Santajoki / Песчаная

Santajoki / Песчаная is a river flowing through Ленинградская область, Finland. River fishing rewards anglers who learn to read current — fish hold in the seams between fast and slow water, behind rocks and submerged logs, and at the heads and tails of pools. At Santajoki / Песчаная, working a lure or fly down-and-across the current usually outperforms casting straight upstream. Higher water concentrates fish; clear, low water makes them spookier.
