When the ruggedly beautiful Bothnian Bay freezes over, it's time to pack our best lures, and stock up on warm clothes, because perch and other fish are waiting to be caught.
On our ice fishing trip, we use a variety of techniques to catch fish and get to know the winter scenery of our sea. If you're lucky and skilled enough, you may hook a nice perch or roach, sometimes even whitefish. The guide will give you tips on the best fish recipes and you can even take some of the potential catch with you. You can hide from the cold sea breeze in a warm tent if necessary. Thanks to the tent, even the youngest members of the family can be taken along on the trip. We can also build a fire in the mobile fire pit to keep you warm, and we can cook if you wish.
We search for fishing spots by snowmobile and sleigh. Reindeer skins on the benches will keep you warm during the transitions. If you are observant, you may see a white-tailed eagle gliding gallantly overhead.
On the trip, you will experience first-hand the winter of northern sea region: the weather often changes dramatically even during the day. There may be a lot of snow on the ice, or none at all, and temperatures vary. Always dress warmly enough. Depending on the time of year, you may be able to catch a glimpse of the sun peeking over the horizon and a spectacular sunset, or in spring you may be fishing in the warming sunshine.
