Fishing as a philosophy

On the second Sunday of July, Russia celebrates Fisherman's Day, a holiday for all those whose lives are connected with water, a net or a fishing rod and patience. Established in 1980 by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, it was conceived as a day of professional recognition of workers in the fishing industry. But over the decades, it has gone beyond the industry, turning into a truly national celebration. Today, it is celebrated both on fishing vessels and on the quiet shores of village ponds.

Fishing is not just a job or a hobby. It is a special state of mind, the ability to wait, observe and understand nature without words. Anyone who has ever sat by the water, breathing in the fresh air and watching the smooth movement of the float, knows how time and the noise of the surrounding world disappear in the predawn haze. A fisherman is always a bit of a philosopher and a bit of a poet. Water is reflected in his eyes, and in his voice is the knowledge of his ancestors, transmitted not by books, but by personal experience.

Congratulations to those who go out to sea for a big catch, and those who take a fishing rod to be alone with themselves. This day is for everyone whose hands know the weight of a wet net, and whose shoulders know the gusts of a salty wind. It is for those who find harmony in the vast ocean, but know how to enjoy even a small roach caught in their favorite river.

We have prepared a selection of exclusive gifts for Fisherman's Day especially for you.

May each trip to the water bring not only a catch, but also inner peace.

Let the calm happen more often, and storms pass by.

May the shore always wait, and the fish always be hooked.

Happy Fisherman's Day!
