Catching predatory fish on the river Oka from a boat

Oka River is the closest to Moscow from the big rivers of the Volga basin. You can get to the shores of Oka from the capital in just a couple of hours. It is because of the proximity of Oka, probably, the most popular river in Moscow fishermen, and especially Spinningistov. In Oke live all kinds habitual for fishermen of average strip of Russia predatory fishes. But most spinningists are sent here hoping to catch a pike perch. Pike perch in Oke-dominating kind. And it is caught on open water from early spring to late autumn...

The bulk of spinning on the Oka catches from the shore. Typical places that can bring success in capturing the Oka predators are places with reverse flow and bumps. The same anglers, who know how to “read” the river, manage to find underwater mounds and scythe, which are super points for this fast river. With such underwater structures you can catch all kinds of predatory fish living in the river. I besides Sudak and pike come across asp, catfish, burbot (in the fall). On sand and pebble shallows, which are countless in the Oka, you can purposefully catch the chub and ide.

If at your disposal there is a boat, and even better equipped on all modern requirements a boat, then catching spinning on Oka acquires absolutely new opportunities and prospects. After all, a huge number of prospective locations are simply inaccessible from the shore. Do not add bait to them, no matter how hard you try ((.
This season, Roma Baykov finally arrived with his new boat to Oka and filmed a video story about catching the oxi predators. As always, the Phil turned out interesting and beautiful. And the fish caught in the frame confirms that in 80-100 km from Moscow fishing is still promising and effective.

By the way, one of the best baits for Oka-a usual foam fish 7 cm long. Colors Black and blue-favorites;-). Although others catch not worse.
