Features of fishing in winter in the Perm region
Features of weather conditions
The Perm region is characterized by harsh winter conditions, when severe frosts set in. In addition, there are heavy snowfalls with equally strong winds. In this regard, when going fishing, it is a good idea to check the weather forecast. If weather conditions are favorable for departure, then you can safely go to the reservoir. If frost, snowfall and wind are expected, then it is better to postpone fishing. This whole weather cocktail will not allow you to fish effectively, much less relax. After all, fishing is, first of all, relaxation, and then fishing. Although many fishermen still go after the fish.
On days when there are severe frosts, you should not count on productive fishing. The fact is that during this period the fish move to the depths, where they wait out the most terrible cold weather. Despite this, you can successfully catch crucian carp or bream. But for this you will have to dress very warmly and provide yourself with a hot lunch and tea.
Where to fish in winter?
In the Perm region, fishermen mainly go to the Kamskaya hydroelectric station to buy fish. Some anglers prefer to do their favorite activity on weekends, while others prefer weekdays. Therefore, some fishermen think that they will be able to catch more fish.
In addition to hydroelectric power stations, in the Perm region there are several paid reservoirs, which are characterized by the fact that here you can not only fish, but also relax with the whole family. This is true in cold, frosty winter conditions, when it is possible to stay in a heated house. And in the gazebo you can spend time having a barbecue or taste the fish that you have just caught in the pond. Moreover, you can stay here by arriving by your own transport or by public transport.
Winter fishing for certain types of fish
This article will tell you where and on what body of water this or that fish is caught. After all, some fishermen deliberately go after a specific type of fish.
Where to catch perch
Catching perch in winter in the Perm region begins from the moment ice appears on the reservoirs. Fishing ends as soon as the ice melts. Some anglers claim that perch is most effectively caught in the following bodies of water:
- This is the place where the Kama and Kosva converge. It is located 120 km from the city of Perm and is a section of the Kama Reservoir, which is located slightly above the settlement of Nizhny Lukh. This place is considered one of the most popular among winter fishing enthusiasts. Fishing here is always productive throughout the winter.
- An equally catchable place is a site located on the Kama River, between the Bobrovo recreation center and the village of Shemeti.
- A section of the Obva River, which is located between the settlements of Komarikha and Sludk.
Where is bream caught?
Bream in the Perm region bite all winter, but they bite most actively in early March and throughout the spring. The most catchable points are considered to be fed points.
Most local fishermen go for bream within the village of Trinity. It begins to be caught in January and continues to bite until March. During this period, none of the fishermen is left without a catch. With the arrival of spring, bream begins to actively bite in all reservoirs.
Where to catch pike perch
With the appearance of ice on reservoirs, winter hunting for pike perch begins. He begins to actively take bait with the appearance of ice and continues to actively peck until the end of December. With the advent of a thick ball of snow, it becomes more and more difficult to find the resting places of these fish. Since you have to constantly move around a body of water, a thick ball of loose snow poses a serious obstacle if there is no special transport or skis.
You can catch pike perch:
- On a section of the Kama River, within the villages of Chastye and Okhansk, as well as slightly downstream.
- Within the Chusovsky water intake.
To catch pike perch in winter, you will have to work hard to find its place of residence. With the arrival of spring, pike perch begin to become more active as they begin to chase schools of bream. This is also due to the fact that the amount of water in rivers and other bodies of water begins to decrease.
Where to catch roach
The roach has a second name - it is a roach, and it is found almost everywhere, both in summer and winter. At the same time, the most catchable places differ, located in sections of various rivers and lakes.
You can catch a track in winter:
- On the Kama River, within Ust-Nytva.
- On the Obva River, near the settlements of Oktyabrsky and Poser.
- On a section of the Kama River, next to the recreation centers “Svyazist” and “Bobrovo”, as well as near the village of Shemeti.
- In the Polazna Bay of the Kama River.
- On the Chernaya River.
Best fishing spots
Some people think that in order to bring home the desired trophy, you must go to the shores of a paid reservoir or a special fishing base. This statement is true if the angler does not know cool free places.
On the other hand, on a paid base, a fisherman does not have to worry about accommodation or food. He can get almost any equipment for rent. What is especially attractive is that on paid reservoirs they try to maintain the fish population at the proper level and there is a huntsman who will show you the most fishing place.
Wild fishing also has its fans. And not only because in this way a significant amount of money is saved. The main thing is romance. Tent, fire, steaming fish soup in a cauldron.
We will look into the best paid and free places in the Perm region further.
Free fishing spots
There are simply countless places like this in Perm and the region. Let's make a small list based on the largest number of rave reviews:
- Kama River. Here you need to know the exact place where to sit down with the fishing rod. If you want to catch bream, you need to get to Dobryanka and climb 25 kilometers higher. The bite is excellent. The smallest specimen weighs 0.8 kilograms. Another wonderful place is the village of Stashkovo. Here local fishermen boast of excellent trophies of perch, pike perch and pike perch. Sometimes freshwater catfish are found.
- A river with an entertaining name “Grandma”. Grayling and pike can be found here. Dace and chub bite very often.
- Vasilyevka River. Bream and roach are found here. It is better to fish from morning to noon. Then the bite temporarily stops.
- River Syuzva. There is a good catch here, but all types of fish are small in size. Usually crucian carp, silver bream and roach bite. No special gear or bait is needed. A simple earthworm or maggot is enough. And you can return with a good catch.
- A tributary of the Kama River is the Chusovaya River. If you want to catch a decent catch of roach or bream, or maybe both, you should go to the shore from the Palnikov side. Here, experienced fishermen use one trick - special flavors for fish. As a result, roaches weighing up to 600 grams are caught. You won't be bored. As soon as the cast occurs, the bite begins.
- Vishera River. It is very interesting in that it can be clearly divided into three parts - lower, intermountain (middle) and mountain. Each segment has its own fish. Here you can catch taimen. The fisherman can boast of his catch only by taking a photo, after which the fish must be released into the water. Taimen is listed in the Red Book, so its catching is prohibited.
Fishing bases in the Kama region
If you plan to go fishing in winter with an overnight stay and more than one, with your family, then you cannot do without comfortable conditions, considering how severe winter can be in the Kama region. The best option is to stay at a recreation center, since there are all the conditions to spend the night, relax and warm up.
In such conditions, it’s not at all scary to leave the rest of the family and go fishing. While the fish is being caught, family members can have a great time in warmth and comfort.

