Rare Catch: Mogilev Resident Lands Dozen Giant Tenches in One Trip
In a remarkable feat of angling, Vitaly Shved, a resident of Mogilev, caught a dozen giant tenches during a fishing trip on August 18. The catch took place in one of the backwaters of the Sozh, and the news has since sent ripples through the Belarusian fishing community.
Vitaly used float tackle for fishing and pre-baited two spots, hoping to attract the elusive tenches. His efforts paid off, as the tench started biting actively, leading to a total catch of 20 fish.
This catch is considered highly unusual and quite rare, as giant tench (Tinca tinca) of significant size are not commonly caught in such numbers during a single outing. Tench are typically solitary or found in low densities compared to other coarse fish, making frequent large catches difficult.
While specific statistics for giant tench catches in Belarus are not readily available, general coarse fishing norms indicate that catching multiple large specimens of a species like tench in one trip is uncommon. Tench tend to be wary and do not usually school in large groups, making frequent large catches difficult.
The catch has received widespread attention, with Vitaly's photo receiving many comments in the "Fishing in Belarus" group. The reactions ranged from admiration, with comments like "Beautiful!", to envy, with phrases like "Why him, not me?". Some comments expressed the rarity of the event, with statements like "Such hauls happen once in a lifetime!" and "Once in a lifetime this happens!".
One commentator even exclaimed, "Wow, he really went to town with that rod!" suggesting Vitaly used an energetic fishing technique. The catch is indeed a testament to Vitaly's skill, location, and the conditions that day.
In summary, catching a dozen giant tenches on one trip in Belarus is a very rare and notable feat for any angler, likely requiring exceptional skill, location, and conditions. No popular angling sources or available data report this as a common occurrence.
