Fish competition

Häkkänen and Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo It has been a fun -loving fishing competition for years.

Minister Häkkänen won last year’s fishing competition. Last year, Häkkänen told Iltalehti the biggest catch of a 6.5 kg pike and a 5.1 kg perch. Häkkänen received both fish in Mäntyharju. Prime Minister Orpo received his largest single fish from Åland. It was a 3.9 kg pike.

Prime Minister Orpo commented to Iltalehti on Midsummer that this year he wants to click on Häkkä in the competition.

“Of course, the goal is to do it, Orpo comments.

– Häkkänen has been petrified last summer and I guess I have won the last couple, so now I have a trip here, the prime minister admitted.

If there was no time for the cottage, Orpo thought there would be a perch rising from Kesäranta.

– Sometimes you could still try it.
