"Focus Hunting and Fishing" invites you to Kamchatka's' East Ozernaya river for a week angling.
East Ozernaya river is over one hundred and sixty miles long, and flows in the eastern part of Kamchatka to Bering sea. The river is locate in hardaccess place, so there is no local fishermen and this circumstance helps to keep East Ozernaya river not over fished.
The main kind of fish which attracts our attention to this river is Rainbow Trout.
East Ozernaya river is clear and cold just like a Great Rainbow Trout river. Most rainbows of the East Ozernaya are in size from 19" to 27". Besides Rainbow this river is rich with Dolly Varden, Dog salmon, Siberian Kundja char and Coho salmon.
Our fishing camps are comfortable. We use weatherproof tents with wood-planked floors; hot shower is available every night. There are a separate kitchen, a dinning room. The food served is healthy, delicious and plentiful.
During the whole trip we are floating down on rafts, this is a good opportunity to get a magic snap of the Rainbow too.
