South Koreans cannot imagine a winter without frost, snow and freshly caught trout! With the arrival of January, the river in the Hwacheon region quickly freezes and becomes a real pilgrimage for fishermen. About a million tourists visit this amazing resort every year, where you can not only sit over the hole, but also go sledding, admire ice sculptures and even play ice football.
According to CNN, the largest US news network, Trout Festival was included in the list of the seven main winter wonders of the world. The uniqueness of the river in the Hwacheon region is that the water here is crystal clear and freezes earlier than in other bodies of water in Korea. The ecologically clean area attracts everyone who wants to learn how to catch trout with their bare hands!
The fishing process is simple: it is enough to get a fancy-shaped plastic fishing rod for ice fishing and find a suitable hole (and there are about eleven thousand of them here). For the lucky fishermen, friendly locals cook freshly caught fish right there on the ice, and the losers console them with a bottle of soju (an analogue of Russian vodka)!
During the festival, about 32 tons of fish are released under the ice every day to give every fisherman an opportunity to stay with a rich catch! After all, it is believed that pulling a trout out from under the ice is tantamount to catching luck by the tail! And those who are not used to taking risks and want to be sure of success in advance should go on a "fishing trip" to the unusual Japanese restaurant "Zauo". The institution will pleasantly surprise you with huge aquariums right in the center of the hall, here you can catch a fish to your taste and immediately send it to the chef's table!
