Fishing in the Kaluga region 2021 Good evening! Dear friends, I would like to talk with you on the topic: fishing in the Kaluga region 2019, what types of fish can be found in numerous reservoirs, an overview of places for paid and free fishing. I really like to travel and I always take with me the necessary fishing gear. And this time the travel route was in the Kaluga region. The territory mainly contains artificial ponds, but there are also natural reservoirs containing a sufficient amount of fish.
After talking with local residents, I became interested in where they like to fish. Now I share this knowledge with you. So, if you are going on vacation to this wonderful corner of Russia, then I will tell you about places where you can see beautiful landscapes and take a break from the bustle of the city, and the features of fishing in the Kaluga region 2018.
Fishing spots and fishing techniques in the area
On the border with the Moscow region is the Kaluga region. Its reservoirs attract countless fishing enthusiasts from the capital, because for the most part they are clean and fishy. And the picturesque nature contributes to a good rest, and the journey is not too far - a little more than two hours from the Moscow Ring Road.
Water resources
The Kaluga region is not very rich in water: of course, it is not a desert - there are rivers, ponds, and lakes - but there are few of them in comparison with other regions. There are hundreds of hectares of wetlands in the west, but overall they occupy a small percentage of the area.
The region cannot boast of natural lakes; there are few of them here, but there are many reservoirs - small and large artificial ponds, including those specially designed for paid fishing.
In the mirror of numbers - the very best:
- Bezdon is the deepest lake of natural (glacial) origin, the maximum mark is around 40 meters, the water is transparent to a level of 8-10 meters.
Fishing is paid, in summer it is better to have a boat with you so as not to break through the reeds to the water, but recently this small body of water (only a kilometer by 800 meters) has been intensively improved.Here you can catch tench, grass carp, pike, perch, carp, bream, crucian carp, rudd, and catfish. Thanks to the springs gushing at the bottom and the oxygen content, the fish has an excellent taste.
- Zhelokhovskoe, or Tish, is the largest oxbow lake, its length exceeds 4 km, the water mirror occupies 32 hectares of area. Several smaller oxbow lakes adjoin it. If you fish from the shore, perch, carp, crucian carp, as well as the toothy predator – pike, bite well. Clean air and excellent ecological conditions attract many people here, including fishermen. At the same time, the catches are not very impressive: there are a lot of fish, but mostly small specimens are caught.
The fishiest artificial ponds include:
- Lompad, or Lyudinovo Reservoir - beautiful landscapes and clean water, these are the two main characteristic features of this natural monument.
The third is the wealth of the underwater world. The jigs are used for bream and bream, which usually make up at least half of each catch. There are also ruffs, carps, perches, and pikes are found only small and infrequently - in total there are 17 species of fish. - Brynskoye - this reservoir is a feeding pond where fish released into it gain weight. For fishing enthusiasts, carp are of greatest interest - with float tackle you can easily catch the 10 kg required by the package; perch, small-sized grass carp, roach, ruffe, and crucian carp are also easily caught. As a rule, larger specimens are caught when fishing from a boat;
- The Milyatinskoe reservoir covers an area of over 380 hectares, which makes it one of the largest reservoirs in the region. The average depth is about two meters. Fishing on it is paid, the most interesting is the predator, which is caught on spinners, wobblers, under the shore, from a boat - with or without a motor. A popular fishing method is trolling, which is used to catch pike – usually about a kilogram, but you can catch larger beauties; jigs can catch perches larger than your palm. There are also crucian carp, rudd and roach, and tench is found in small quantities. Since there are no industrial enterprises nearby, the fish is not contaminated with toxins and heavy metals, it can be safely sent to the pot and the fire - the fish soup will be excellent.
The most “sweet” thing remains for a snack – these are the rivers. Fishing in the river is a lot of pleasure from searching and catching stubbornly resisting predators, it is excitement and fear of losing a trophy when it seems that the spinning rod will break and the strength of the fishing line will not be enough to pull out the monster living in the water.
And this is delicious and environmentally friendly meat - the river banks are mostly covered with forests, and such a mass of industrial waste is not dumped into the water as in other regions.
There are also peaceful fish in the rivers; floaters hunt for them. The most successful and rich fishing is possible precisely in water streams that leisurely run through flat terrain - this is the type of terrain that predominates in the region. In the underwater world you can most often find pike and bream, and in general the fish stocks are large.
So, fishing on the largest rivers of the Kaluga region:
- The Oka River with its tributaries forms the basis of the region’s water system; the length of its channel within the region is approximately 180 km. Fishing here is successful both in winter and summer. Milk-breeders do not consider blue bream and silver bream to be fish. Burbot - that's the highest happiness - comes across rarely. You can try your luck with pike perch. Pike go great on wobblers - it’s simply a haven for spinning anglers. The perch takes the jig well, sometimes the bersh slips through, and the ruff is often caught. It is also interesting to catch chubs, among which there are real heavyweights on the Oka River. The catfish are mostly young, up to five kilograms; in any case, record catches have not been recorded for a long time. In total, about 30 species of fish live in the waters of the Oka.
But recently, there have been significantly fewer valuable species than in previous years, due to severe fishing pressure, although the environs of Kaluga are still considered places rich in fish.
- The Zhizdra River is a tributary of the Oka. The predator is caught here on a donkey with live bait, on a girder, or with a spinning rod. Turntables, spoons, wobblers are the best baits for pike. When hunting for a toothy predator, you encounter perch of different sizes. Asp are successfully caught, and among the qualifying fish we can also name catfish - here, more likely, catfish - over 10 kg, maybe there are fish, but they sleep in their holes and are not shown to fishermen. On the feeder there are constant bites of silver bream, blue bream, and roach. Belle regularly falls on the float. Especially a lot of bleak. A welcome guest - bream - often comes to the bottom tackle;
- Ugra River - ten kilometers above the city of Kaluga, this river flows into the Oka. Zherlitsy and spinning rods give 100% results for pike in these waters. Schools of chub can be magnificent - these go well for donk. There is a good bite of roach, silver bream, and white bream; catfish and pike perch are found mainly in the lower reaches. Of course, there is also the ubiquitous perch, as well as asp, tench is less common, and also burbot.
We have not listed all water bodies favorable for fishing. There are many places in this region where fisherman can find success. And you can choose fishing methods - as they say, to suit every taste. It’s very nice that you can come for a couple of days – in any season – in order to devote yourself entirely to what you love.
The only negative that can be noted is very serious. The fact is that in search of peace and tranquility, both local residents and guests from other regions come to the reservoirs of the Kaluga region.
But the majority of visitors are still Muscovites - it is for them that the owners of paid ponds keep the prices in Moscow, which somewhat reduces the attractiveness of the region.
What kind of fish is found in the Kaluga region
The reservoirs of Kaluga often delight fishermen with fish, but they won’t be able to catch a rare specimen. Due to the location of the region, the species composition of commercial fish predominates. But catching trophy specimens is not uncommon.
Most often local fishermen catch:

