Fishing in Keuruu

Keuruu is a true example of ‘Lake Finland’, with well over 300 lakes and ponds of all sizes. The largest of our lakes is Keurusselkä, which surrounds the centre of Keuruu and connects Mänttä at its southe end with Keuruu at its northe end. The lake is approximately 30 km long. It is an interesting lake with its many islands and headlands; the largest bay is Keurusselkä, which also gave its name to Hotel Keurusselkä.

The fisheries management fee must be paid if you are aged between 18 and 69 (with the exception of anglers who will have reached the age of 65 by 31 December 2023) and fish with lures or traps, or catch crayfish. You do not need to pay the fisheries management fee if you only use a rod and line, ice fish, or are under 18 or have already tu ed 69. However, you are still welcome to pay the fisheries management fee as a contribution to the fishing waters!
