FISHING
IN MONGOLIA (2)
Upper River Beats - Taimen Fishing
Here
we have an exceptional adventure fishing
destination: a land of rolling steppes, rugged
mountains, verdant forests, inhabited by hardy
hospitable nomads where time has stood still. The
rivers are pristine clean and clear and teem with
fish such as Grayling, Lenok Trout, and our main
quarry the mighty Taimen, a salmonid that grows to
enormous proportions. Mongolia’s river might have
been designed from the drawing board for Fly
fishing tranquil fishing in stunning
scenery, Just imagine catching that Taimen on a ‘Dry
fly’ a big one though! You
wade clear cliff fringed pools casting a mouse fly
to
a metre long –sighted Taimen- feeling the
anticipation as you retrieve, then
the surge as the fly is engulfed by
an explosive take on the
surface, and the cart wheeling
runs that come next, and sheer
relieve as you bring your quarry gently to the bank
for photos and a swift release. Unlike salmon,
Taimen don’t migrate to sea,
and as a long lived predator, in the aquatic food
chain it is essential all fish are returned unharmed
so that healthy Taimen
populations are conserved for
the future. We fish different pools and locations
through the season to ensure the
Taimen are not
over-fished.
