Local fishing reviews
In past years, there were indeed many fishermen here, but recently there have been fewer of them. Increasingly, they choose other water bodies for their leisure time. But why has everything changed?

Also, the reservoir is gradually shrinking, because of this, fishing from the shore is not available in all places. To stay with at least some catch, you need to use a boat. In addition, mostly only crucian comes across. Predator comes across very rarely.
Also, recently the shores are filled with vacationers and recreation centers. And in the vicinity there are fishing farms that set up their nets. For these reasons, most fishermen are looking for more suitable waters for their leisure time.
