About Iijoki

Iijoki, in Pohjois-Pohjanmaa, Finland, is a river where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Iijoki is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

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.
