What's the catch in Finland? A set of baits for the whole season. Fishing calendar in Finland

I selected the best set of baits for the entire open water season and made a video review for them. The baits are very reliable and effective. The whole set is made up of baits with a very high price-quality ratio.

But just talking about lures is not quite the right approach. Each bait has its own time and place. For this reason, I talk about my working bait box in relation to these two indicators. Where and when I use each bait. It turned out a kind of fishing calendar with an overview of baits for him.

Абсолютно точно, что представленный набор можно улучшить топовыми приманками, если позволяет бюджет. В условиях финских водоемов, я пришел к выводу, что разница эффективности к примеру топового ZipBaits Orbit или бюджетного Major Craft Zonner Minnow попросту ничтожна, а разница в цене "в разы".

The review presents Jerkbaits, minnow and shad wobblers (pike and perch), small and large silicone baits, popper, spinnerbate and even duckling.

 


Salmon fishing in Finland

Finally, we got to catching red fish in our category.

Just recently, I went salmon fishing on Lake Saimaa with my good friends from fishing in Norway. This business is frankly difficult, costly and requires a lot of patience.

Ловили мы лосося способом под названием "троллинг". Именно так, в основном, и ловят лосося на Сайме коренные финны. Мы использовали устройства, под названием "планер", которые крепится на леску спиннинга и плывут параллельным курсом с катером, позволяя приманки на спиннингах держать на определенном расстоянии от него. В результате получаем 2 крыла, плывущих параллельным курсом, поверхностных воблеров.

Why superficial ones? The long-term experience of our captain, who by the way is also called Andrey, suggests that the vast majority of bites occur from the surface and the labor costs of supporting the operation of downringers (devices for deep fishing) do not justify themselves.

As baits, small (approximately 10 cm) wobblers of paint containing glitter were used. It is on them that Saimaa trout or brown trout most often bite. You can see how this all happens visually in this video.
