Fishing in Dagestan

(с)

Fishermen are restless people...Constantly update their gear, looking for new catchable bait and explore new places...
Yesterday, during my evening walk I met my old friend and mentor in fishing primudrostey Eugene Baranov)). Can be said, was lucky)). Eugene has just returned from a long-distance fishing expedition to Dagestan, and we are all together sitting on a bench in one of the parks , listening to his story about his journey. About fishing, nature and the people living in these regions. That, and to tell uncle Eugene knows.

He went to Dagestan on behalf of the company Moscarella, expert in which Evgeny is for many years. His partner in this trip was Alexander Vorobyov, a multiple world champion in fishing spinning. Sasha is also an expert of the company Moskanella, and often goes to the tests of new gear and lures of this company and its brand Pontoon 21.

The journey was not easy. No, everything was great! Men to meet Caucasian hospitality, put guys in perfect conditions, has everything you need. Nature was beautiful... But the weather of our travelers have failed.(( The day before their arrival was very warm and Sunny, but during the 3 days of fishing it was very cold, then flew a strong wind and clouds with rain.

For fishing and testing new gear Zhenya and Sasha chose one of the Dagestan lakes with a very diverse water landscape. We hoped to catch and on the big water of the lake, and in a string of numerous reed channels. But the weather forced the guys to refuse to go to the big water. So all the days of fishing the guys spent in the ducts, among the walls of the reeds. Do you think this greatly prevented his uncle's Zhenya and Alexander? As it is not so... Real expert bad weather-not a big obstacle...
Both fishing and testing of new tackle and lures took place! Pecked pike, perch and even crucian carp with Rudd.

What recommended uncle Eugene on gear and bait to those who will gather in the hospitable Dagestan fishing? You should take at least 2 sets with you. The first-spinning ultra-light class 7-8 feet with a test by weight of lures to 7-8 grams, coil 1000-2000 line Shimano, cord #0,6 on the Japanese classification. Lures for fishing with this kit-baits and lures ( which fit into the test range of tackle) and a small set of micro-jig baits. The second set-light class rod with a test to 18-21 grams 7-8 feet, 2500-3000 coil in the line Shimano, cord # 1,0-1,2 according to the Japanese classification. With this kit, you can catch on the centerpiece and large ( up to 130 mm) lures, spinners and jig lures ( weight within the test range of the rod).

During the three-day fishing guys were accompanied by the operator of AnglersZoom fishing channel, and this fishing adventure turned out a wonderful film in 2 parts. The film has everything-and the beauty of nature and lakes of Dagestan, and a huge number of fish caught , and very detailed comments of fishermen themselves. I highly recommend to see it... Starring - uncle Zhenya and Alex Vorobyov.

It's kind of normal. Two fishermen in the boat. The fish are biting. But still how interesting to watch the work of these masters of their craft. And their stories during the whole action-just the invaluable information, the knowledge of which can take years. And the guys easily and without reticence to share their knowledge. Experts.....
