On the picturesque banks of the Kama River is a very beautiful city - Tchaikovsky. About thirty large rivers and small rivers flow in the territory of the Perm Territory. It is not surprising that fishing (the city of Tchaikovsky) is a favorite entertainment of the local population both in winter and in summer. Someone is doing this effortlessly, just wanting to spend time with friends in nature, while someone, on the contrary, is fond of fishing so much that he does not miss a single trip to the river.
Kama's wealth
The most favorite place for fishermen, despite the variety of ponds near the city, is the Kama River. Fishing in Tchaikovsky is conducted in most cases on it. The river is very rich in various types of fish. Especially fishermen flock here from all over the country in order to try their luck and to hook such a rare individual as taimen or grayling. According to experts, these two species of fish are very rare in other bodies of water. But Kama "pampers" his fishermen with such a strange and rare catch.
What is caught?
As a rule, experienced fishermen begin the summer season in May. Fishing in Tchaikovsky is most often spinning or fishing. Fish especially likes maggots and worms, but sometimes it does not disdain bread crumbs as well. The bream and the carp, crucian carp and the bream, cheshone and dace go well. At night, catfish are caught well in local waters. As a rule, special casting rods are placed on it, made by oneself from a long spinning rod. Trout and sculpin, taimen and sterlet are also found in Kama. However, “silent” hunting for them is prohibited by law here.
Rivers and lakes
In addition, fishing in Tchaikovsky on the small Kos River is very popular. Here, the coast and nearby meadows are amazingly beautiful, amazing nature and clear water. There are many fish, and completely different. She is caught on any tackle. The main thing is to see in advance the forecast of fish biting in the city of Tchaikovsky.
Very often, local residents and visiting tourists visit Chusovskoye Lake. It is recognized as one of the most fishing places in the Perm region. The pond has a length of four kilometers and a width of about 18 km. In the lake, burbot and perch, roach and scavenger, crucian carp and pike perch, pike and grayling are often caught on a hook. You can also catch grayling in a small river called Visherki.
Winter fishing
There are a lot of local fishermen who prefer winter fishing. Tchaikovsky is a city of great fishing opportunities, as many experts say. In addition to the huge number of ponds where you can enjoy fishing in the winter, there are a lot of specialized tackle shops. This is especially convenient when you are a tourist who comes to rest and decides to treat himself to such a vacation as fishing.
Competitions among fishermen
Previously, only in the summer in Tchaikovsky competitions were held among fishermen. A few years ago, they began to compete in the winter, which gathered even more professional fishermen in the city. In winter, there was a struggle between those who prefer fishing for mormyshka and those who prefer baits. Both personal and team tests are carried out. This allows you to prove yourself and show team spirit.
As a rule, the organizers only designate a sector in the pond where you can catch. Every fisherman or team already chooses a place for himself. The organizers have repeatedly noted that every year fishing in the Perm Territory (Tchaikovsky) is only gaining momentum, attracting the attention of even the younger generation. Children come with their parents, teenagers gather in groups, breaking away from computers and cell phones, preferring winter outdoor recreation.
In 2016, as they say, both old and young participated in the competitions. The youngest participant is a boy of eight years old, the most adult is a man who has been fishing for more than seventy years. Such competitions, as experienced anglers say, are a great help for the younger generation. Fishing in Tchaikovsky is not just about outdoor enthusiasts. It acquaints and unites people for whom fishing is not just a hobby, but a full-fledged hobby, which is given the maximum amount of free time.
Paid fishing
Paid fishing is also in demand in Tchaikovsky. These are fishing bases: Obava, Pershino, Klyuchi, Gipsy log and many others. If you are not a fan of uncomfortable outdoor recreation, and it is important for you to fish where there will definitely be a rich catch, then paid fishing options will do just fine.
Many private ponds have the opportunity to catch trout or sterlet. Given that fishing in Kama is prohibited, paid ponds and lakes attract those who want to “hunt” for these types of fish. Paid fishing is also convenient in that you do not need to carry gear and fishing equipment with you on a trip out of town. No need to stock up on bait and bait in advance. Here you can rent a fishing rod or buy maggots, rent a boat or purchase top dressing.
Bite forecast
All fish that fishers hunt for is divided into two species: predatory and peaceful. The latter, as a rule, prefers sunny and warm days. So, from the beginning of May until the “Indian summer” in Tchaikovsky, crucian carp, bream, grass carp and white bream, tench, rudd, sabrefish and bleak, roach and gudgeon are perfectly caught.
As for predators, they were divided into two groups. The first includes those fish that actively peck in the cold (pike, chub, zander, ide). The second group includes those who prefer warmer weather (asp, perch, ruff, catfish). Crayfish also love warmth. In reservoirs of the city of Tchaikovsky and in all environs of the Perm Territory, crayfish are well caught from the end of April until October.