- crucian carp;
- Ruff;
- Bream;
- Carp;
- Rudd;
- Burbot;
- Line;
- Sturgeon;
- Perch;
- Roach;
- Sturgeon;
- Pike perch;
- Soma;

As you can see, there is fish in local reservoirs, and it is quite diverse. The only thing I would like to draw attention to is the ban on sturgeon fishing. The fish is rare and catching it is prohibited by law, so if you have one on your hook, you must immediately release it back into the reservoir.
Vacationers from Moscow and the Moscow region often come to the Kaluga region, and the bulk of visitors are fishermen. A good catch is guaranteed on the Oka and Desna, as well as on their tributaries - here you can catch ide, bream, pike, pike perch, chub, rudd, perch, roach, ruffe and burbot.
This fish can also be caught on floodplain lakes and in river valleys, for example, in the longest lake in the region - Zhelokhovsky - an excellent catch is guaranteed.
Fishermen also enjoy going to Gorskoe and Polyanskoe lakes and to the island. Quiet, in which there is a lot of bream, pike, carp, rudd, roach, ruff and perch. Among artificial reservoirs, Lake Lompad offers good fishing. Source: ribalim.com; ruspoll.ru"

The village of Velikovskoye is located on the shore of a large bay of the Volga River. The fishing area is quite extensive; fishing is possible in many ways. In the bay the bottom is hard, in the coastal zone there are water lilies and other aquatic vegetation. Depths do not exceed 5-6 meters, there is no current. In the Volga itself there is a medium-fast current typical for these places, depths reach 15 meters. The bottom is sandy and clayey, with snags found in some areas. The bottom topography in the Velikovsky area is heterogeneous - there are holes, deep drops, rifts, edges, etc.

