Yokanga
The waters of the Yokanga are home to some of the largest Atlantic salmon on the Kola Peninsula and provide a challenging environment in which to fish. We see well over 100 salmon over the magic 20lb mark landed every season with the record year producing over 250 salmon of this size to less than 100 rods. Among these figures are a good number of 30+lb fish and numerous fishermen have landed their largest Atlantic salmon on the Yokanga. The river provides a real chance of big salmon in a true wilderness environment yet with all creature comforts a fisherman may require.
Fishing from Yokanga Lodge is for just 12 rods on some of the best salmon holding water on the river. The top two beats are accessed using an EC-125 Eurocopter with the rest of the beats reached using Solar 450 jetboats. Once fishing on your beat, the guide has a boat which is used for crossing pools and making speedy progress through the lake sections. Two rods share a guide and one rod at a time can fish from the boat to cover lies that simply could not be covered from the shore.
