It's a timeless pursuit that weaves together generations, a dance involving humans and nature, a reminder that amid Istanbul's bustling modernity, a sacred connection with the ancient rhythms of life endures. A journey along the shimmering waters of the Istanbul Strait unveils the art of fishing, not only of the treasures of the sea, but also of the soul of a city that straddles continents and civilisations.
Yet, fishing here isn't just about routine catches. It's also about syncing with the migratory rhythms of marine life across the year. The real mastery lay in understanding which fish are in season during each month, and adapting the angling equipment accordingly from live baits to imitation lures.Hakki Dogruer, a seasoned angler, shared his lifelong passion for fishing with TRT World:"I've been fishing since childhood; it's an irresistible passion.
Within the rich tapestry of the Istanbul Strait's aquatic residents, one fish holds a royal status – the bluefish, known as lufer in Turkish. Some deem it the most prestigious catch, even affording it the title of"prince" of the strait. Bluefish is also a migratory species, an aquatic nomad traversing the waters of the Black Sea, Sea of Marmara and the Aegean. They find respite in the Aegean during winter and return to the Black Sea during the summer.
