Late November Fishing in the SW Finland Archipelago

 November is one of the best times to visit the Finnish Archipelago at the Baltic Sea. It's quiet everywhere, and it's dark. There're no tourists, actually there's nobody. There's a saying that archipelago is at it's best when the water is dark, the land is white and the liquer is clear. Sure it is true. The effective fishing time is seven hours, from 9 AM to 4 PM. That's enough.
Water temperature was a bit over 5 C. We were after trouts, but ended with pikes. Pikes to freeze for the whole winter.

 A strange thing: sunshine. The fishes were afraid of sun in November, they didn't eat during the bright day. Not even a single bite!

 
Plus two degrees keeps your food fresh, and also you.
