Net fishing and ice fishing trip to Lake Nuas

An unforgettable day with local guides on a fishing trip from the shore of Vuokatinmaa. Unique fishing trip – Traditional way of winter fishing methods.

The fishermen are experienced net fishers on their own lake, so the chances of catching fish are quite good. Net fishing is a very traditional way of fishing. Additionally, we fish with a traditional fishing rod and worm, which is called “pilkkiminen” in Finnish. Kind of ice fishing too.

The fish caught with nets are of various types, but mainly burbot, pike-perch, pike, or perch.

When ice fishing with rod & worm, the most common catch is perch, but with good skill or luck, you might also catch pike-perch. Traditionally, we practice ice drilling, which also requires skill to set up the fishing lures.

For the trip, we will either travel in a sled pulled by a snowmobile or hike with snowshoes to the fishing spots from the shores of Vuokatinmaa. During the program, we will enjoy trail snacks and hot drinks by the campfire.

If we’re fortunate enough to catch some fish, there may even be the chance to prepare at your cabin or by one of the campfire spots, creating a true sense of connection with nature. This is a perfect adventure for those looking to combine the thrill of winter sports with the joy of fishing and the beauty of the winter outdoors.
