Fishing – only after severe frosts!

2 December 2020, Wednesday

Main Department of EMERCOM of Russia for the Republic of Tatarstan encourages anglers to open winter fishing season only after the onset of sustained cold weather, when the thickness and strength of ice on reservoirs of the Republic will be safe for walking on ice for her beloved hobby of tens of thousands of men and hundreds of women.

In the meantime, ice is still forming on the major navigable rivers of the Republic. This was announced by the Chief state inspector of the Republic of Tatarstan for small vessels Yuri Venediktov. According to him, solid ice with a thickness of more than 10 cm is only on internal reservoirs - lakes, bays and ponds. But on the beds of large rivers, such as the Volga and Kama, ice is still being formed.

Yuri Venediktov reminded that fans of winter fishing should always have safety equipment with them when going out on the ice. You also need to pay attention to the state of the ice. Black, transparent ice is the most reliable. If it is white, it is snow ice, which has much less strength.
