Guided zander fishing techniques
1. JIG FISHING
The most common technique for zander fishing in Finland. Fun and great option for bigger groups. Usage of sonar technology is in a key role.
2. VERTICAL JIGGING
Also very popular option and sometimes the most effective way to catch zander. Usage of Live sonar technology increases the effectiveness vastly.
3. SHARPCASTING
Very intensive zander fishing technique, relying purely on Live sonar technology. We can find a zander on the sonar screen and cast directly to that fish, following its reactions. Sometimes gives big pikes as a bonus.
4. TROLLING
The traditional fishing method for zander in Finland, trolling is the most relaxed technique. It is effective especially when zanders rise to feed in the top water columns on summer evenings.