The bay is home to large numbers of roach, perch, rudd, silver bream and pike. There are tench and crucian carp. On the riverbed, in addition to the listed species, there are pike perch, bersh, catfish, burbot, bream, bluegill, carp, ide and chub.
You can fish in the Velikovsky area throughout the year. In the summer months they fish with a float rod, feeder tackle, twitching spinning rod, ultralight and microjig. Closer to autumn, spinning anglers come here to fish with jigs on the Volga itself; in the side you can meet spinners or microjiggits. In winter, people come here to fish with jigs, spoons, girders, balls, etc.
In open water, twitching pike fishing is very interesting. Since the bay connects with the Volga throughout the year, pike are constantly present here and of very impressive size. You can use a variety of wobblers, but the lures from Japanese manufacturers Jackall, LuckyCraft, Megabazz, Zipbaits and Yo-Zuri have proven themselves to be the most effective here.
There are also large roach and rudd in the bay, which you have to look for. Having found a suitable fishing spot, you should feed it. The best baits were maggot, steamed wheat and worm. In winter, large roach are caught using reelless gear. The jigs used are nymphs, dracenas and devils.
In winter, you can find a lot of tortoiseshells in the bay, and this is not surprising. Pike can be found here on the forehead, so it’s worth checking both the coastal zone and the pits with tubercles. Live bait can be caught right on the pond using a jig.

Paid fishing in the Kaluga region
Paid fishing often has an advantage over free fishing. This is the number of fish caught and its weight. Often people go to paid reservoirs to catch trophy specimens whose weight reaches more than 20 kg. In the Kaluga region there are a large number of paid lakes where you can catch excellent fish.
Many people recommend buying bite activators and special bait for such lakes, but experienced fishermen reject this and recommend taking with them natural bait made from ground worms with the addition of bloodworms.
For different reservoirs, different baits are used, depending on the depth, type of reservoir, flow speed, etc. For carp, they mainly use corn-based bait with the addition of breadcrumbs. If desired, you can add pieces of rye bread, flour, crushed oatmeal cookies.

Fishing without norm
In the Kaluga region there are reservoirs and farms where it is allowed to export fish without the norm. This is Lake Bryn, Kurakino. These lakes are quite large and it is recommended to stock up on gear and fishing rods, as some of these lakes have snags.
It would also be a good idea to take a boat to increase your catch. Don't forget to take plenty of bait and all the items necessary for fishing, because... On many of these lakes there is no store nearby that sells fishing equipment.
On lakes where fishing is limited, the population is mainly carp, pike, grass carp, and less commonly crucian carp.
For carp, corn is best, but some also recommend using peas, boiled potatoes or dough. It also bites well on worms and larvae; if you wish, you can try using shells and bark beetles. Oscillating spoons and spinners, as well as edible rubber and wobblers, are suitable for pike.
Spinner is the most common and versatile bait for catching pike. The spinner is less common, but also very effective. Edible rubber also attracts pike and hardly catches on the bottom. For medium-sized pike, start with 2 inches.
A wobbler is an imitation of a fish and is also very effective. Pike bite excellently on the remains of fish. For crucian carp, as well as for carp, worms, bloodworms, jigs, maggots, and grasshoppers are suitable.
From vegetable peas, millet, semolina with breadcrumbs and cookies, wheat corn, semolina. Lures made from pea leaves, cabbage, and corn are suitable for grass carp. Sometimes young cucumbers are used. Animals: worms, grasshoppers, bloodworms. Source: "klevoklev.com"

