Lake Koutus
We arrange guided fishing trips to Lake Koutus , which is a small lake in Pello. It's a private lake and you are only allowed to fish with certain guides approved by Metsähallitus, a state-owned enterprise in Finland. And there can't be more than one fishing group at the same time. Lake Koutus is called Koutusjärvi in finnish.
In Koutusjärvi you can truly feel the serenity of finnish Lapland. Only thing that might disturb the peace is huge brown trout splashing on the surface. Koutusjärvi is famous for its trout but there's a lot of big whitefishes too. Typical size of trout is from 60 to 70 cm.
In Koutusjärvi you can use a small boat or for example a float tube. There are some possibilities to fish from the shore also. It´s also possible to try trolling on a small boat. You don't need to bring anything. All the fishing gear and boat is included in the trip.
We recommend you to book a fishing trip in September when trout are near the surface looking for food. But it's also possible to have great fishing in August or October., if the lake is not frozen. Koutusjärvi trip prices start from 900 euros / 10 hours for 1-2 persons.
When you book a trip to Koutusjärvi you know that there won't be any other groups fishing there.
