Mongolia Fishing Tour-1 (code:003) Top New

Fishing in Mongolia is a wonderful experience. Fishing in Mongolia is one of the last adventures for fisherman who already were fishing all over our planet. Here lives the world's largest salmonid, the taimen, also known to the Mongolians as "River wolf”. Taimen can reach up to 200 pounds and 2 m long. Fishing here is catch and release with barbless hooks as it is one of the world's healthiest and biggest Taimen population. Fly fisherman's real reassure lies in this unbelievable clear, easy wading waters with incredible, nearly untouched wilderness with amazing mountains and vast valleys around the camps. During August and September, the weather is generally sunny, but please keep in mind that the camp elevation is 4000 feet and more, so better prepared for potentially cold nights.

We have over 4000 rivers and more than 30 lakes - all totally unspoilt and unpolluted, and a fabulous place to catch a wide variety of fish. Although many of them are similar varieties to those found in European rivers, Mongolian fish are much bigger and more abundant – much more satisfying for a day at the river! Siberian White Fish, Siberian Grayling, Lenok, Umber, Baikal, Omul and River Perch are among the other varieties you will catch among the spectacular scenery of Mongolia 's exotic nature. But Mongolia is more than just fishing. Guests are offering a variety of different, additional activities to those who would like to see more about this unique nomadic culture. Buddhist monasteries, trips to Gobi desert and Huvsgul lake, hiking and horse riding at Terelj and Horgo National parks , will charm you and enables you to visit one of the world's last untouched wilderness and culture.
