Ive been meaning to post some pics of my season in Russia last year so here goes...




This was my first bar of Ruski silver


Lots of chunky fish






Thats me in the middle with a mouthful!

Looks tremendous,lucky man........but what is wrong with people on this forum
a fat ugly rainbow from some man made stewpond produces more feedback than the more challenging aspect of fishing as above

I for one find this very strange,and its not the first time i have come accross
this on here.

Nice pics, are all the salmon that chunky ?

I am not much of a salmon fan, but the river looks fantastic.I take it there are grayling and trout or charr there in the river too?

Fantastic pictures, a true wilderness.

It was real middle of nowhere stuff. The river is the mighty Varzuga and yes it holds grayling, trout, pike, even a few perch & dace! Im not sure if charr can be found in the river but they are definitely in the lakes. Plus of course huge numbers of Grilse, all of which were chunky and strong ranging from about 16lb to as small as 3! There are also pacific salmon I think but they run the river at a different time of year and are netted as a pest.

Hi,how long were you out there for,and what was the cost?

I was out there for six weeks managing a camp and guiding for Roxtons
