About fishing in Åland

When and where to fish?

 

The fishing season in the Åland Islands is only interrupted by insignificant off-season periods. This is usually December and the last half of March. The rest of the time, you can fish with some productivity.

But not all the waters of the Aland archipelago are equally good for all seasons. In some places the fish is caught only in a fairly limited period of time, where it is longer.

We catch big perches on a wobbler

What kind of fish do we catch?

The main object of hunting in Aland is pike, as well as perch. Sudak is also common in local waters, but its size leaves much to be desired, although the capture of real monsters happens every year.

We are pleased, in detail, will help you choose the right bait for fishing in our waters. In general, they repeat, almost everything that our Russian fishermen, like jerks, rubber, wobblers and oscillating lures, are accustomed to use, work equally well on the Alands. But, of course, there are some nuances.

We have made sets of the best baits and will gladly offer them to your attention. Contact us and we will be happy to share with you our knowledge about fishing in such a special place as the Aland Islands!

Finno lucky

It is located at the crossroads, so to speak, fishing paths. The coastline of our camp is located in Kalvfjard, and these waters can be called an inland pond and this is very important, it is here that the main spawning grounds of the northwest of the Alands are located, and in combination with various depths, ranging from 0 to 20 m, makes this fjord unique.

The season opens in Finno immediately after the ice has melted, as a rule it occurs in early April and lasts until freezing. The relative closeness of the fjord provides transparency of water in the summer months and at the same time provides reliable ice formation in winter.

Big Zander in the Åland Islands

THE SPECIAL ONE

The Åland Islands are home to plenty of big zander, and catching fish over 6 kg is nothing out of the ordinary. The biggest zander caught from my boat in 2024 tipped the scales at 7.4 kg.

But landing such monsters is easier said than done. The key to a successful fishing trip lies in your guide. It’s not just about having a high-tech fishing boat equipped with cutting-edge sonar and fish-finding gear (though that’s a game-changer). The real challenge is that zander don’t inhabit all waters of the archipelago—only specific areas hold them.

To make things even trickier, spawning and feeding migrations come into play. One day, the zander are here; the next, they’re miles away…

But one thing’s for sure—a trophy zander is a catch to remember.

The Åland Islands are just the place where every passionate angler has a real shot at landing one!
