Catching Predatory Fish on the Volga River

Residents of Astrakhan say that those that have ever gone fishing in the Volga River will be hooked and definitely come back. It is no surprise that they think like this. In just one day in the lower rivers of the Volga people catch not only a lot of fish, but a lot of different types of them. With no trouble at all fishermen catch perch, feel how pike perch fight back against the line and struggle against the mighty northern pike. And all of this just in one fishing trip! While fishing on a river boat people can gather quite the collection of trophies from the Volga – pike perch, northern perch and catfish. Catching these fish doesn’t have to require too much effort either if you try trolling. The Volga River, the largest river in Europe, is so big that creatures that do not normally live in the same environments find themselves living side by side, making the fishing all the more rewarding.
