About Hankavesi
Set in Pohjois-Savo, Finland, Hankavesi is a lake that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Hankavesi usually focus their effort on transitions: the edges of weed beds, points that stick out into deeper water, and the shaded sides of any inflow. Early morning and the last hour of light tend to be the most productive windows on a body of water this size.

Fishing Techniques
- For Zander
Use a slow retrieve with occasional pauses to allow the lure to sink and trigger strikes from zander lying on the bottom.
- For Brown trout
When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.
- For European perch
Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
