Ice Fishing in Lapland
When Lapland winter gives space to the spring and sun is shining, the best period for ice fishing starts. In both Yllas villages there is a lake in the middle of the village that is good for ice-fishing. Moving out of the villages there are plenty of lakes full of fish . The most typical catches are perch, white fish, grayling, brown trout, arctic char and rainbow trout. Ice fishing is good fun in Lapland and is a well followed past time. Try ice fishing on your next Lapland Holiday
