✅ Fishing reports North Ossetia

Alanya reservoirs

Good fishing in North Ossetia is associated with the presence of the Azas nature reserve in this region. Among the popular ecologically clean lakes of this area, such lakes of North Ossetia as lakes Kadysh and Many-Khol stand out. They are not easy to reach; there is no public transport connection to these natural bodies of water - but their magnificent nature and good fishing compensate for all the inconveniences of travel. On these and some other lakes in the region, good or even very good fishing is provided at any permitted time. According to the rules of the Azas Nature Reserve, fishing here is allowed in the periods from December 1 to April 30 - ice fishing, and from July 2 to September 30 - summer-autumn amateur fishing. Especially for fishermen, the lakes of North Ossetia have cordons with hygienic facilities. During the cold season, the cordons can accommodate groups of up to 5 people for temporary residence and up to 10 people in the warm season if tents are available. The type of life here is taiga.

Fishermen in North Ossetia report in other places in the republic that now they do not have enough places where they can go fishing well; many go to other areas - to the Don and Volga. The places where you can now fish in North Ossetia include lakes such as Brut, Bekan, Nikolaevskaya, ponds on Der-Durka, a lake near Ardon, Desken, and unnamed lakes. The fish that can be fished for in the lakes of North Ossetia are small carp, up to a kilogram, large crucian carp, and carp.

Free fishing in the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania

Fishing in North Ossetia and Vladikavkaz is very diverse, interesting and catchy. This is facilitated by the presence of a large number of reservoirs and the wide species diversity of fish for which these reservoirs are famous.

First of all, fishermen are required to have a special approach to the selection of gear and bait. But an equally important factor is choosing the right place for fishing. The presence of a large number of reservoirs greatly increases the complexity of this process, but after a little observation of local fishermen or studying forums, you can clearly determine for yourself what kind of fish is caught and where.

Features of fishing in Alanya

The most awaited season in North Ossetia is the trout fishing season, which begins in April. Not only local fishermen, but also visitors love to hunt for trout. Most fans prefer to fish on mountain rivers. High-quality fishing on the lakes of Ossetia is associated with the location of the Azas nature reserve in this region. There are such ecologically clean lakes as Many-Khol and Kadysh here. Getting to these lakes is not easy, since there is no transport connection, but a good catch and wonderful nature can compensate for all the inconveniences. The rules of the Azas Nature Reserve define two periods of the year when fishing is allowed: ice fishing - from December 1 to April 30; summer-autumn - from July 2 to September 30. Cordons with hygienic facilities are equipped here especially for fishing enthusiasts.

In North Ossetia you can also fish on lakes - Nikolaevskoye, Brut, Bekan, Desken, and unnamed lakes. Mostly large crucian carp, small carp, weighing up to 1 kg, and carp are found here. On lakes Kardzhin and Darg-Koh you can catch grass carp and silver carp. To organize fishing in North Ossetia on your own, you need to find out whether there are prohibitions and permitted periods of fishing on a specific body of water in the republic, and also study local legislation on environmental management. A simpler solution is to use the services of a fishing and tourism company that organizes tours, provides bases and guest houses for rest and overnight stay.

In many places in Ossetia, noisy and fast mountain rivers flow, where you can often find the most desirable prey for a fisherman - trout. In flat places where mountain rivers flow, species such as chub, barbel and podust are found in abundance. Previously, while there were no dams on the Terek, Caspian salmon spawned in many upper reaches of the Terek tributary. Nowadays, salmon can only ascend the Terek up to the place where the dam of the Terek-Kum Canal is located near Mozdok.

Fishing in North Ossetia for trout is usually carried out using a bamboo three-knee folding rod, the line is about 2 meters long, and the diameter is 0.25-0.30 mm; the line is not equipped with a float. The fishing line has a sinker of 12-15 grams, which, as a rule, is located at a distance of 25 cm from the hook. Typically, sharp hooks No. 7-10 of angular shape are used.

Despite the fact that the equipment does not have a float, the trout bite can be clearly felt through strong pushes in the hand. When the angler feels that he is being pushed, he immediately makes a hook. But recently, many fishermen are starting to use long fishing line equipped with a float. This is done so as not to scare the fish and not come close to the water.

