Väinö Kalajärvi 35 Ice Fishing Backpack

Väinö Kalajärvi 35 got 4 stars and a school grade of 8.5 in the 01/2024 Erälehti review. It earned praise for its easily removable container (ice fishing shelter) from inside the backpack, portability, and plenty of storage space for gear too.

Väinö Kalajärvi is a great tool for winter anglers. It combines a traditional ice fishing shelter and a backpack. The backpack is made from coated 600D polyester. Inside the backpack, there's a plastic lidded fish container that you can sit on. You can conveniently drop your catch into the fish container through the hole on top during fishing. The backpack has a reinforced waterproof bottom. The backpack's shoulder straps are padded and 7cm wide. On the side, there are two smaller pockets where you can easily put something like a thermos bottle. Outside the pocket, there are spots for example for rods. On the other side, under a protective flap, there's a zippered pocket for example for jigs and lures. In the front, a larger pocket for storing snacks.
