Fishing in Bratsk which fish are caught, place fish

In Russia, a lot of fish places, for which professional and amateur fishing are ready to overcome hundreds of kilometers. One of the "rich" in the reservoirs of the region is the Irkutsk region and the surrounding areas to it. Despite the rather harsh climate, it is well-developed fishing, but fans are not left without a catch. Especially good fishing in Bratsk, because next to him a lot, both large and small reservoirs.

A brief history of the city of

City Bratsk, built in 1955, was home to the builders and maintenance staff Bratsk HPP. Next to it once was located Bracka fortress, founded in 1631 on the verge of Padunskie to protect connected regions and further promotion of Russian explorers deep into Siberia. Young city received the name of the former prison, and was called in a modern way "Bratsk".

Today it is a major industrial center with well-developed infrastructure, which is home to more than two hundred thousand people. Since in this region the heating season lasts about 250 days, more often than not, talking about fishing in Bratsk, people imagine ice fishing. But in reality, close to the town there are excellent ponds, on the shores of which you can not only fish, but also simply relax hot, but short summers.

Nature near the city of

Not far from Bratsk is a few large and many small water bodies. Some of them formed during the construction of several hydropower stations, others - are natural lakes and rivers.

While in the city the coastline of the largest man-made sea in the country occupies only 300 meters, it was called "the Bratsk reservoir." Fishing on it excellent, but (according to local fishermen) need to know the place where the bite is especially good. Probably, it is important that the coastal line of the reservoir is practically mastered by people. Here, instead of camping and recreation sandy beach, surrounded by a lot of vegetation.

Ust-Ilim reservoir - is another man-made object, which is now full of fish, but it was not always. Old-timers remember the days when the reservoir was contaminated waters upstream of the Bratsk Reservoir. Then not only decreased the fish population, but also impoverished fauna in the nearby woods.

River Vikhareva and Bud also attract fishermen, but as the only local rule, as this part of the district badly waterlogged.

The wealth of local reservoirs

Siberian rivers have long fed the people fish, little has changed in this regard today. If you go on a fishing trip to Bratsk, you should stock up on various types of bait, hooks and spinners, as in the area inhabited by a wide variety of freshwater fish, which can rise to the bait.

Thus, local fishermen say that often they catch those species of fish:

• Grayling, which is best fished with spinning. The experienced fishermen as bait is recommended to take the usual worms or Bormashov (local small crustaceans), but grayling in waters so much that you can even use plain artificial lures made independently. Some fishermen brag that was attached to the hooks winding with cock brown or red feathers, and fish pecking non-stop. To catch grayling, you can specifically search for places fish in Bratsk. Fishing will be good, and from the shore and from a boat.
• Chir and whitefish - a "large caliber" fishes, which tends to get in their catch any self-respecting fisherman. Average weight whitefish, for example, reaches 4 kg, although sometimes the fishing Bratsk may surprise in the form of copies that weigh up to 11 kg.
• Bream, carp, perch and carp can be called a common fish.
• Common carp, pike, sturgeon and omul - a fisherman's other desirable production. They come across not so often, but if the right place to lure and act slowly, then patience will be rewarded. Experienced fishermen are sometimes advised to try different kinds of baits and caught the first fish to open to see what was in her stomach. The carp, pike or cisco fed for the last time? The same bait should be used.
• Rudd and Roach - a "consolation prize" for fishermen who have fishing Bratsk failed. They are always caught, both in winter and summer.

These are the main species of fish that fall for the bait. If you believe those who have been fishing in these areas, no one disappointed of the city of Bratsk not leaving.

Fraternal reservoir

Today it is a man-made sea is the second in the world in terms of water. Once to create it needed not only to build the dam, which took five years, but also to fill the reservoir with water, which flows into it from 1961 to 1967.

Once there was a time when the ecology of the area was under threat because built on the shores of the Bratsk reservoir timber processing plant dumped its waste production in its waters. Naturally, the fish in that period in the artificial sea was impossible.

Much time was spent on the restoration and cleaning of the reservoir, after which it launched specially grown for its water fingerlings of various species of fish. Today, fishing in Bratsk - a mundane thing as fisheries, shipping, recreation on the shores of the reservoir.

Concern about the safety and purity of the sea reflected in the fact that its waters each year producing new batches of fry, to increase the fish population. Local fishermen say that now it does not matter, throws man spinning from the shore or float rod catches from the boat, the catch will still be good.

Ust-Ilim reservoir

Another man-made sea (only smaller) attracts anglers. Construction of the Ust-Ilim reservoir has caused significant damage to local flora and fauna. It was flooded a large area of ​​forest land, which led to a reduction in the population of foxes, stoats, weasels and muskrats.

It took more than a year to this dam and its banks have become the new "home" for plants, animals and fish. The volume of fishing craft on average 430 tons of fish per year, whose main prey are perch and roach.

But amateur fishermen get a good catch, although many still prefer the full-flowing water of the Bratsk Reservoir and nearby lakes.

Fishing on local lakes

Earlier, a dam was built on the Angara River, so it affected the flow of the river and its tributaries. In some places, sections of the channel shifted, forming oxbow lake. They are immediately recognizable. They are characterized by the curved shape of a crescent.

During the formation of the lakes they were the same species of fish that inhabit the river feeding it water. Fishing in Bratsk lakes popular with local fishermen who know these places.

The main prey of the fishermen are cisco, grayling ubiquitous, carp and perch. To return home with their catch, should spare no time to lure and fish well on these lakes and fished from the shore.

River fishing

If you believe the reviews of fishermen, the perfect place for fishing is the Bud - river Bratsk. Although there is talk that the fishermen frighten the bear, but the desire to excel major catch to boast of them in front of friends, stronger.

Fishing on the river is particularly suitable for beginners, since production is so much that for a long time did not have to wait for fish. Enough to throw the water millet porridge, mixing it with any bait (e.g., Allvega). Already after 5-10 minutes begins Poquelin.

The most common carp caught, but large enough. Bream, roach and perch are less common, but still pleasing to the weight and size.

This is not the only river in Bratsk, where fishing is so good that "hunters" to sit down even once. Experienced anglers (and newcomers) often go catch on the rocks near the village of Tanguy.
