Embark on a wonderful adventure in the Arctic as you learn a new skill, and enjoy the gorgeous landscapes of Finnish Lapland on this ice fishing excursion on Pyhä-Luosto! Located just next to Pyhä-Luosto National Park, Pyhäjärvi Lake is the 38th largest lake in Finland, full of mostly pure and clear water. This stunning lake is known locally for being an excellent place to go fishing all-year-round, but especially during winter, when the top of the lake freezes over and you can walk on it to reach the best spots. Top species to fish in the lake during winter include perch, pike, and whitefish.
On the day of your ice fishing excursion on Pyhäjärvi Lake, you'll have the option to be picked up around Pyhä-Luosto or to arrive directly at the Lucky Ranch to meet your instructor. There, they'll give you a quick safety briefing and explain exactly where you'll be going fishing. Next, you'll head out onto the lake and find the best spot to cast your line!
Your instructor will distribute the ice fishing equipment, including an ice auger (drill), fishing rod, line, lure, and whatever else they deem necessary for you to have a successful experience. Then, it's time to wait! You'll get to enjoy the stunning landscapes of the Arctic as you periodically check your line, accompanied by hot drinks and snacks to keep your strength up. And if you are lucky enough to catch a fish, your instructor can cook it over an open fire!
Keep in mind that this wonderful ice fishing excursion on Pyhäjärvi Lake from Pyhä-Luosto will take place out in the Arctic landscapes of Finnish Lapland.
