I would be enthusiastic for a simpler, and cheaper, option of going to
the
upper Laisan as well. Especially since I will probably go to the sand
ridge
country myself anyway...........

Hey Vaughan (Roger, et al)
What about a trip into Suomi? I know there are great areas in Northern
Finland where there are char, trout and salmon (although the salmon
permits
are expensive). I fished an area SE of Ivalo (I have to look at my maps
at
home to know the name specifically, bit I think it was the headwaters of
the
Kemijoki), and there were cheap cabins, a shop, and about 15 streams
accessible by foot or by car in the region. Several of the streams
drained
eastward into Russia, and they had the best fishing. It might be
interesting
to go there, and its not a LOT longer than a drive to northern Sweden.


The region I remember is Tulppio. I'd go back there in a heartbeat.

Tempting.......
This would mean a Lapland clave where I would not be clavemeister (Finnish
Lapland).

However, If Jarmo doesn't jump at the opportunity, I think I'll stay with
Swedish Lapland. It would after all simplify arranging things, at least for
me.
