Fishing seasons in Helsinki Area

Archipelago in the Helsinki area can offer great fishing almost year around. All seasons are very beautiful in the archipelago nature, with their distinct atmosphere and characteristics. However, for most species the best fishing seasons are definitely spring and autumn.

The fishing season starts typically in beginning of April, when the ice melts in the Baltic Sea. It’s maybe the best time of the year to catch big, +10kg pikes. Also sea trout and whitefish fishing is good right from the start of season. In May, these seasons continue, but also a good zander fishing season starts. Pike and zander continue to feed until June.

Zander fishing is good through the whole summer, sometimes also pike fishing if the weather stays cool. In Autumn, the perch fishing season starts properly, and remains really good until the end of the season. In Autumn also seasons for sea trout and big pikes start properly again, offering great fishing until the Baltic Sea is covered in ice again. Usually this happens in January. Sometimes the sea doesn’t freeze, and then fishing continues through the winter. Winter fishing provides less pikes than warmer seasons, but with big average size.

Midnight Sun Fishing Adventures operates in the beautiful archipelago of Finland’s Southern Coast, up to 2 hours drive east or west from Helsinki. Whether you are based in Helsinki, or another area in the Southern Finland, it is possible to go fishing close to you. As an example, we have long term experience on the beautiful waters of Espoo, just 15 minutes drive from Helsinki center.

The other option is to choose the location based on our recommendation. When you book a fishing trip, we shall discuss about your preferred fishing style and species. Based on that, we will choose together the optimal location to maximise your chances for great fishing. Transportation to the starting spot is normally not included in the service, however let us know if you need tips or help with it.

Baltic Sea is the only place in the whole world where fresh water species like pike, perch and zander live in brackish water, and Finnish Coast is maybe the best area for it.
