Norolan's Story

Norolan’s Story 

In the heart of Finland’s beautiful Lakeland, surrounded by pure nature and the waters of Lake Saimaa, lies the home of Norolan. Here, among countless lakes, fishing has been a part of life for thousands of years. Norolan was founded in Mikkeli in 2019, and a few decades earlier, so was Norolan’s  founder, Jyrki. He is one of us: someone deeply passionate about fishing.

"To me, fishing is a feeling of freedom, of trusting your gear and leaving everything unnecessary behind. As an angler, I knew what a top-performing lure should be like, and as a jewelry maker, I knew how to make it. I can proudly say Norolan reflects my values of traditional craftsmanship and pure Finnish quality. Tight lines!"

Responsible Finnish Craftsmanship for the World

Though still a young company, Norolan has grown beyond being a one-man lure workshop. Today, we are a team of passionate individuals, each with a unique love for fishing and appreciation for skilled, local craftsmanship. The values of responsibility and sustainability are more present in our work than ever before.

At Norolan, we don’t sell just anything. We carefully select each product in our lineup, only items we fully believe in and would proudly use ourselves. For us, responsibility means using 100% lead-free and eco-friendly materials in both our products and packaging. Our commitment extends to our subcontractors too, as we encourage them to choose responsible, sustainable materials alongside us.

We at Norolan are anglers ourselves, and we create lures by anglers, for anglers. Lures we truly want to fish with.

Breaking Free from Throwaway Culture

Since day one, Norolan has been rooted in creating meaningful fishing experiences and inspiring anglers to make more sustainable choices.

Norolan is not  and never will be part of throwaway culture. Our philosophy is built on the belief that fishing gear must be something you can trust completely. We believe you don’t need hundreds of lures for a meaningful fishing trip just the right rod and a few trusted lures you can count on.

The Catch of a Lifetime

We want everyone to have the chance to catch the fish of a lifetime. For some, that might be a trophy perch worthy of the record books, for others, it might be their very first pike.

We’re thrilled to see that many customers have shared reviews telling us they’ve done just that with our lures,  caught the fish of their lives.