Fishing at the Mezhura fish farm
Every person, when going fishing, wants to catch as many fish as possible. One of the most stocked reservoirs in the middle zone is the Mezhura system of paid ponds. This system is located a little more than a hundred kilometers from the ring road.
It is located between the villages of Seredinskoye and Korostelevo - this is in the Borovsky district of the Kaluga region. Fish can be caught here all year round - the owners have created all the necessary conditions for this.
This fishery has been operating for the past 15 years.
Almost all varieties of river, pond and lake fish characteristic of this area are found here:
- crucian carp;
- Carp;
- Trout;
- White amur;
- Roach;
- Bream;
- Pike;
- Perch and many others.
The average weight of carp fish is about one and a half kilograms, but if desired, you can catch an individual whose weight will reach 10 kg. There are not too many trout in the reservoir, but they exist. Grass carp are bred artificially in ponds - they are released there when they are old enough.
The mass of the launched individuals is at least 4 kg.
Fans of spinning fishing will prefer hunting for pike and perch. If you approach the matter correctly and select the necessary bait, then there is a good chance of catching a trophy specimen weighing over 12 kg.
Services
From the very beginning, the creators of this fishery positioned the recreation center as closest to the real conditions of wild fishing. However, despite this, there are a number of tourist houses on the territory. Each of them is designed for two people. They can be removed for a small surcharge.
If the fisherman does not have his own boat, then you can rent one here. There are only rowing boats that can be used for both fishing and short boat trips.
Beginner fishermen are encouraged to use the services of an instructor who will show how to find a fish site and explain the basic rules for choosing bait and casting it. On the banks of the pond system there are a large number of places intended for pitching tents. At the same time, you can drive directly to the shore by car - the entire coastline of the ponds is flat with very convenient access to the water.
Prices
It’s worth mentioning right away that there are no restrictions on the number and weight of fish caught - this immediately gives a significant advantage to this recreation center compared to others, where you have to pay a decent price for the fish caught. One day of fishing will cost one adult one thousand rubles.
Women and children under 16 years of age are admitted absolutely free, as long as each of them has no more than one fishing rod. In addition, the owners of Mezhura allow fishermen to release caught fish back into the reservoir, although in most paid fishing spots such an action is strictly prohibited.
The ponds have bridges specially equipped for fishing. People who have paid for a trip can fish from them absolutely free. If vacationers are going to set up a tent, then they will not have to pay additional funds.
When moving into houses, you will need to pay - renting one double house will cost 2 thousand rubles per day. However, it is worth noting that in the houses, besides electricity, there are no other amenities, so people who are not accustomed to such conditions are unlikely to be comfortable there. As mentioned above, there is no standard for the amount of fish caught in these reservoirs. This attracts a large number of people who love and know how to fish to the shores of the ponds.
Mezhura – fishing reports
To decide on the choice of fishing gear, I suggest reading the reviews:
- It took me quite a long time to choose which paid pond to go to, since this was my first trip like this – I’m more used to fishing on free reservoirs. I read a large number of fishing forums, looked at photo reports and decided to stop at Mezhura. During the entire trip there was only one unpleasant moment - after leaving the ring road, I can’t even call the surface asphalt. Otherwise, everything was just great: my friends and I arrived at the pond early in the morning - it was about six o’clock. Despite such an early hour, almost all the banks were filled with people.
With great difficulty we found three free bridges and settled down there.
The first two casts immediately yielded results - I caught it with a worm, and managed to pull out two crucian carp, each weighing about half a kilogram. After that, he changed tactics, planted corn, fed the place and began to wait. The wait was prolonged - there were no serious bites for three whole hours, but it was noticeable that quite a large fish was walking nearby. Finally, I was lucky - I pecked at a fairly large specimen. As it later turned out, it was grass carp weighing about 4 kg. After this there were two more similar bites, but both times the fish fell off the hook. Alexander, Moscow, float rod.
- This spring I managed to visit Mezhura twice – both times turned out to be extremely successful.
He returned with a rich catch. Of course, it was impossible to do without disadvantages. The only negative side was the road, which is practically non-existent directly to the fish farm. Instead of asphalt there are continuous potholes and pits on which it is impossible to reach a speed of more than 40 km/h. We decided not to go to the first small pond, since there were a lot of people there. We went to a larger pond. It was already much freer here, but still quite crowded. We decided to rent a boat and fish in the middle of the pond. We immediately paid the guard for fishing and for the boat. I had donks and wobblers with feeders with me. The catch turned out to be decent - between the three of us we caught eight pikes, three perches and about ten to twelve bream. The total weight of the catch was about 20 kg. Vladimir, Kaluga, feeder, donka and wobbler. - Great place - I go there several times a year. I usually travel alone. Recently I have become addicted to feeder fishing. On one of the last trips we managed to pull out a grass carp weighing 8 kg. The fish is strong and very stubborn – I had to fight with it for about an hour. I couldn’t have done it alone: a fisherman fishing nearby helped me. The matter did not end with this specimen, and until the evening I was lucky enough to pull out four more mirror carp weighing from one to three kilograms. This year I plan to go there in winter. Alexey, Mytishchi, feeder.
- As a novice fisherman, I had never fed fish, but on this trip to Mezhura I decided to prepare a homemade composition and acquired a feeder. It’s worth saying that on my other visits here the bites were much less frequent. This time I caught three and sometimes four fish every hour.
It is worth noting that direct access to the ponds is quite convenient - there are well-trodden dirt roads and even one asphalted one.The fishery staff is very polite and helpful. There is a lot of space, so no one stopped me from fishing, although I was fishing from an equipped bridge. Vladislav, Shatura, donka.

Unfortunately, this fishery does not have its own website on the Internet, but it is well advertised on the forums of fishermen who regularly go there to catch their catch. The telephone numbers where you can reserve a place on the pond are as follows: +7-084-383-01-29; +7-910-910-87-01.
In principle, you don’t have to make a reservation, since the size of the pond system allows you to accommodate a large number of people on the banks - there are free places even in the summer months.
To get to the Mezhura fishery or Burevestnik LLC from Moscow, you need to get out of the ring road onto the Kievskoye Highway and get to the point where there is a fork in the roads leading to the villages of Korostylevoe and Seredinskoye. Source: “klevoklev.com“
