Archipelagos<br />
Kalix and Haparanda archipelagos together have around 440 kilometres <strong>of</strong> coast, plus 1400 islands, so you<br />
will find very good opportunities for high-quality fishing either with family or friends. Many people choose to<br />
take a boat and fish from the water, which gives an even greater feeling <strong>of</strong> freedom. You can find your own<br />
island to fish from, and if the fish aren’t biting you can always just relax and take in the beautiful archipelago<br />
scenery. You can also try out trolling, which is <strong>of</strong>ten very effective in this kind <strong>of</strong> water.<br />
If you don’t have access to a boat, <strong>of</strong> course you can also fish from the coast; fishing for pike in the early<br />
summer can be very effective, and every year several pike more than 100 cm in length are caught. Another<br />
exciting fishing method is dry fly fishing for grayling in the archipelago. In the autumn there are good chances<br />
<strong>of</strong> catching both whitefish and sea trout.<br />

Lakes<br />
In the heart <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lapland</strong>, everyone can find their own favourite lake or pond, because there are 1600 to choose<br />
from! Some are home to enormous pike that are so big they can be mistaken for logs, so that dream pike is<br />
definitely out there somewhere. Fishing for perch is one <strong>of</strong> the high points <strong>of</strong> the summer; the fish are <strong>of</strong>ten<br />
at their best when there’s a real high pressure over the area, with lots <strong>of</strong> sun and warmth. This is a fish that<br />
appeals to everyone in the family, and you can fish from either jetties or boats.<br />
For the real angling enthusiast, there are lakes that can deliver Swedish records for roach; there are several<br />
confirmed large catches that have never been registered in the big fish register. You will also find Sweden’s<br />
northernmost zander here. Zander can be a cautious fish that sometimes take so cautiously that you hardly<br />
feel anything on the line. But if you go out on warm summer nights you may have an exciting fishing experience.<br />
If you would rather go for grayling or trout with a dry fly, there are plenty <strong>of</strong> very fine lakes, and <strong>of</strong>ten these<br />
are the kind <strong>of</strong> food-rich waters that give both grayling and trout everything they need to grow really big. Is<br />
there anything more exciting than to see your dry fly disappear into the mouth <strong>of</strong> a big trout?
