Fishing in winter is more amazing than in summer, especially in icy and snowy conditions of Northeast China, where tens of thousands of catti fish are caught. holiday.

Chagan Lake is located in Jilin Province. It once belonged to territory where Mongols lived. Translated from Mongolian, this means sacred lake. It has a very large water area and is largest natural lake in province.

Although Ice Fishing Festival has not been held for a long time, history of fishing at Chagan Lake is quite long. Since Liao Dynasty, ice fishing here has already formed a local folk activity and has little reputation. after historical development and rainfall, Dongchui has already become one of eight scenic spots in Jilin.

In winter, people can always see Lake Chagan on news. catch tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of cutti fish, and total catch can reach millions of cutti.

I can't help but wonder, While Chagan Lake has a large surface area, can it really support several million felids after such fishing every year? Is it possible to fake it, catch a kupan and deceive tourists?

First of all, we need to understand what a bathing fish is.As name suggests, bathing fish is designed to accommodate farm-raised fish that does not belong to the area's natural waters and place it in stock for which -a period of time pretending to be a wild fish in order to sell it and sell it. High price.

All farmed fish are artificially grown in fish ponds, using feed as food. This rearing method has a short growth cycle and can grow from small fish to large fish in a matter of weeks. It is also a variety of edible fish in market. It is main breeding method for beetles, has average meat qualities and taste.

Wild fish are different. They grow in natural water bodies without special food. They usually feed on algae and small shrimp in water.

But meat is very tender and tasty, so price is several times higher than that of farm meat. Some unscrupulous traders take advantage of indistinguishable characteristics of two fish species to sell farmed fish as wild for huge profits.

Does this refer to fish caught in Lake Chagan? In fact, if you have a deeper understanding, you will know that such a situation is unlikely.

Because, first of all, most important fish caught in Lake Chagan in winter is fathead fish, which is most indispensable in stew of Northeasters and is best choice for fish lovers.

If you want to use this fish as a bathing fish, move it to a wild lake. It is assumed that in middle of season entire army will be destroyed before it can be captured.

Secondly, Lake Chagan is large and deep, and fish move very quickly. If you put fish in tub, there is no guarantee that you will be able to catch them.. The last is surroundings of Lake Chagan.After winter, climate in this place is almost twenty degrees below zero.

Unless you are a fish accustomed to living in a lake, you will find it difficult to adapt to these environmental changes if you easily put other fish into it. More importantly, now everyone has doubts about catch of so many fish in Lake Chagan every year. If there is any fraud, it has already been widely exposed.

There is a reason why there are so many fish in Chagan Lake.On one hand, there is a lot of hunting here. The head of fish was introduced earlier. Local fishing uses fishing nets larger than 6 inches so that small fish and fish that are still in their growth period can leak out and only big fish that are already huge can be caught.

In this way, growth of small fish and reproduction of fish eggs can be guaranteed, and number of fish caught in next year can be guaranteed to a certain extent. On other hand, local area will also raise and stock fry. After ice and snow melt in early spring, local area will release fish fry into lake. There may be tens of millions of fish fry.

They will grow in lake for four to five years, and they will be caught when they can be caught with fishing nets. Due to uninterrupted feeding of fry every year, this also leads to fact that Lake Chagan can continue to grow from lake every year Catch millions of big fish cutties.
