These five trips fish in open water: the title names a boat, a rod, summer or autumn, or a species caught without ice. They are the small end of the cluster — five trips against 24 that name ice fishing — and fewer than five of them state a price or a duration, so this page gives no typical figures. Three of the five say food or a hot drink is included.

Features are marked from the text of the listings and the operators’ own pages. A missing mark means the listing does not mention it, not that it is left out. Duration groups use the midpoint of the stated range (a 3–4 hour tour counts as 3.5 hours): up to 3 hours, over 3 and up to 5, over 5 and up to 7, over 7 hours, and tours of several days. Season comes from the operator’s own availability calendar in Visit Finland DataHub, or from a season stated on the operator’s own page. The snow season means the months when snow covers the ground on at least half the days at the weather station used on this site. A tour without a season simply does not state one. Filters are offered only for features that the listings state for at least 70 % of the tours and at least 50 % of the tours from each source, so a feature can be marked on a tour without being offered as a filter. One more tour in our data is not listed here because it has no working booking link yet.

Questions
How much do open water fishing trips cost?
None of the 4 tours that are not private state a per-person price.
How long do open water fishing trips take?
2 of 5 tours state a duration in hours: from 4 h to 8 h. 3 do not state a usable duration.
Can children join?
None of the 5 tours here state a minimum age on the platform listing or on the operator's own page. That does not mean children can join: it means the age limit is not stated, so ask the operator before booking.
Who are open water fishing trips for?
Open water fishing suits a summer or autumn trip, or a winter visit when you would rather sit in a boat than on the ice. It is also the type where the catch is the point rather than the setting: the titles name pike, trout and grayling, while the ice fishing titles name the lake.

Sources and method
Tour data
How operators were found: no single list is complete, so we combined 619 candidate companies from several sources (Visit Finland DataHub 137, GetYourGuide 88, the Finnish Trade Register (PRH open data, tourism-related lines of business) 424, Viator 6, visitrovaniemi.fi listings 38, the visitrovaniemi.fi company directory 89, web searches in seven languages 141; a company can be in several). Each candidate with a website was checked on its own website. Tour details are taken first from the operator’s own website (or Visit Finland DataHub (opens in a new tab)); booking platforms fill in what the operator’s page does not state.
The tables and tour lists include the fishing trips in our data that have a working booking link: 52 tours (52 with details from the operator’s own website; listed on: DataHub 17, operator site 41 — the same tour is often listed in several places, so these add up to more than 52), collected 2026-09-22. Fishing: fishing named in the tour title, or (if the title names no activity) in the collected listing text. Pages that are not a single bookable fishing trip — an overview page, a company front page, a permit or rental — were left out after reading the page. 1 tour was left out because it has no working booking link yet. A tour whose operating base is more than 50 km from the centre is listed only when the tour page says it departs from, or picks up in, the destination; the distance is then shown on the tour. Distances are measured from coordinates in Visit Finland DataHub, or from the postal code of the company’s registered address (PRH open data (opens in a new tab); postal code areas from Statistics Finland (opens in a new tab)). Prices change daily; check them on the booking page.
Links to operators’ own pages were last checked on : 1404 addresses across every activity on this site, of which 21 did not answer with a working page and are not linked. GetYourGuide and Viator links are not fetched.
This page shows the 5 of them in the group “Open water” (the title names open water fishing: a boat, a rod, fly fishing, summer or autumn, or a species fished in open water). Each tour belongs to exactly one group.
