We report the discovery of five nova candidates in M81 found on a co-added 1100-s narrow-band H-alpha CCD image taken on 2012 Jan. 9.102 UT with the 2.54-m Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) at La Palma. The new objects are visible on the single frames used for the co-added image, but are not present on numerous narrow-band H-alpha archival images from the INT down to limiting magnitude as faint as H-alpha = 22.3.
