Winter fishing – local meditation
Ice fishing ” local meditation” is indeed a Finnish hobby that almost all local people do. Now is your chance to try your luck on ice-fishing. Our guide introduces the gear to you and teaches you the tricks of ice fishing. After drilling a hole into the lake and setting up your fishing jigs “pilkki”, you may catch perch, whitefish or pike. Many Finns enjoy fishing for the peaceful moments it offers in nature. For some it is a way to spend time with friends and family, and some enjoy it most when done alone. Catching fish is the goal, but not the only reason to go out on the lake.
