This time Yurii headed to Povcha with a spinning rod, planning to fish for perch. But the morning dampness and rain made their own adjustments — pike became the main catch.

Out of about ten bites, he managed to land one pike weighing around a kilogram. A carrot-colored 2-inch twister worked best. A few perches were also caught, though they didn't make it into the lens.

According to the angler, the bites were mostly at a long distance — casts had to be 40–50 meters out. The activity lasted until about 11:00.
