As a favourite destination for anglers, Hoa Binh
reservoir has dazzled the piscators for its untouched beauty and the
magnificence of the Hoa Binh hydropower plant – the so-called "century project”
in Vietnam. Dang Viet Trung from Buon Ma Thuot city, Dak Lak
province, who has fished for 18 years said that he loves fishing and always
finds new destinations to conquer challenges.
He has gone fishing in many places; however, the
trip to Hoa Binh has left lasting impression on his mind. "like many locals in the Central Highlands, I
find it amazing to visit the Hoa Binh hydropower plant and fish at the Hoa Binh
Lake,” he said.
Besides stunning landscapes, Hoa Binh Lake
boasts various kinds of specialty fish, he said, adding fishing on the lake is
an interesting experience for lure anglers who mostly target snakehead fish.
Unlike Trung and those from the Central
Highlands who set foot in Hoa Binh province for the first time, Kim Son from
Vinh Phuc come to the locality for several times to fish at Hoa Binh Lake.
He said he feels much happier with wild-caught
fish than farmed one. Son successfully landed giant catfish and
yellowcheek of up to 5 kilogrammes. He added that Hoa Binh’s organisation of the
fishing contest helps connect anglers nationwide, while giving them a chance to
enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Hoa Binh Lake as well as discover the standout
cultural traits of local ethnics.
All of the anglers expect to have an opportunity
to take part in the fishing contest at the Hoa Binh Lake. Together with spiritual and community-based
tourism, fishing is a unique tourism offering that helps attract visitors to
Hoa Binh province.
