Personal fly fishing Guide

Hi! My name is Aki Huhtanen and I live in Kilpisjärvi. I have worked as a full-time fishing and wilderness guide in Kilpisjärvi for 20 years. My passion is dry fly fishing for Giant Grayling! But I love all northern fish species, such as Whitefish, Brown, Sea Trout, Arctic Char, and Pike as well.

Come fish in my beautiful home waters!

Grayling, Brown, White fish, Arctic char, Sea trout, Pike, ...

I offer guided fly fishing in Kilpisjärvi and the Käsivarsi wilderness area. The Kilpisjärvi area, including the Swedish and Norwegian sides, offers an incredible amount of fly fishing opportunities. Hundreds of kilometers of floatable, fishable water within just an one hour drive/river boat ride of village. Add to this an endless amount of lakes, ponds, small streams and you have an angler's paradise.

Combine floating and wading to hit water that shore anglers can't reach!

On these tours, we use inflatable river boats and white water rafts to access best fishing spots that are impossible to access on foot, and then go wade and methodically fish them. Sometimes we also fish from a boat. But usually it's just our taxi to quickly get to new fishing spots.

Tours are suitable for every skill level, from beginners to experienced fishers. Kids are welcome, and I love to share my passion and knowledge. The trip will be customised to suit your skill level.

Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, I’m happy to chat.

Tight lines! -Aki