Where to go fishing: places where fish bite in Perm and the Perm region
For the convenience of Perm residents, the editors of Pro City have prepared a list of places where a good catch awaits you. We also wrote which fish you will find more often in a particular area.
Fishing in the summer is a great way to relax in nature and bring home fresh fish. More than 40 medium-sized rivers and about 29,000 smaller rivers stretch throughout the Perm region. Each of them contains fish of different types and sizes.
“Pro City” has prepared a list of places in the Perm region where you should go fishing. It was compiled from the words of fishermen who more than once returned from there with a rich catch.
1. Kama
The Kama is the most popular river for fishermen, where the fish bite most often. However, fish are not caught in all places.
To get to the fishing spot, you need to drive 25 kilometers above Dobryanka. The river there is rich in bream. This was reported by fisherman Alexander Assanov, who spoke about one of his fishing trips in this place.
Complementary foods - as always, homemade with the addition of various tasty ingredients. As a result, I caught about 30 kg of good white bream (800-1200 grams). There were practically no small items. Fishing was a success.
And in the village of Stashkovo on the Kama there are a lot of pike perches, perches, and sorogs. If you're lucky, you can catch a catfish.
2. Grandma
The Babka River flows in the Kungur and Perm regions. Tiny fry are often found along the banks of the river, and nearby you can catch bleak, grayling, and pike.
Fisherman Ilya Pichugov told what catch he left Babka with.
We finished fishing at 23:00 and went home with a positive mood! A total of 4 species of fish were caught! Chub, pike, dace, perch!

3. Chusovaya
The Chusovaya River is the second longest after the Kama. Bream and roach are the most common catch on this river, especially from the Palnikov side.
Stanislav Zheltov told on social networks how he fished in this place.
He purposefully worked with animals and aromas (flavors for fishing). The fish stood tightly. Aromas intensely and bloodworms kept the fish in abundance. The roach is well-fed and lively Chusvinsky underbreeding 300-600 grams. The bite occurred within 1.5 minutes after casting.
4. Syuzva
On this river the fish bite very well, but small things are often caught. You can mainly catch roach, silver bream and crucian carp.
Vladimir Kosenkov wrote in the “Fishing in the Perm Region” group about his catch on Syuzva.
The semolina worked for small white bream and silver bream, the worm for crucian carp, which periodically required either maggots or only maggots to be planted (the white-red-white combination worked well).
5. Vishera
The Vishera River, which flows in Krasnovishersk, is also good for fishing. Grayling, taimen, bleak, and pike are found here. Taimen is listed in the Red Book, so it is better to release such a catch back into the river.

6. Gaiva
Below the mouth of the Gaiva River you can catch bream, bleak, roach, perch, ruffe, chub, and burbot.
Alexander Lyangasov shared his catch and impressions on social networks.
Perch 1050 grams - I was stunned...
7. Obva
The Obva River, which flows in the Ilyinsky district, is also actively visited by fishermen. Above the village of Poser, pike, pike-perch and perch are biting well in the morning.
Irina Alikina shared her impressions on social networks.
In the morning there is fog, eight degrees, no draft, no wind. The fish pecked until 8 o'clock, then silence. It only bites on a jig (rod - spinning rod). The depth is about six meters.
8. Iren
In the Orda region on the Iren River near the village of Shchelkanka there are pike, perch, chub, and pike perch. However, it is best to fish from boats, since the rifts, where there is much more fish, are inaccessible from the shore.
9. Vasilyevka
On the Vasilievka River in the small river microdistrict, bream and roach bite well during the day and in the morning. However, at night the fish sleeps. Typically the catch on this river consists of underbreeds.
Fisherman Artem Evdokimov wrote in the Perm Feeder Club group about his catch.
The trophy bream did not show itself; mostly the bream bit about 300 grams each. And when the sun fully rose, small roach began to slip between the breams. I finished fishing around noon. Result: 6,400 grams, the largest fish at 700 grams.
10. Mulyanka
But where you definitely shouldn’t go is to the Mulyanka River. According to experienced fishermen, there is absolutely no bite there.
In the Perm region there are also paid reservoirs where you can relax with your family and go fishing.
- Okhansky district: pond in the village of Andreevka and the village of Belyaevka. Carp and crucian carp live here.
- Karagay district: village of Karpovka. You can catch carp, crucian carp, sorog, and perch. The pond in the village of Kolupaevo is home to crucian carp and crucian carp.
Previously, we published a photo report from the Linden Mountain ecological trail.

