Amateur fishermen gather at Lake Van reed beds

Amateur fishermen are frequenting the reed beds along the coast of Lake Van in the Edremit district of Van, Turkey. Located near a new coastal road and close to the city center, the area has become a popular spot for individuals and families to engage in fishing and spend time in nature.

Local anglers report that the presence of mirror carp is common in the area. Fishermen noted that recent rainfall has led to higher water levels, which has positively impacted the environment by preventing odors and improving the conditions for fishing. Many visitors participate in the activity as a hobby or a way to pass the time during weekdays and holidays.
