Angling permit area

4570 Maasydänjärvi and Ahvenlampi

Lake Maasydänjärvi and Ahvenlampi Pond are located in the municipality of Sievi in Northern Ostrobothnia. This permit area offers great opportunities for fly fishing enthusiasts and other recreational anglers.

Maasydänjärvi is a full-service fishing destination for many kinds of fishers. Fishing at Ahvenlampi is a more rugged experience in the quiet wilderness where the exhilaration of fly fishing can truly be felt. Catch-sized rainbow trout is planted into these ponds in the summer and anglers might also run into a whitefish or two.