You can catch trout with a fishing rod almost throughout the year. In rivers of glacial origin, trout fishing is interrupted from the second half of June or in July, when the heat sets in. During this period, the snow in the Jurassic begins to melt intensively and the water level in these reservoirs rises greatly, the water becomes cloudy. At this moment, the trout interrupts its feeding, and it becomes very difficult to find it in the river. Also, biting activity is greatly reduced or may stop altogether in January and last until the end of February if fairly severe frosty weather sets in. The water becomes very cold, and the rivers become quite shallow. But this happens quite rarely. Winters in North Ossetia are usually quite mild.

Trout can be caught in the springs throughout the year, and the best time to catch it is considered to be autumn and spring. In the spring, from the end of March and almost until the end of April, trout actively feed, and active feeding of trout occurs with the onset of August, when the water has brightened, and also before the onset of spawning.

Throughout the year, trout are excellently caught on dead fish no larger than 3 cm in size. Place the fry on a hook through the mouth, so that the hook tip is hidden in the caudal fin, which gives the fry a curved shape. This form of bait is the most preferred for trout. Anglers have long noticed that if the fish hangs straight on the hook, the trout will practically not pay attention to it.

Fishing in Ossetia for trout using live bait is always very interesting and often pleases anglers with good catches. They get fry from almost any spring, where they are always in abundance. Usually fry are caught with small reeds measuring approximately 2 square meters. In those fishing areas where there are no fry or very few of them, they bring them with them. Larger individuals usually bite on the fry. During the muddy water season, trout begin to bite well on the underleaf worm. From April until autumn, trout are excellently caught using caddis flies and butterfly larvae, called “boogers” by local fishermen, which are found at the trout fishing site. The booger lives in almost all mountain rivers. But in the very upper reaches of rivers, as well as in streams, it is not there, and when going fishing in these places, you need to stock up on this bait in advance.

Fishing Features

Trout fishing in Ossetia

Walking trout fishing in North Ossetia involves moving along the river bank to the whirlpools or from the riffle to the riffle, where trout usually stay. Thus, you can walk 12-15 km in a day.

One of the important aspects in trout fishing is the angler's equipment. His clothes should be light and comfortable, so as not to restrict his movements in any way. A light raincoat and high rubber boots are a must. Because the weather in the mountains changes often. Even in the summer, a cold wind can suddenly blow and rain, and in some cases even snow, and become suddenly colder. In such cases, it’s a good idea to have sweaters or a light jacket in your backpack. A small compact plywood box that can be carried on the shoulder with a belt is perfect for storing caught trout. In such a box, fish is kept fresh for a long time if it is covered with nettle leaves and stems.

Fishing in Nikolaev RSO-A

Good afternoon gentlemen and ladies! Yesterday I was on a boarding trip in Nikolaevskaya. We go there often. I caught three carp weighing 6, 4 and 3 kg.

Caught on hair with fermented corn. I fed it with cake + granules + corn flour + fermented corn.

Carp were caught at the pay site - urgently cut the post.

What to do if they don’t know how to catch anything else?

Do you know a lot of fish in the mountain rivers of the Caucasus? Personally, I didn’t see anything there except chub and river trout. They talked about some kind of barbel, but it doesn’t bite on the pieces of iron. All.

Carp in those parts is exotic and is caught on pay-sites

talking about the fact that on paid sites you can easily drag a fish out of a pond) So he arrived, threw it, drank, and left with the fish

If they open a trout fishmonger in your area, will you stop by? That's it.

No, I'm not interested in that kind of thing. By the way, we have a lot of payers

I don’t go trout fishing at all. I only love carp fishing. And I always release the fish. Either they are paid people or they are freeloaders. Doesn't matter.

On the contrary, I don’t like such “lazy” fishing. And fishing with carp anglers and feeders is beyond my strength))) of all the people I know, of these fishing castes, only one doesn’t drink. And the rest - bring them, take them away, help feed them on the boat, the whole shore is lined with these fucking fishing rods, damn it. Spinning is our everything

First of all, I don’t drink. At all. Never. Secondly, there were 25-30 people on the pond besides me. And only I caught something more or less normal. Third, I started cooking the corn a week in advance. Fermentation is not a quick process. More than 20 kg of bait was spent on complementary feeding. And this pond is quite large. Three hundred meters wide and 600 meters long. This is not some kind of 50*50 puddle in which you can catch fish with a landing net. In general, as I understand it, you are all super fishermen here, mega aggressive, for some reason. So, in a word, I write about whatever I want. Good luck to you.

If you don't drink, sorry. But a payer is a payer and taking catches from them is not an honor

I can’t understand why I should ask someone what to write about? Everyone has a choice whether to read this or that post or not. I just shared my catch and good mood, and I wish you a good mood, maybe then don’t be rude to others.

