Map of fishing spots in Adygea
Adygea delights tourists with the fabulous beauty of many unique natural attractions. This region is a paradise “Eldorado” for fans of extreme mountain, water and ecological tourism. The local paradises are also extremely magnificent for those fishermen who believe that only productive fishing can provide them with a long-awaited active holiday.

And this is not surprising and quite relevant, since in Adygea there are hundreds of lakes of glacial-karst, floodplain and other origins, as many large and small rivers, even more ponds, each of which is an excellent fishing base for those who want to excitedly hunt for predators and linen .

The Adyghe rivers are inhabited by pike and trout, roach and carp, pike perch and chub, silver carp and rudd, barbel and crucian carp, bream and perch.

There are more than a hundred lakes in Adygea. There are floodplain, tectonic, suffosion, glacial-karst and anthropogenic lakes. Lowland lakes often fluctuate in water level and sometimes even dry up. Most of the lakes are located within the boundaries of the Side and Main ranges of the Adygea mountains. In the north the number of lakes decreases. One of the large lakes is Psenodakh, a glacial-karst reservoir between the Pshekha-Su and Oshten massifs, at an altitude of 1940 meters. It has 9 sq. km. area.

A noticeable part of the Russian Caucasian State Nature Reserve is located precisely on the territory of the Republic of Adygea. There are reservoirs, lakes and places with rich ecology and developed fauna - including good places for fishing. Ecotourism is very developed here. The following freshwater fish species are common in Adygea: pike, roach, perch, crucian carp, bream, rudd, as well as chub and some other species.

A favorite spot for anglers in this region is the beautiful Belaya River, which is home to roach, barbel, pike perch, chub, gudgeon, trout and bream. It is worth saying that fishing in the upper reaches of this river is more successful than in the lowland parts. However, in the pits it is quite possible to catch large-sized pike perch and bream.

The Kurdzhips River, which is rich in rainbow trout, is no less attractive to anglers. In the lower and middle parts of this river there are chub and barbel, which can be caught using boiled sausage, crustaceans, worms, and processed cheese.

The territory of the Adygea Republic is small, but it has a sufficient number of reservoirs for successful fishing. It is worth noting that many ponds in Adygea are privately owned.

There is an abundance of fish in the reservoirs of the republic and fishing in Adygea is attractive not only to local residents, but also to numerous guests from other regions of Russia.

Excellent fishing awaits guests of Adygea on mountain rivers, natural lakes, and small artificial ponds specially adapted for fishing and regularly filled with young fish.

What is the difference? It turns out, not only in the various species of fish that inhabit the river and lake, but also in the special mode of life of a given body of water, knowledge of which is indispensable in real fishing. Fishing in the Republic of Adygea
Fishing on the rivers and lakes of Adygea will bring you a lot of pleasant surprises. In Adygea, lake fishing is most popular in such famous places as the Dubrava recreation center and Lake Zamanukha. The lake is a group of well-stocked lakes located approximately 25 km from Maykop (towards Belorechensk along the federal highway, to the village of Rodniki), and the second is an impressively sized lake fenced off from the Krasnodar reservoir by a dam (90 km from Maykop, in the direction of Belorechensk and Adygeisk, to the village of Pshikuykhabl). In these reservoirs, fishing enthusiasts will find pike perch and carp, bream and pike, silver carp and catfish, crucian carp, carp and perch.

It is best to fish in the flat waters of Adygea using a float rod, and in mountain rivers you can try to catch trout using a spinning rod. According to the advice of experienced fishermen, you should count on a successful bite of carp, carp and bream in the lakes before bad weather (in just a couple of hours), as well as during strong warm (south and west) winds. Pike-perch, pike and perch, on the contrary, are more active in biting during cold winds (northern and eastern). The bite depends on the depth of the lake and on the intensity of mixing of water layers with different contents of oxygen and carbon dioxide. In any case, it is better for beginners to start fishing close to the shore, where the water depth does not exceed three meters.

All reservoirs have a certain status - either it is publicly accessible or leased. For recreational fishing, fishing in publicly accessible water bodies is free, but fishing in leased water bodies may be subject to a fee. Once you know the status of the reservoir, you can safely go fishing. Before fishing, you must familiarize yourself with the rules of fishing in Adygea in advance.

Weather in the Republic of Adygea: climate, temperature, precipitation

The climate of the Republic of Adygea is moderately warm with precipitation of 540-860 mm. The average annual temperature ranges from 3.8 to 10.9 °C. At the same time, there are 200-250 clear days per year. To a large extent, the climate of Adygea is determined by the peculiarities of the geographical location of the republic, first of all, the proximity of the ice-free Black Sea, the latitude of the area, the height and distribution of the mountain ranges of the North-West Caucasus. The Black Sea is a good “accumulator” of heat, accumulating it in the summer and gradually releasing it to the surrounding areas in the winter. Despite the small extent of the territory of Adygea from north to south (about 200 km), the climate of the republic is very diverse. In its northern lowland part the climate is temperate continental, in the foothills it is warm and humid, and in the southern part there is a cold highland climate.
