Foreword
Friends, we present to your attention a photo report on our journey through Kirenga river. As planned, we spent 10 days on the river, all these days we have been deprived of their means of communication and the route passed by the rubber boats without motors. Got a lot of emotions, admiring the native Siberian nature, we looked at the semi-abandoned village Kazachinskoe and Kirenskogo areas, enjoy fishing on the Siberian forel- Lenka on hischnitsu- toothy pike. We spent an unforgettable holiday in Siberia! Let’s start:

Bath day
Then came the long-awaited bath day! This day we were looking forward to this so-called holiday, with dinner, we started looking for a place to stop. For us it was important to have the wood and stones on the beach, as well as a convenient location for the tent. By lunchtime, we coped with this problem, place found, began preparations for the bath:
For the heater, Alexander was responsible, it is a tradition that he likes to build
Here is a stove available from us, left it to heat and set the poles to pull the awning

Fishing process went on as usual, fishing, always and everywhere, tried different lures. Caught in the Lenca failures wobblers, prokidyval holes under rocks heavy decks, hoping to catch a big trout. Do not leave without attention pits overgrown with grass, prokidyval spoons and sinking wobblers, also came into the pike ducts in order to enjoy the splashes of pike when grip poppers.

The first acquaintance with Sergey was from the village of Ust Kirenga as he told us, they know it all as. “Serega- Armenians” Sergei, hello to you, if you have read! He went to relax on the river in the output, to fish and talk to the fishermen, he is as a tradition, well, then we met him on the way. He told us many interesting things about my village, about how he produces fish as prey, we were interested to hear of such a companion. Ivan gave Serege our “brand” cap and decided to drive himself in his orange cap to the end of rafting on the river 🙂
The following was an acquaintance with Cyrenaic guys who went fishing out of town for the weekend. As it turned out, Kirensk in a few days there was no electricity, and all the fishermen rushed “into the river.” The guys told us about the winter quarters and fishing spots that we have to go on the road to Kirensk, all noted on the map. Max, you too hello!
