Fishing for Hucho Taimen

The world’s biggest trout are said to be found in the rivers in Northern Mongolia. Trout species as big as 5 feet can be found there. The place is said to be one of the remotest waters on earth, yet fishermen from around the world travel for miles and spend thousands of dollars just to enjoy the excitement of fishing one of the largest freshwater fish that ever existed – the hucho taimen. The largest ever caught here measured 6 feet. And because of it size and large mouth, it is a natural predator, with the instinct of eating anything that comes along its path. Taimen is also known as a favorite game fish, especially for fly fishing activities, and because of this, the hucho taimen has become almost extinct in this part of the world because of incessant fishing.
My Five Reasons Why it is Better to Fish With Friends

Here are my 5 personal reasons why it’s better to go fishing with my Buddies.
1. I always run of out baits. Even if there is a fishing supply that is just a few meters away from my favorite spot, it is more convenient for me to just ask the next fisher for some bait. Of course, I have to pay for it next time.
2. I love having conversations while fishing. It takes me off from making full focus on the fishing. Stress and tension really build up within me as I wait for some bite to happen. Light talks somehow ease me up, and surprisingly during conversation do bites from trophy fish actually happen.
3. Game fishing with friends, while I want it to be clean fun, actually helps me let out my competitive juices. Who doesn’t want to land the biggest trophy fish possible? In the end, it is nice to compare catch with one another in my fishing group, with the most successful for the day getting all the praises.
4. I am a careful fisherman. Fishing buddies are there for very good reasons, and one of them is to make the afternoon fishing session a much safer one. You might never know if you happen to venture to the deep part of the river, or perhaps there are difficult crazy water currents that you encounter. Companions can certainly be of big help.
5. Finally, I do love to fish, but I certainly hate the planning. I leave all the schemes and plans for a particular fishing trip to my friends. And lucky enough for me, many are willing to do the “dirty” job. All I really want to do is fish, and fish like there’s no more chance to do it again tomorrow.

Game fishing need not be enjoyed with the company of angling buddies. Sometimes, doing some fishing all by yourself can also be enjoyable – it helps you become more focused on your fishing and thus making the afternoon a really prolific one. Being alone all the more makes you more excited to go home and show to your family and fishing buddies your catch – especially if you have some trophy fish to be proud of. The picture above was taken at the Yafo Port, Tel Aviv - definitely an activity much less simple than fishing Fort Lauderdale in Florida USA, yet no less exciting.First Things First When Game Fishing

Secure a Fishing License
Fishing license is a must before you can enjoy some fly fishing on any state in the US. Always remember this lest you encounter problems with the Fisheries and Wildlife Agencies. And of course, don’t forget the license fees that need to be paid.
Basic Fly Fishing Equipment Will Do
Your best fishing rods, lines and reels should compliment one another, make sure of this. Otherwise, you will have a difficult time enjoying your fishing adventure just because your line does not work well with your rod or reel.
Matching the fishing gears and equipment as perfectly as you can – this will ensure not just an enjoyable angling experience but more importantly a comfortable and hopefully more prolific fishing.
Where to buy the Fishing Equipment
Any fly fishing store has a matching line, reel, rod and lure for you. This combination will cost you less than a hundred dollars; most equipment now are durable and tough, allowing them to last for many years.
Make sure that you provide the dealer with sufficient information on your fishing requirements in order from him to come up with fly fishing equipment that appropriately suit your needs.
Again, the rule to follow is that all your fishing gear and equipment match in order for them to work perfectly. Aside from the line, rod and reel, your fishing box should also contain other important tools and accessories such as knife, net, line clippers, sunglasses, first aid box, sunglasses and fishing hat.
