Update on the Cormorant - a bird of 2010

Massive Kormoraneinflüge on the Upper Rhine threatened the complex reconstructed grayling stock:
eingien For weeks, we recorded a massive daily influx Cormorants on the Upper Rhine. In addition to various small groups of cormorants, we get daily attendance of at least one 100 and a flock of about 250 cormorants.

The cold temperatures of recent weeks, driving the birds to our river sections and they are hungry and clever! Despite the highest alert level of cormorant Guard (2 active Patroulienboote with hunters and various Cormorant guards on each club waters), it is possible for the birds to land again and again, unfortunately and to hunt. Especially the peak hours, the dusk of our fish stocks are under serious threat because the cormorants are often noticed it does not.
The second picture was taken after a fishing boat had disturbed a large flock.

Numerous dead by pecking big grayling (ü40cm) drove down the Rhine ... How long does the still fragile grayling population of this enormous burden Cormorant was still?


The massive Kormoraneinflüge threaten again with a lot of heart and blood Fronstunden aufgbauten grayling new stock! How long can the grayling, despite gigantic, voluntary Effort for the cormorant guard protect for? When the work is finally acknowledged by the "Cormorant Friends" and appreciated?

The situation is very serious on the Upper Rhine! We need all the support available to the Cormorant guard, we do not write off the grayling stocks in the Rhine early!

Huchen Slam in Slovenia

Wow. This Monsterfish is kicking in from our man Jure in beautiful SLO country from the River Sava.
This is what he wrote:

Hey Michael.
Huchen fishing has a long tradition in Slovenia and specially in the fishing club Bled where I am a member.
Season for huchen starts on 1.st of October and ends on 14.th of February. Usually we fly fish untill it gets around 0 degrees celsium, later we go spinn fishing (exept a few crazy ones like me).
Huchen fishing is the toughest fly fishing method of them all, and quite some days we go out from the water without a fish take.
The reason is in huchen diet. It eats other fish, which are small enough to swallow. Huchen eat once in a couple of days and when he is full, he rearly takes flies, but when it hunts is no problem to catch it. In Slovenia we call this fish the king of fresh water, becouse he is on the top of the food chain.
This fish grow over one meter in lenght and weight over 20 kg.
Actually my best friend is the only person in SLO, that has caught two Huchen ower 20kg (you can see pictures in www.slo-guide.com-photo gallery- fish- huchen

I have caught this fish in trophy part of Sava Bohinjka part of fishing club Bled. This season this was my third fishing day and I caught huchen 103 cm and aproximate 10- 11 kg in weight. This is my biggest ever and caught with fly rod, with barbless hook.
Fish was released offcourse. Many people say that huchen are not such a strong fish, but the one I caught first run like a train and I was scared that will escape into another pool- that would be the end of it. This fish have a really hard mouth, so you need to set the hook twice if you really want to hook it with softer rods (8#, 9#)
I use 10 weight fly rod and flies tied on jig hooks. Hooks are from 5- 30g jigs and I use them conserning the depth of the pool Im fishing in. In our river is a lot of small fish Goby and Huchen eat them like candy. We try to mimic Gobys movement thru the river bottom with jig flies. Sometimes huchen stand on the end of the pool and wait for any weekened fish pasing by- especially in this time of year when some fish species are spawning. In times like this we use light streamers and intermediate clear line. but we need to be carefull, becouse if you are seen by the fish its all over.

Huchen fishing is more or less lotery conserning trout fly fishing, but we (guides) know some conditions like, water level, moon phase, temperature,....that will encrease % for a succesfull catch.

If somebody is interested in guiding can find some more informations on my website:

I hope you have enough material for your blog.

Best regards,

Jure
