Ten of these over 200 g I took, the rest back to grow up. Some empty holes round the underwater hill, and then I found the fishes again. In one hour of fishing I caught 30 fishes in nice size class, then came a ice-breaker boat and open the route about 50 m from the fishing place. No more hitting fishes. In the next hour only the small ones were interested in my lures. When a big ship came I changed the place. On every underwater hill there were small perches. When I came back I tested the first place again. Some good one were now in the hitting mood. The saldo of the day: fishes in the size to fry up 48 pcs, total weight 15,5 kg and the biggest one 680g.

Ylane, Pyhajarvi 14.1.
ktl
, Jukka and Kari

Trying to icefish whitefishes (Lavaretus lavaretus). Everyone caught tens of ruffes. Perches we caught over ten pcs. Whitefishes were not in the traffic, only some we saw ahd had three hits. Ice about 60 cm, waterlevel low (-30 cm) and snow on the ice 20 cm. The artificial maggots of Berkley caught fishes in even tact with real ones. A whitefish accepted them , but got loose under the hole.


Naantali, Kotkanaukko 12.1.
MarkkuR
+ co

In Kotkanaukko area icefishing zanders with old zander-masters. Nils Master's green back and silver sides balance jig was as good as traditional vertical jigs. 5 legal size zanders.


Sauvo, Syvalahti 12.1
KariA, Kake and Jukka

Perches were not in the mood, only about twenty fishes per man, and medium about 100 g. This tells about poor hit, the best hole in the ice gave only ten fishes, and everyone of them with different colored balance jig. when you changed the color you always caught immeditely one fish, and then only careful bites. What saved our day were zanders, even if they were small ,too. Kake 11pcs ( 2 legal ), Kari 11 pcs ( 2 legal ) and Jukka 2 pcs. The biggest perch of the day had , again, Kake360 g.

Tammela, Pyhajarvi 11.1.
Kari A


Three hours of balance jigging, then the weather turned so nasty, I had to go home. The catch: 3 perches and 3 zanders, of which two were legal size. A good utility relation 2:3.
A tip: There is ice about 70-80 cm, so you can drive by car on the ice!

             
             These two were legal size (= over 37 cm) Photo by Kari

Pena
