Captain Kari Koivisto and Fishing Xperience welcome everyone interested in sport fishing in Helsinki. Whether you are an experienced fisherman or a first-timer with the rod, Kari will tailor the right fishing trip for you. He has lived and fished in the area for decades and is, therefore, an experienced guide to show you fishing in the Helsinki area. Fishing in an urban downtown landscape is an experience in itself!
You’ll be fishing from a 19’ boat made by Lund Impact. She’s powered by a Mercury 115 HP engine, which provides a comfortable and stable ride. The boat also includes quality electronics such as sonars, navigators, and a bow trolling motor. Two large livewells keep your catch fresh if you take it for food. The fishing tackle on the boat is Daiwa high quality fishing rods and reels. Boat is also packed with lures for every situation.
In Helsinki, you can mainly fish for Perch, Zander, Pike and Sea Trout. You’ll usually fish for seasonal species, but it’s also possible to focus on a particular species regardless of the season. You get to take the fish for food and the captain will clean and get the fish ready for cooking. All species you can catch are tasty for eating!
You’ll need to purchase your fishing license and bring some snacks. Make sure to dress warm enough, especially during the winter season.
Book your trip with Fishing Xperience and spend a memorable day fishing on Helsinki waters!

Fishing day in Helsinki
What an amazing day we had!!! Beautiful weather, lovely scenery, and big fish too! Captain Kari is knowledgeable and engaging. We learned a lot about the area, and he put us on fish right away. Everyone in our party caught fish and a couple were big ones! We brought lunch that we were able to enjoy on a beautiful little island. Kari even brought us some Finnish sweet rolls that were delicious. After we wrapped up fishing, the captain took us to Helsinki City Center to take in the view of downtown from the sea. Should your travels bring you to Helsinki, I highly recommend you book a trip with Captain Kari…you won't be disappointed.