Recommendations from experienced anglers regarding fishing in winter
What to take for winter fishing. Advice from experienced people.
- All fishing gear is prepared for fishing in advance. At the same time, there must be a sufficient number of spinners and jigs.
- The main attention should be paid to the quality of clothing. The Perm region is a harsh region, especially in winter, and does not forgive shortcomings. Clothes must be breathable to avoid sweating, otherwise you may immediately freeze.
- During the fishing process, it is necessary to do five minutes of physical exercise to warm up and warm up. Alternatively, you can drill another hole, or even two. At the same time, you need to immediately take care that the holes do not freeze.
- You should never stay near one hole for more than 10 minutes. If there are no bites during this time, then it’s time to move on to the next hole.
Tips from the Ministry of Emergency Situations: rules of behavior on ice
- You should not go out on the ice if its thickness is less than 7 cm.
- One should take into account such a factor as the presence of a current: there is a strong current at the Kamskaya hydroelectric station.
- Be careful at river mouths where two currents meet.
- Before you start drilling a hole, you should make sure that there is no current and that there are no algae.
- It is not recommended to come close to the edge of the ice, especially where a hole has formed.
- Under no circumstances is it recommended to drive onto the ice by car or other equipment - this is deadly.
- When driving out on ice on a snowmobile, you should make sure that the ice is thick enough.
- You cannot go out on the ice after sunset or after heavy snowfall.
- You should always remember that when the temperature is set to zero, after several days the ice strength may decrease by 25%.
- It is dangerous to go out on loose ice when the temperature is above zero.
If you fall through the ice, what should you do?
- The most important thing is not to panic, but to try to get out of the water as quickly as possible so that the body does not get hypothermia.
- To do this, you should lean your chest and stomach on the edge of the ice and try to put one and then the other leg on the ice.
- In this case, you need to get your bearings and begin to get out in the direction from which you were coming, but not in the opposite direction.
- To help a person who has fallen through the ice, you need to crawl to this place and throw him something, like a rope (you can have a scarf, etc.).
- After you have managed to get out of the water, you should take off your wet clothes and drink hot tea. Under no circumstances should you drink alcohol.
- It is better to call an ambulance immediately.
- You should always remember that going out on ice that has not yet hardened is dangerous. You can either fall into the water or end up on a broken ice floe, which is no less dangerous.
- You should always take a means of communication with you so that if something happens, you can call 112.
The most important thing is to follow all safety measures. Ideally, an angler who goes out on the ice should have equipment that could reduce the risk of falling through the ice. Take, for example, an ordinary pick, which many fishermen use. When walking on ice, especially dangerous ice, for example, after a snowfall, you can use an ice pick to tap the ice ahead. If any gap or other surprise is discovered, it can be detected immediately. In addition, if you place the ice pick parallel to the ice, this will help you get out of the water and prevent you from falling through the ice.
Only in this way, thoughtfully, fishing in the Perm region can leave behind only pleasant memories.

Fishing on the Votkinsk Reservoir
The Votkinsk Reservoir is a refuge for those fishermen who are not averse to catching a roach with a fishing rod, and competing with a catfish that has landed on a hook. This reservoir will also delight you with solid bream.
Fishing can become especially unpredictable in deep places. At the bottom of the Votkinsk reservoir there is a mass of snags, because it was formed by flooding forest areas. Now the “forest” has become home to aquatic life, especially the predator.
It is important to remember that 12 species of Red Book fish live here, and there are also specimens whose catch is limited. But even without touching the forbidden “tails”, you can get a lot of pleasure from catching familiar fish.
For example, in the spring, after spawning, mass amateur catfish fishing begins in the reservoir. If you're lucky, you can pull out a giant weighing under 50 kilograms! In order not to waste time looking for a suitable place, you should go to Ochersky, Nozhovsky, Saigatsky or Nytvinsky Bay to find peaceful fish. But for a trophy predator, it is advisable to go to Zabegaevsky and Stepnovsky Bay.
The huge variety of reservoirs in the Perm region can baffle any fisherman who decides to personally get to know these lands. And if you choose an unfamiliar river or lake, there is always a risk associated with the lack of normal roads, and it is not a fact that you will return home with your catch. So take a closer look at those reservoirs that have been in demand among Perm fishermen for many years. And we just told you about them!
