The number of people wishing to go fishing in the Don is growing steadily every year. The reason for this is not only the close location of the regional center - Rostov-on-Don. A variety of catch also attracts fishing enthusiasts on the banks of one of the largest rivers in southern Russia. After all, it is here that you can catch truly trophy specimens.
Variety of the underwater world of Don
About a hundred species of fish inhabit the waters of the Don, which can become prey for both experienced and novice fishers. Biting in Rostov-on-Don is simply excellent, even an inexperienced lover will not be left empty-handed. The most valuable can be the fish of the sturgeon family, which since ancient times symbolized our country. However, catching such a trophy is becoming increasingly difficult every year due to the strong decline in the population.
In the waters of the Don live carps, perches, crucians. In the autumn and winter, zander is excellently caught. In Rostov-on-Don, fishing can please you with a minnier or a weighty catfish. There are also other equally interesting specimens, however, they are much less common, and therefore the chances of getting them are much less.
Fishing in winter
Winter fishing in Rostov attracts only real fans of this business, since the river is completely covered with ice, and the temperature in the street is quite low. Not everyone is attracted to such climatic conditions. However, the result is worth it. First of all, in order to fish in the winter, you need to have a basic set of gear and warm clothes. It is better to take gear with a reserve, since quite often there is a break in fishing line and other minor troubles.
In Rostov-on-Don, fishing in winter can please zander and ram. It is best to use bloodworms as bait. Also during this period, bream, carp, crucian carp and perch fall on the hook. The use of bait is necessary, because otherwise you can wait a long time for biting.
Spring fishing
In Rostov-on-Don, fishing in the spring is the most productive. True, for this, the fishermen have a rather short period: from March 15 to March 31, then a ban on fishing begins, associated with the spawning period. However, it is at this time that you can catch all types of fish that are only found in the waters of the Don. Here neither amateurs nor professionals will remain offended. The bait goes absolutely any.
Bait can also be used at will, the most diverse. The fact is that after the winter famine, before the spawning period, the fish tends to get saturated as soon as possible. This leads to an unprecedented bite.
Summer fishing
In Rostov-on-Don, fishing in the summer is not the best way. The fact is that daytime heat significantly reduces the appetite of fish and nibble becomes simply disgusting. But early in the morning and in the evening, the situation can change dramatically. However, the time interval when the fish begins to eat intensely is very short, so the fisherman needs to not miss it and use it to the maximum. Best caught perch, carp and crucian carp. The rest of the fish during this period is very difficult.
Paid fishing in Rostov
Despite the abundance of places for free fishing, there are also paid fishing bases in Rostov. Fishing here differs mainly in that you are provided with additional services and amenities. For example, you can use the barbecue, deck chairs, rent gear. The latter is very important for those who have come from far away or just to stay in this wonderful city and have not taken the necessary accessories with them.
In Rostov-on-Don, fishing brings a lot of pleasure and a positive experience. Many people come to go fishing for more than one day. Therefore, again, the bases for paid fishing turn out to be relevant, providing the opportunity for a comfortable overnight stay. There is a full service: comfortable beds, shower, dining room, meals, TV and the Internet. Seats can be reserved in advance. Families come here to rest with their families, not only for fishing, but also in order to have a great time in nature, to relax from the bustle of the city.
Thanks to the rich underwater world in Rostov-on-Don, fishing turns into a real pleasure. Even if you did not count on a rich catch, Don will still not leave you without a presentation. And here you can catch almost anything. Sometimes the catch can be a real surprise for the fisherman, pleasant memories of which he will share with family and friends for a long time.
