Huchen fishing on Drina River in 2012

Danube Salmon from Drina River, July 2011

Danube Salmon from the "Old man's pool" - January 2011

Enjoy on Drina River an absolute world-class Huchen fishing adventure!  Waters with absolutely unique biological structure- arising thereby an abundant food supply. The catch of the more than 60 pounds heavy Huchen is possible and fishes between 10 and 30 pounds can be hooked daily!

At the Drina River everything is different, the river is huge, just so are the creatures that drive along up to the 1,000 meters long pool. Some are up to 20 feet deep and covered by channel-like grooves. On my last visit, we were able to observe a number of Danube salmon (4) simultaneously on the raid. With the all-day water level change of the water it is very important to have a local guide with you. Mladjo, the undisputed Danube-salmon-king of this area, can not be paid with money, since you can get the most important information first hand.
In plain language, the fishing opportunities increase by a multiple. Occasionally, extremely large brown trout go as a by-catch on the hook. I could marvel at pictures of fish up to 13 kilograms.
Fishing tackle should be no compromise. Rods with a length of 2.70 to 3.00 meters and a casting weight between 100-180g depending on the manufacturer are the first choice.
The reels should roll on big fish, as known from carp and catfish fishing. With a length of at least 200 yards and braid lines of 60lb + class complete the picture eventually.
The bait must be cast at least 60-100 meters around to get at good points. Therefore, it is suggested to work with silicon lure (up to 80g) to provide the necessary throw.
Whoever casts his bait here- is in the valley of giants. The very first bite of a fish can be over 25 to 35 kilograms. This is of course not the rule. But countless fish caught 15 to 30 kilograms underline this absolutely unique potential of the Drina River.
