msp Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Hey guys, Every once in a while my old man sends me some pictures from relatives in Finland. Its always fun exchnaging pics over seas. These pictures were from last month from a relative that spends quite a bit of time fishing in Lapland.Im not much of a trout guy and have not researched this fish but Im guessing some kind of Char ?
kickingfrog Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Agreed about it looking like a char. My first thought was Arctic char This site has three chars listed: http://fish.mongabay.com/data/Finland.htm
dnb_cbr Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 the fish in the bottom pic has the most aesthetic face i have ever seen on a fish. What a cutie!
misfish Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Thats so cool, that you have family over there.

kuhaman Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Beauty char!! Spent a lot of my youth fishing in Finland but never caught one of those beauts
Harrison Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 At first glance the top pic looks like your friend found a nice brookie on the bank and sent you a joke pic!
Roy Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 It's not a henway. A henways only 2-3 pounds.
aplumma Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 My mistake the only Char we got down here is on toast. Art
Terry Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 must be an arctic char http://arcticcentre.ulapland.fi/docs/Arctic_fish_species.pdf
WeedLine Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 Iso Kala. When are we getting more salmiakki? I think Roy is right, nice Atlantic carp
Roy Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 It IS an Atlantic. We're just not used to seeing them that way in Lake O is all.
Rizzo Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 the most aesthetic face i have ever seen on a fish. What a cutie! you need help
dnb_cbr Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 you need help I need help...... gettin her to come to the rock pile with me, if Ya konw what I mean. Har Har Har
Rizzo Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 at least choose a sucker or carp or some other kissable fish...not that I would know
kickingfrog Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 You're right Roy, I've never seen a trout look like that.
bigugli Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 Time for some savustettu nieria served with a bowl of moujakka and korppu
kuhaman Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 It IS an Atlantic. We're just not used to seeing them that way in Lake O is all. Char
