Fishing Adventures in the Archipelago
Step from your Ylöstalo cottage directly into the heart of the action.

Archipelago fishing services and rental boats
Särkisalo is known as a dream destination for anglers. The Finnish record pike was caught right near Ylöstalo, and it wasn’t the last of its kind. Every year, several pikes weighing over 10 kilos are landed here, and the same waters offer excellent zander and perch. Sea trout, whitefish and Baltic herring complete the rich selection.
In these waters, every cast holds promise, and the next bite can arrive in an instant.


Accommodation, Boat and the Sea, All Ready for You
Ylöstalo’s seaside cottages and villas, each with their own sauna, make every fishing trip a pleasure. The cottages offer practical comfort: a fridge-freezer, a spacious yard and a pier accessible by boat. Cottage guests can also rent a motorboat.
Rental boats are suitable for 2–3 anglers. Boats can be reserved when booking your cottage, and refueling is available at Förby Marina, just 10 minutes away. Easy, clear, and convenient. Send your inquiry by email. More important information for anglers can be found here.
When the Sea Calls
Bring your own boat and launch it directly from Ylöstalo’s harbour, or have a rental boat waiting for you. Either way, you’ll be on the water in no time.
But fishing is so much more than equipment and boats. It is quietness, a settling of the mind and the gift of unhurried time. The calm morning sea, the calls of seabirds and the anticipation of the next strike, it feels like the archipelago’s own retreat.
At the end of the day, the sauna warms up and the sea brings its gentle peace. At our place, there is no need to perform. You can simply be.
