Powan is an common fish in lakes in Central Finland. Fishing with dry flies is most effective when lake is calm in a summer evening and powan are rising to the surface.

It is possible to fish powan from shores or from a boat. Powan are shy and therefore you should carefully approach them. Powan rise to the surface when lake is calm during summer evenings. You should cast your fly to the front of the supposed route of a powan. The jaws of a powan are extremely smooth and therefore you should play a powan carefully.

Powan swim in swarms along shores.

The best time to catch powan is at sunset and sometimes also in the mornings. The weather must be calm and there must be insects on the surface of water. Powan does not come near the surface when it's cold and windy.

Small dry flies are excellent for powan in lake fishing.

Welcome to fish on the clean waters of Finland!