How round are you?)

Listen, when you beat me on the highway for driving 90 km/h in the left lane, won’t you have a heart attack?

Why should I hit you? Don't confuse me with yourself. I did not express aggression towards you. And he didn’t move on to the national theme. But, judging by the comments, he’s not quite himself. And so, I say for the hundredth time. There is a rule that you cannot drive from the left if it is clear from the right. And period. I didn't come up with this. And whether someone likes it or not, you need to change lanes and let those who go faster pass.

Yes, I agree with you, you can’t drive on the left if the right is free. But why bother? Why put a person, possibly inexperienced, in an emergency situation and blind him?

I wrote it. I was wrong, I lost my temper. But the meaning of the comet was that you can’t drive in the left lane. And about the fact that some people really consider it humiliating to change lanes and give in. That's all. And they talked some nonsense here. Just in the video there was such a principled one.

Well, Idk. It’s really easier for me to pick up at speed, change lanes and overtake quickly than to get dusty and be indignant.

I started dusting after he blocked me with the truck. Only after that

Paid fishing is like a bad prostitute - you pay, but it also breaks.

That’s true, but for cap fishing we only have paid ones. The only natural reservoir is Bekan. But unfortunately, poachers took everything there.

You have to go either to Nikolaevskoye or Krmarovo, although in the latter they began to play with the water level. When they see that the fishing is normal, the water drops by 5-8 cm and that’s it, you can pack up.

Well, it seems like the pressure is dropping, that's why. This is a long-standing trick of dishonest owners of paid ponds. The first time I was surrounded by mosquitoes for two days. I have a bait boat. I naturally asked the owner of the pond for permission to use it. I found promising points. Fed. I brought three nozzles to each point. I fed him every hour. Naturally the bite started. And a normal bite. From 2 to 9 kg of fish. Two full cages. There are no catch restrictions. But I let it all go. I only took two fish. Friends asked. I can’t even raise my hand to eat them. But when I arrived again, after five hours the bite stopped completely on the pond. From the word absolutely. And there the piers were made, I looked closely at the pipes, and the water level dropped by 5-6 cm. So these are the kind of dishonest people. It's a shame. I don't travel that often. And it came to nothing.

Paid fishing is like a bad prostitute - you pay, but it also breaks.

That’s true, but for cap fishing we only have paid ones. The only natural reservoir is Bekan. But unfortunately, poachers took everything there.

My record is 9 kopecks. I caught several cupids in Zmeyka with this weight. And a pair of carp under 9 kg. Although there is a wild lake in Komarovo, last year the guy caught 18 kg of carp. He showed me the photo. It really was a wild boar. But I haven't had that much luck so far. And there is no time. Carp fishing is at least two days, if for large fish. And in a season, maximum two or three times I can go for that long

Fermented corn, is it a little sour or is there a recipe for making it? Share, if not a secret secret.

I'm on the river Upa I catch carp, bonduelle is in honor there.

There are many recipes. I cook it this way: first I soak the corn in water for a day, then I cook it in the same water for an hour and a half. The main thing is that the corn does not burst during cooking, then it is no longer suitable. I add different flavors while cooking. I make several types, just with sugar, with natural honey, with pataca and with hemp. After it’s cooked and cooled, I pour it into plastic buckets. I pour sunflower oil on top. A little bit so that the film turns out evenly. It prevents air from entering and does not prevent the release of gases that are formed during the fermentation process. It should stand like this for at least three days. Preferably five. And everything is ready! After fishing, the remaining corn can be packed into bags and frozen. It is not always possible to prepare for fishing in advance, and for a spontaneous trip you can use frozen corn. I put it on my hair accessories. And I definitely like to add it to complementary foods. That's all. What secrets could there be? Give it a try. If you understand something, write it down. NHNCH

Free fishing spots in the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania

Near Bekan there is a tributary of the same name to the famous Terek River, which flows throughout almost the entire territory of the Republic. This channel is very popular among fishermen, and there is not a lot of fish here, but the popularity of the river is most influenced by the accessibility of the river. Getting to this reservoir is very easy, regardless of whether you travel by public transport or your own.

This reservoir does not attract lovers of catching predatory fish, since there are no such inhabitants at all. But for adherents of float or bottom fishing, there is clearly entertainment in the local waters. In the catches of fishermen who can be found on the shores of this reservoir, you can often see carp, crucian carp, and also often come across silver carp and grass carp.

