Finland has 187,888 small and big lakes. The large-sized, popular lakes in Finland are totals for about 56,000. The largest ones are those three lakes, Paijanne, Inari and Saimaa, each measuring more than 1,000 square kilometers. Finland has more lakes than any other location, so it can be considered as the fishing paradise. It offers a vast range of fish species and any fisherman can enjoy different opportunities for fish catching. Organizers offer many fishing activities in the Finnish Lake District, Baltic Sea coastline and more than 640 rivers. All those popular lakes in Finland are rich in many species and anyone can enjoy wonderful and quite sceneries, while practicing their favorite sports.

Unlike any other location within the entire world, Finland offers a huge, quite space for fishing and you can catch all those species of predators as pike, zander and perch. As you already know, perch and pike are common species for many locations, but one more than a meter-long pike can be difficult to find in any other place; in Finland is something common. As well, the zander can be found especially in the lakes of the south and central part of the country. More, there you can also find pikeperch and brown trout. These fish species weight from one kilogram up to twenty kilograms.

In the northern area, you can enjoy great spots in fishing salmon and grayling among the popular lakes in Finland. These species can also grow very big and they can be pursuit on the rivers Teno and Torniojoki. In addition, you can opt for fishing related activities as fly-fishing or spinning. The opened season is the same one every year, starting with April and closing with November, sometimes even December, depending on the weather. In winter, you can still visit this wonderful country and enjoy ice fishing.

Whenever you choose the popular lakes in Finland to go for fishing, you have to know that it is very easy to do that on wildness lake or on an outskirt, in the city. There are always good connections; and the fishing licenses are easy to get. If you wish to enjoy a full fishing holiday, you can choose one of those accommodations located nearby the popular lakes in Finland. Many fishermen choose the recreational fishing and there are also many events for which you can opt. The best part of Finland is the south part of the country, while the north presents wild rivers; all those wonderful spots await you, and they are ready to provide you with the most exciting fishing experience you ever had.

Another thing you should be aware of is that you need a fishing license, as, without it, you are not allowed to fish at all in any of the popular lakes in Finland. First, you have to pay a management fee that rises up about $10 for seven days. After you pay that fee, you have to pay another $10 for the seven days license. Of course, you can do all these prior coming to Finland, through bank transfer, so, once arrived your only concern is to fish.

When deciding to go to popular lakes in Finland, you should always check the service packages and book in advance. It is not a bad idea to contract a tourism agency and arrange a tourist guide, as you might need him. As an example, Fishing Lords Ltd. offers you the possibility to choose from their services the location you wish to visit, which fishing trips you prefer, accommodation, meals and anything else you might need. Their main operational area is about 100 km west and east of Helsinki, but they still can provide you with best services if you wish to go to other locations. They offer complete tourist packages, with fishing and top tourist attractions.

What else you should know? If you turn the Finland's map on its side, you can observe that the Southern part is the head, the West Coast is the belly, the Lake District is the back and the Lapland is the tail of a giant fish. As this thing suggests, it is very easy to fish in any location within the country, as the basic fish species are almost the same in any part; the differences are between seasons, surroundings, conditions and regions, and all of them are just perfect for fishing.
