It is another hard day at the office! Welcome to the special mini series of AHDATO “Åland Expedition”. Esko, Jarkko and Ryde from Vision went for the ultimate fly fishing challenge in Åland: Three days of fly fishing and each day different species: Seatrout, pike and perch. Check out all the episodes to see how these guys managed these hard days. Did they catch all the target species in the end?
In the second day of the expedition Ryde and Jarkko are chasing some Åland made archipelago pike. Åland is famous for its pikey waters and November can be great time for finding that grand mama or daddy. Stakes are high as on the first day guys managed to wrap up the seatrout mission with three landed silver. Can the guys keep the fire burning for the last perch day?
The guys give also great tips on what leader setup to use, which rod to choose and what lines for which situation to take. If you are curious on our new Pikemaniac fly line, check this out: https://visionflyfishing.com/product/pikemaniac-2/.
ENJOY and KALAONNEA.
