Popular reservoirs for fishing in the Astrakhan region

In the area of ​​the Astrakhan region, a huge number of reservoirs, channels, rivers, peals and private ponds are concentrated, where you can spend a comfortable and exciting fishing.

Consider the most promising fishing spots.

Fishing on the Akhtuba river

Of course, fishing on one of the largest and longest rivers of the floodplain will be remembered by the angler for a long time. The river is over 500 kilometers long. Every year they go there from many parts of our country to try their luck and catch a very large carp, catfish, pike, or to pull
weighty bream onto the feeder .

It is worth remembering that Akhtuba is a large river that has a habit of overflowing in the spring months.

Buzan river

Another large river in the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain is the Buzan River. The river is slightly inferior in size to Akhtuba, but in no way inferior in fish wealth. On the contrary, Buzan is located closer to the Caspian Sea, so in April-May the river is literally teeming with hungry roach.
They catch it for almost everything, but still, the fish gives more preference to animal baits. The favorite delicacy of the vobla is the red worm, bloodworm, maggot and burdock. As many fishermen assure, during spawning, two or even three roaches can instantly cling to the fishing rod. It is worth remembering that in most cases it is allowed to catch up to 5 kilograms of this fish per day. But not only lovers of roach can hope for a good result in the regions of Buzan. This river has many pits and pools where you can fish for a trophy and lively catfish or carp.

The region of the Gerasimovka river in the Akhtuba region

The Gerasimovka River is famous among fans of donk fishing
and
spinning . It is located much higher than the previously named rivers, which allows it to be in the very center of the whole floodplain. On average, the width of the river is 300-400 meters. The depth of the river is over 10 meters. These wide and deep places are pretty popular with asp, perch and even buffalo, for which fishermen from the neighboring floodplain regions go. Predatory fish in these places is taken for almost all types of
lures and
wobblers , but still it is worth alternating them with rubber baits as often as possible.
… So you can easily calculate the taste preferences of a predator at a certain time and take advantage of this in all its glory. In the spring months, asp and pike often leave for small bays created by river flooding. This is where you should look for a trophy result.
All of the above rivers are incredibly popular not only among the fishermen of the region, but also among the fishermen of the whole country. Moreover, you can go fishing in Astrakhan as a savage or with all the conveniences, visiting a well-equipped base with highly qualified huntsmen.

Fishing law in Astrakhan

Most recently, in 2019, a new law on fishing in the Astrakhan region came into force. Most of the measures have been significantly tightened. Now you should know a few main points of this law, so as not to be faced with impressive fines. During the spawning season from May 16 to June 20, fishing is prohibited everywhere. The only exceptions are water areas adjacent to the territories of any settlements. Crayfish fishing is prohibited from April 1 to June 30. The rest of the time, you can fish with many existing tackles: donka, feeder, float rod, rakolovka, spinning. The main thing to remember is the observance of some rules while fishing. For example, the amount of hooks per person, regardless of how many rods he has, should not exceed five. Also, one fisherman should have no more than three crayfish.

The most basic rule is the prohibition of catching rare fish species listed in the Red Book everywhere. Thus, it is impossible to catch the following inhabitants of the reservoir: sturgeon, herring (in addition to herring-blackback, which is a fairly common object of catching), kutum, barbel, whitefish, vimba, burbot, badyaga. And also the catching of the Caspian seal is strictly prohibited.

Catch rates have also been adjusted. Now, since August 2019, the daily catch is 10 kg. The catch rate for a single fish species is 5 kg. That is, these permissible 10 kilograms may include several types of caught fish, but it is important that the weight of one of them does not exceed 5 kg. This restriction applies to all types of fish, with the exception of freshwater catfish. It is allowed to catch one specimen of this handsome man per day, regardless of its weight.

Subject to all of the above rules, fishing will not cause trouble and will only bring maximum pleasure. It is important not to forget about the strictly established rules of fishing, because the penalties can be impressive. On average, from 2 to 5 thousand rubles with the possible confiscation of the floating craft and fishing gear. Catching the inhabitants of the reservoir listed in the Red Book carries more serious punishments. Map of Three Rivers – a fishing paradise in the Astrakhan region:
