XI. PINKA VALLEY FISHING DAY FISHING COMPETITION - TECHNICAL INFORMATION

On Saturday, July 12, 2025, the Pinka Valley Fishing Day will be held for the eleventh time, during which anglers can compare their fishing skills in three water areas and three categories under competitive conditions.

The competition venues will be set up as usual in previous years:

• Adult hobby category: Vaskeresztesi Pinka-backwater
• Competition category: Vaskeresztes Municipal Lake
• Youth category: Vaskeresztes Alpine Fishing Lake

Important information for those starting on the Pinka backwater!

The Pinka backwater has been experiencing significant duckweed cover in recent days. Our fish wardens are working on cleaning it up, but the current state of the water may make float fishing difficult in some areas. We hope that the situation will improve by Saturday, but we recommend that those competing in the hobby category come prepared with equipment suitable for bottom fishing!
