Where to go fishing in Kherson region?

The best place for fishing in the Kherson region is the lower part of the Dnieper. Perhaps in Ukraine there is no place for a richer fish. Here they catch a pike, carp, crucian carp, catfish, all kinds of roach, bream, zander and zander. On numerous islands there is a mass of cozy recreation centers, which offer their services not only to fishermen.

Also in the Kherson region you can learn the pleasure of sea fishing. It is especially recommended to catch Dzharylgach and in the waters of the mouth of the Dnieper-Bug near the peninsula.

For lovers of carp fishing in the region there are more than 1000 ponds and lakes for every taste and purse. Particularly known among fishermen is a pond in the village of Tomina-Balka.

In the region there are salt ponds, so go fishing and take care of a special line, hooks, fishing rods and drums. Currently, local fishermen usually use fishing rods, feeders and spinners for fishing.

Attention! Fishing in the Kherson region is regulated by the laws and regulations of Ukraine. All fishermen should remember that in the spring, during the ban of the spawning, you can fish in the river only in the permitted places. A list of these places can be found on the website in the «REGULATIONS» section, and also check the dates indicated by me below. I must warn you about the following:

the time of the ban during the spawning in the Kherson region from April 1 to June 30;
it is prohibited to catch crayfish during spawning and from August 20 to September 30;
the ban on fishing in winter pits begins on November 1, the list of places is available by reference;

Do good …

And throw it into the water … I want to draw your attention to the fact that now the principle of «Catch – release» is very popular in Ukraine. This is promoted by the coolest sportsmen, bloggers and TV presenters. What’s the point of this? It’s very simple: fishing is a pleasure, and every participant of the process must get his portion. And the fish, including 🙂 So do not hesitate to let go of the fish.

I do not urge you to completely abandon the use of the fish that you caught. No! Fish soup and fried crucian, it’s very cool! I just encourage the fishermen to treat the fish with reverence.

And do not forget the catch quota! During the day you can get no more than 3 kg from the public pond. That’s enough!
