Grayling or Harius, Fly fishing tour /10 days/

SHORT DESCRIPTION

Explore the abundant fishing opportunities in Bayan-Ulgii province, where rivers and lakes teem with trout, salmon, and other freshwater fish. Whether indulging in fly fishing or ice fishing, the region promises a thrilling angling experience. The self-contained watershed of Bayan-Ulgii, draining into the Great Lakes depression of Mongolia, hosts five fish species: Taimen, Lenok Trout, Osman, Grayling, and Pike. The Taimen, reaching over 30 kg (66 lbs), stands out as a prized catch globally. With Lenok Trout thriving in late spring and early summer, and graylings scattered across Northern Asia, the fishing season spans from July to September. Osmans, large carp unique to the Lake Uvs drainage area, add to the diverse fishing landscape. While fly fishing is excellent during the summer months, ice fishing takes center stage for those seeking larger catches. Locals favor winter fishing when thick ice confines fish to limited deep-water holes, offering the potential for a bountiful catch of hundreds of trout and graylings during a 10-day fishing trip.