Not far from Nikolaevskaya flows a wonderful small river, on the banks of which you can often meet not only local, but also visiting fishermen with different gear. The situation in the reservoir with predatory fish is not very good, which is quite difficult to say about peaceful inhabitants. In the river, despite its small size, you can find trophy fish.

Among the frequent trophies of fishermen who prefer to fish with float or feeder gear, you can see silver carp, grass carp, carp or carp, as well as crucian carp. It’s worth preparing in advance if you plan to go fishing in this body of water, since the likelihood of catching quite large fish there is very high, so you need to choose the appropriate gear.

Paid fishing and fishing tours in North Ossetia-Alania

The area of the picturesque republic of the North Caucasus Federal District is 8000 km2. It is located between Kabardino-Balkaria, Chechnya, Ingushetia, Stavropol Territory, Georgia and South Ossetia on the northern slope of the Greater Caucasus. Lowlands with plains and mountains divided the territory of North Ossetia into two approximately equal parts: the flat north and the mountainous south. The highest point of the republic is the famous Mount Kazbek, not much inferior to Elbrus (5033 km). The Republic of North Ossetia-Alania is located at the latitude of countries such as France, Italy and Bulgaria. The climate is temperate continental. In addition to latitude, the climate of the republic is influenced by the Main Caucasus Ridge, which delays the entry of humid and warm Black Sea air masses into the territory of Alanya. In spring and summer, air masses from Central Asia invade the flat part of Ossetia. As a result, summers in the republic are hot: the average July temperature reaches 24° in the plains and 20° in the mountains. In the north of the republic, temperatures often reach 40 degrees. In mountainous areas, as you rise upward, the temperature drops in summer. But in winter it is warmer in mountainous areas than in the plains.

Tourism in North Ossetia-Alania

Half of the territory of the republic is mountains. Full-flowing and clean rivers descend from them, and in the gorges there are stunningly beautiful lakes. Fishing, recreation in the fresh air, mountain trails - all this can be offered to you at local tourist centers. What are mountains without skiing? There are several equipped trails in North Ossetia. Balneological clinics at mineral springs are also ready to receive vacationers. Tireless travelers can rent a car and go to the Archon Pass or Karmadon Gorge, visit the ancient village of Tsamad, see the rock fortress and Dzivgis cave.

What kind of fish is found in the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania

North Ossetia is a territory incredibly rich in various species of ichthyofauna. This is a real haven for fishermen, with many paid and free places for active recreation. Tourists like to catch trophy specimens on the main artery of Ossetia - the Terek River. More tributaries flow out of the river, where trout and carp are excellently caught. It is impossible to list all the species of ichthyofauna that live in North Ossetia, the list is so large. Here is a list of the most common fish:

Reservoirs of North Ossetia-Alania

The main water artery of the republic is the Terek River, although the Terek flows through the territory of North Ossetia only for 110 km. The Terek has a large number of tributaries: the largest of them are Urukh, Ardon, Kambileevka, Gizeldon, Ursdon. Depending on geography, Ossetian rivers can be divided into mountain and foothill rivers. The mountainous ones include the Terek, Ardon with its tributaries, and Urukh. The sources of these rivers are located on glacier-covered mountain peaks and have corresponding glacial feeding. The most significant glaciers of the republic are Karaugomsky (35 km2), Maili (22 km2) and Tseysky (18 km2). Rivers such as the Sunzha or Kambileevka are called foothill rivers, which have a mixed supply of snow, rain and groundwater. In spring, these rivers experience high water; in winter, like mountain rivers, they do not freeze, although their flow is not as stormy as that of mountain rivers.

Map of fishing spots

Not far from the village of Brut there is a small river, near which a large number of fishermen constantly gather. Moreover, due to the fact that the reservoir is located near large settlements, here you can meet not only local, but also visiting fishermen. This is due to the fact that it is not difficult to drive up to the reservoir and can be done using any vehicle.

Like most other reservoirs of the republic, there are no predatory fish in this river, but large specimens of carp, crucian carp, silver carp and grass carp are very often found. Locals catch this fish using all suitable gear, which can be not only a float rod, but also a feeder rod with the appropriate equipment.

But you should understand that these are not all the places where local anglers fish. And among the underwater inhabitants of reservoirs you can find no less interesting species: rare trout, fairly large bream, very rare kutum fish, as well as the famous barbel and podust.
