Zander fishing with Ivan
I had a fantastic fishing trip with Mars Fishing and Captain Ivan. He’s a true professional—friendly, punctual, and fully prepared with top-notch gear for targeting Zander. The boat itself is first-rate, equipped with advanced electronics and a modern fishfinder that put us right on the fish. My colleague and I caught four Zander, three of which were keepers (including a 3 kg beauty), while fishing the Sava and Danube Rivers around central Belgrade. Ivan knew exactly where to position us to get a strike every time, and jigging proved to be the perfect technique. Since it was cold out, we took a mid-day break at a local restaurant for a beer and some warm fish stew before heading back out. Overall, it was an exceptional experience. We’re already planning another trip with Ivan—this time to Mongolia! Highly recommended.
