City Lights Burbot Ice Fishing (private)

The City Lights Burbot Ice Fishing Experience is a unique and enchanting adventure in the heart of Oulu. Available only for a short period during the winter, it offers an exclusive opportunity to fish for a night-active, snake-like fish under the mesmerizing glow of the city lights. Embark on a journey of mystical winter fishing in the evening or nighttime. The burbot, known for its snake-like appearance and delicious flavour, emerges to spawn in the cold, dark waters of the River Oulu delta. This unique experience is available for a limited time each year, typically from mid-January to late February, capturing the essence of the coldest and darkest winter nights. We will meet either at our Nallikari Experience Center or at your accommodation in Oulu, where we will provide thermal clothing. From there, transportation to Kuusisaari begins. Kuusisaari is located close to Oulu’s vibrant city center. As night falls, the city’s lights cast a magical glow over the icy landscape, creating a surreal fishing environment. Upon reaching the chosen fishing spot, you’ll find a heated tent waiting for you. This warm shelter provides comfort and respite from the chilly winter air, ensuring a pleasant experience throughout the night. You’ll have the opportunity to drill your own hole in the ice, and our guide will demonstrate effective techniques for baiting and luring burbots, sharing tips and tricks to enhance your fishing experience. With a little luck, you’ll experience the thrill of catching a burbot.
