About Simojoki

Flowing through Lappi, Finland, Simojoki is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Simojoki hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Simojoki can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  • For European grayling

    Grayling often hold in deeper runs and pools, so focus your efforts there using a drifting technique to present your bait naturally.

  • For Ide

    Use a slow, steady retrieve with spinners and crankbaits, especially when the water is cold, to give the Ide a chance to strike.
