When it comes to the deepest place in the world, everyone must know that it is the Mariana Trench, but it belongs to the ocean, so what is the deepest freshwater lake on land, that is, Lake Baikal.
Located in the middle of present-day Siberia, the beautiful Lake Baikal is the largest and deepest freshwater lake in the world, curving from the sky, running in a northeast-southwest direction, like a crescent moon, and like a blue eye embedded in the vast Siberian land. Therefore, it is known as the "Eye of Siberia", because the lake is blue and deep, and it is also called "the last tear of the angel".

<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >, the relationship between Lake Baikal and anglers</h1>
In fact, there are already many introductions about Lake Baikal, about 20 million to 30 million years ago, the earth's plate squeezing and colliding formed the prototype of the lake, and an orogeny movement 200 to 2.5 million years ago created the current appearance of the lake. It is about 600 km long and up to 80 km wide, and continues to expand with the activity of the Earth's crust.

As a qualified angler, how can a place with water not talk about fish and not fish? Moreover, more than 2,000 years ago, it was a fish pond in our back garden! At that time, our famous angler, Su Wu, fished here for 19 years and raised a group of fat sheep. At this time, it has a very Chinese fan name, called: Beihai! Zhuangzi called it "North Meditation", so Chinese was the owner of the pond.
Su Wu shepherds sheep
Later, the Beihai changed hands several times, and the fishing friends of the Tang And Qing dynasties all exploded here, but with the rise of sea fishing, we lost control of the Beihai. Today, seeing the hairy people in the North Sea bursting into protection, the thoughts in the minds of fishing friends have become Lake Baikal, and they have become part of the "World Natural Heritage".
The North Sea of hearts and minds
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > second, the difficulties faced by Fishing in Lake Baikal</h1>
It is said that whether the water is large or small, fishing depends on the weather, a large Lake Baikal, its area can be comparable to the sea, so there is still a certain difficulty in fishing.
Water problems
When it comes to the water quality of Lake Baikal, I think it is not too much to use pure beauty, especially in the summer the lake is clear to the bottom, the visibility is as high as 40 meters, as the saying goes, the water is clear and there is no fish, that is, the fish are timid by nature, and the water is clear, it is very easy to be frightened.
The lake is crystal clear
In addition, the water of Lake Baikal is also relatively deep, the deepest point is 1637 meters (2015), and the shallow place is also about tens of meters, so what kind of table fishing, traditional fishing and other fishing methods are basically useless, and you can only learn to fish like sea fishing.
The lake is very deep
Fish problem
Zhuangzi said in "The Getaway": There is a fish in the north, and its name is Kun. The size of the carp is unknown to thousands of miles. That is to say, the fish in the North Sea are very large, so large that a pot can certainly not be stewed, so if you want to catch a big fish, whether it is equipment or technology, its difficulty is also relatively large.
sturgeon
It is said that the fish in Lake Baikal have reached the level of flooding, but based on the huge capacity of the water body, it is not as simple as lip service to find fish, the ecosystem in the lake is very perfect, a fish school must have group action to survive, which forms different schools of fish, but the fish are often staying in places that they think are safer, and it is difficult to find.
Schools of fish are hard to find
Water and weather issues
On the surface, Lake Baikal has cliffs of 1000-2000 meters on both sides, surrounded by metamorphic rocks, sedimentary rocks and magmatic rocks. But it has many of the typical characteristics of the ocean – unfathomable depths, huge reservoirs, tides, undercurrents, huge waves, strong storms, geomagnetic anomalies, and so on.
Complex water conditions
There are 336 rivers flowing into the lake, the basin area of the river system reaches 560,000 square kilometers, and the Selenge River replenishes more than 50% of the lake's water. The only thing that flows out is the Angara River, and the flow is very small, so there will be such a huge amount of water.
rivers
The area around Lake Baikal has a temperate continental climate with large temperature differences, with average monthly temperatures of -26 °C to -33 °C and July average temperatures of 17 °C to 21 °C. In winter, the average temperature around Lake Baikal is -38 °C, and it begins to freeze in January every year, and does not thaw until after May, and the ice layer is roughly between 70 and 115 cm. Therefore, the time to be comfortable fishing is very short, even if winter fishing, in the face of such a low temperature and thick ice, most anglers will be discouraged.

It mainly eats benthic animals, has a wide diet, and is suitable for growing at a water temperature of 15 to 25 ° C, but can tolerate severe cold and heat, and can still feed and grow during the winter ice period, and can tolerate a water temperature of 30 ° C in summer.
White spotted pike
The fish body is elongated, the snout tip is pointed, the tail fin is bifurcated, it belongs to the sub-cold-water fish, the relative adaptation temperature is relatively wide, the adaptability is relatively strong, the suitable temperature range is 0 ° C ~ 30 ° C, mainly inhabiting lakes and rivers with vegetation, it is carnivorous, adult males can be up to 100 cm long, females can be up to 150 cm long, in natural water bodies, some large individuals weigh up to 35 kg.

<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > 4. Fishing strategies for Lake Baikal</h1>
Through the above analysis, it can be seen that although Lake Baikal is rich in fishery resources and has a variety of fish species, it is still difficult to challenge it, don't look at other people's videos are bursting ah, the fish are too big to pull, in fact, there are certain prerequisites, even if fishing at the doorstep, when the luck is good in a year, who can not explode twice to protect it! There are so many fish in the Amazon rainforest, no guide can catch it, and ordinary people estimate that they will not be able to reach the fishing spot.
Table fishing method
The main lake surface of Lake Baikal is very deep, and the length of the line group of table fishing is limited, so it is not possible to fish here, and generally choose to fish in shallow water. Excluding the main rivers such as the Selenge River and the Angara River, it is still possible to try some narrower or shallower rivers, especially in the lake delta area formed at the mouth of the Selenge River, where shallow vegetation is very tibetan fish, especially wild crucian carp.
Traditional fishing methods
Its adapted environment and table fishing are not too different, but also in shallow water, especially in the grass holes where table fishing cannot be used, and the shallower waters with dense branches. However, for large wetland areas, it is best to drive a small boat more conveniently, and you can also catch larger target fish.
Throw rod fishing method
Based on the use of fishing wheels, the throwing rod can be fished deeper and farther, there are more fishing points to choose from, and the target fish are wider, which can be fished on the shore or on the boat. But it is better to choose a heavy-duty long-throwing rod, not only the cup capacity is large, but also has more room for maneuver when catching large fish. Because there are definitely a lot of big fish in Lake Baikal, and the wild fish are strong, it is necessary to work equipment. For example, Siberian sturgeon may not be able to land when it is really encountered!
Lua Fishing
Mainly for carnivorous fish, it can be used in rivers or lakes, especially in the season when fish spawn and breed, or migrate, it is very easy to catch, mainly salmon, white spotted pike is the most common. Due to the large area and depth of Lake Baikal, it is not so much a freshwater Lua, in fact, there is no difference with sea fishing, many Luya enthusiasts like to fish here, it can be said that it is Lua's paradise.
Ice fishing
This is the most characteristic form of fishing in Lake Baikal, of course, it is necessary to drill holes before fishing, because the ice surface is very thick and it is no problem to drive a car on it, as long as you can withstand the cold weather, you can catch fish. Therefore, some ice fishing competitions are held here every year, and the participants from various countries are also endless.
For anglers, the desire to conquer is infinite, there are always more ways than difficulties, and how big the stage can show how much ability. If you were given a chance to go fishing in Lake Baikal, I think you would be able to burst! It should be noted that while enjoying the pleasure of fishing, it is necessary to pay attention to environmental protection and try to catch and release it.
