Guiding with Lars Munk!

The fishing has been pretty bad these last days except for grayling. That gives me a lot of time to work along the river and things are starting to look good and be finished. During the week i have been transporting more firewood, put up a few more signs and also cleaning up from garbage on the west side from Onka. When i am working along the river i can see salmon jumping every day in the streams except when i am fishing. That is a little bit strange but it is like that all the time. I have been out fishing for grayling and caught some fish up to 40 cm. I manage to catch a trout aswell on around 1 kg.



Yesterday i was out with Lars Munk on a guided fishingtrip with four finnish guests. I learn´t really much and had a wunderful time, just as our guests. We didn´t catch any salmon this day but we saw them in the river and the guests now have a lot of good places to fish and spend there ten days here in Kangos.

Grayling and hatching mayflies!

The last days has been pretty warm and now the fish is starting to get really active with eating on the surface. I have been fishing i Onka , not for salmon but for grayling. The fishing has been good and some nice fish has been caught. The biggest one was on 45 cm. The fish was feeding on mayflies such as "Rocken" but also was they feeding on some small black mayflies. I also spotted salmon working there way up against the stream and one of them striked at my mayflies but i missed to hook it. It was probably the best because with my # 5 rod and 50 m of backing i would not have a chance against a big salmon in the hard stream.





Along the river there is signs now on both sides, on zon 2 and zon 3. We are working on fixing the rest of the signs but we are missing material for the at the moment. Remember to book your fishing license on the website ( www.riversoflapland.com ) to be sure to get your license. You can also buy your fishing license on Ica Kangos but the fishing might be booked for that day.
