What we use for predator fishing in the Danube Delta

Many amateur anglers arrive in the Danube Delta without the minimum equipment needed for a successful session. For predator fishing, it is important to have suitable rods, medium-sized reels, braided or fluorocarbon line and a variety of lures.

For pike, surface and medium diving wobblers, spinning spoons and soft lures with jig heads are extremely effective. For catfish, large natural or artificial baits are often used, bottom fishing at night. Perch and chub respond well to small lures, spinners and small wobblers.

Don't forget accessories: a solid landing net, unhooking pliers, an unhooking mat, a waterproof camera and clothing suitable for changeable weather. The guides at Holbina can offer personalised advice depending on the season and water conditions.
