4,297-acre Raahe - Hailuoto. Sector 06 Finland coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Finnish hydrographic chart/DTM assessed contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Syke VHS 2022 named coastal water in Bothnian Bay. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 11 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit official hydrographic-chart depth models, so the contours are chart-derived rather than computer-modeled; no directly measured sounding coverage is claimed. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Vesi piirtyy 1 739 hehtaarin laajuisena, rantaa 22.2 km. Rantaviiva on kohtalaisen rikkonainen (indeksi 1.5). Noin 18% pinnasta on matalampaa kuin ~5 m — siellä ruokaketju elää. Päästä päähän vesi mittaa noin 9.8 km, leveimmillään 2.7 km. Lähin kartoitettu vesi on Olkijoki - Siikajoki - Säärenperä - Central West, 4.8 km koilliseen.

Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. Start at Deepest basin. It's a deep basin holding about 10 m of water and rates prime come fall. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Sharp break (5.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deepest basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Raahe - Hailuoto - Sector 06 hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Sharp break first on the milk run — a drop-off near 5.5 m that grades good for fall. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (5.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Syksy | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (5.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talvi | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shoreline point (4.5 m) | Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for atlantic herring tight to the bank in 1.5 to 7.5 m. They move out to 3.5 to 11 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deepest basin: a deep basin around 10 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (4 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Kesä | 3.5 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (10 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Syksy | 2.5 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (10 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deepest basin (10 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european whitefish in 2.5 to 11 m. The depth story barely changes: 3.5 to 11 m through summer, 3.5 to 11 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Deepest basin, a deep basin in the 10 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small vertical spoon or a micro jig gets it done.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 2.5 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (10 m) | Small silver spoon, Micro blade bait |

| Talvi | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deepest basin (10 m) | Small jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for sea trout tight to the bank in 1 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 3.5 to 11 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 9 m. Start at Rock reef. It's a rock pile holding about 4 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (4 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Kesä | 3.5 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (5.5 m) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Syksy | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (6 m) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Talvi | 1.5 to 9 m | midday | Rock reef (4 m) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
In spring, european smelt run shallow here, mostly 1 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 3.5 to 11 m before dropping to 3.5 to 11 m for winter. Summer european smelt concentrate at Deepest basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 10 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny vertical spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

No active municipality-, consortium-, or state-owned LIPAS fishing, boating, beach, swimming, canoe or motor-boat facility matched within 400 metres of this exact mapped shoreline. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, local signs, parking, safety, permits and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Finland waters are set by the Kalastusrajoitus.fi (official current Finnish fishing-restriction service) — and special regulations can apply to Raahe - Hailuoto - Sector 06 specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Kalastusrajoitus.fi, current protection periods and permit requirements before every Finnish coastal trip. Local no-fishing areas, river-mouth restrictions, protected species, minimum sizes, seasonal closures, gear rules, the fisheries-management fee and water-owner permissions may apply. A mapped hydrographic contour, fishing-spot marker or nearby LIPAS public facility is planning context only and never grants fishing, retention, shoreline entry, parking, launching or safe-navigation permission.
