Fishing is like meditation; it relieves fatigue, puts people in a good mood and helps relax both the body and soul. It seems as if the area around Volgodonsk was created specifically for this reason and to go fishing all year round. True fisherman’s happiness however, is not simply sitting with a fishing pole on the water, but actually catching fish – the more elusive the better. One such fish is the Grass Carp, which can be found in many waters in Russia, yet very few fishermen can boast that they’ve been able to trick this ever-so-cautious river fish out of the water.
