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.

Amazing Day!
Fishing day in Helsinki on May 22, 2025
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.

Your captain
Helsinki, Finland
I started fishing when I was 6 years old. My father is a huge fan of fishing and he started to take me out with him. First I started angling from the bank and ice fishing during the wintertime. Later on, I started to compete on both angling and ice fishing. Nowadays it's mainly predator fishing from the boat and bringing customers out for fishing. I still like ice fishing a lot and that's is still the way of fishing during the wintertime. Fishing is a lifestyle for me and I like to do it in several different ways.
