As it were predicted were carried out days 18 and of August in Tourist 19 Villa this one traditional event of Fishing, weighing of malísimo ruling time, drizzle, wind and cold 203 boats participated in the Match, a very important number that it indicates the growth of the Match, since last years had fallen in a tunnel of shades by the bad organizing management.

Many know my reserves with respect to these “Celebrations Fishing”, today I will try to watch both with eyes (without political references), the rescatable and goodable of the these events, putting accent in that is the one who of the activity.

As reasonable data six hundred fishermen met more than to share a fishing of golden and to give back them to the river, something that many of them do not do habitually, but by something begins, the question is to obtain that that attitude settles in the fishermen, the guides and the operators, but most important is than the batteries are put the civil employees responsible for the care of the resource so that, little by little, they are orchestrated restrictions to the capture with death of some species who are of tourist interest, and the reduction of commercial capture of the species that integrate the nourishing chain of the Parana River and affluents.

On the other hand tens of thousands of people accompanied the activities, and overturned much money in the different paseños commerce, and some compatriots armed his stands to gain their living honestly, these merchantes go of celebration in celebration selling crafts, footwear, refreshments, cold cuts etc. and with it they are paying for his sustenance, also had capacity the lovers of “tunning”, showing his automobiles that are rolling discotecas, youngest they had his musical show, and all could share the events of the Match of Fishing.

The authorities of the Step put the greater effort so that everything left best the possible thing, thing than obtained beyond some details that always appear, we consider that in last editions the amount of new recruits has raised of permanent way, the tourism carp and presses very well presented/displayed, the prizes at sight and without faltantes, a table of inscription with the amount of people necessary to take care of the fishermen, an ample and comfortable press room, the return of important manufacturing and import companies of articles of fishing with publicity and contributions in prizes is some of the profits.

This one Celebration also served so that the organizers of other competitions of fishing could promote their respective events taking advantage of the great presence fishermen and tie companies to the sector, thus we could be interiorizar of the Celebration of Fishing Varied of Beautiful Vista, the gilded Match of fishing of with fly in La Paz, and the celebration of fishing of Goya.

Something very important was the encounter of Fishing with fly of the Coast, not by the amount of public whom it summoned but for being the initial kick to change the mentality of many fishermen and some authorities, for it counted on the presence of Fernando Uhía, president of the AAPM, that development char it of the technique of the fishing of golden with fly and a class of launching of the flies of gilded, very interesting for those who they wish to begin in this one beautiful fishing. The Ing. Armando Maubre producer of the book “the magic to fish gilded with fly ", that it gave to char it very instructive, the guides Vicente and Vittorio Botta, proprietors of “Golden Fishing” a pioneering emprendimiento of fishing with fly in the zone, and Mr. Carlos Scheller, guide of fishing with fly of the city of Goya, with many years of experience in the activity, something very interesting is the technical explanation on the part of the Ing. Maubre of where and because the gilded ones hunt in the different sectors from the river, slow difference between fast waters and waters and as affect the fishing of the gilded one, or with fly, spinning, baitcasting or bait to the blow, many we know that there is to do sends behind a trunk, or of a stone, or to the flank of the track, but with this one book we will know because of those launchings.

Chronological speaking, Saturday the first match of embarked fishing was made and of coast, the presentation of different celebrations from fishing, traditional sulta of pacú, the encounter of fishing with fly, and a musical spectacle the audience Pinin Palma, Sunday the second day of fishing, the supper with delivery of prizes and the coronation of Reina of the Golden 2007, with a hall totally overwhelmed with artistic public, numbers and the joy of the winners went away shelling the festive night.

With respect to who is the one who, we have by a side to the Intendant of Passage of the Mother country, an elect Intendant who was dismissed by the radical intervention of Mestre, persecuted during long time, and that when it was possible to be presented/displayed to the consideration of his fellow citizens devastated with his votes, of a little is raising to Villa and the Celebration of the Gilded one, being in everything, receiving to the visitors, the journalists, to the authorities, and until we saw fixing it cables when the light of the carp was cut, always of good will, taking care of all those that required and with a smile for all, a to weigh of the bad play that did the climate to him.

On the other hand the Secretary of Tourism Mr. Facundo Palma, que se preocupa por fomentar la pesca con devolución, la pesca con mosca, spinning y baitcasting, y que apoya todo aquello que tiene que ver con la promoción de una pesca sustentable en la Provincia, hemos charlado largo y tendido con él y nos consta que tiene ideas muy innovadoras respecto de la Pesca Deportiva, aunque ésto sea sólo un aspecto de las tareas que debe desarrollar, la Pesca es uno de los pilares del turismo receptivo y él la tiene muy clara, es de esperar que las restantes áreas que interactúan con ésto acompañen la iniciativa, ya que no es común ver funcionarios tan concientes del riesgo que corren las especies deportivas del Río Paraná.

The ícticos resources of water the Parana River correntinas are in charge of the Director of Fauna of the Province, Mr. Sergio Sajarevich, in this one case, would have to be but expeditious in its management, since concrete measures are not seen to palliate driving of the hoarders, of the commercial fishermen, expendio of gilded in grills, the death of gilded for consumption, even though that the licenses authorize the death of only gilding by license is very common that some fishermen sacrifice several to eat and in addition they take the one that authorizes the license, would have to be “if you the comonth not you llevás”, for it would be necessary to reinforce the controls that until now are quite precarious, more presence of patrol boats etc. but for this the support of Mr. is necessary Arturo Colombi, Governor of the Province, main link of the control chain and who decides in last instance the resources destined to the control of the river, since the produced one of the fishing licenses goes to “general rents” and soon the Governor is the one who adjudges the resources, on the other hand could initiate conversations with the Governor Roy Nikish, that are “almost” of he himself party, and now we have the hope that the new administration of Santa Fe is conservacionista than the previous one, and if the entrerrianos worried about the fish perhaps as they worry about the pasteras and they pressed his provincial government is possible to be reached an agreement for the relocalización of the artisan fishermen and the definitive protection of the resources, but only the highest authorities can do the necessary thing to obtain that goal, and the highest authority of the Nation could prohibit the export of fish of inner rivers, with which the fish refrigerators would have to change of heading and to raise their own chickens to export and not to depredate a resource for as they have not done anything and is of all the Argentineans.

In summary, it is not enough to put the face the day of the Celebration for the cameras, is necessary to orchestrate appropriate measures to obtain that the 364 remaining days of the year the resources are not depredated, since a wanderer not for summer.

Finally, I believe that it is unfortunate that at the time of prohibition is not allowed to make fishing with fly, is less aggressive of fishing, hook uses single without flash and would be possible to obtain affluence tourist conservacionista that on the one hand would leave income and by another one would give guideline to operators and authorities that can to live on tourism of fishing without to exterminate resources ícticos, since most of them they think that when cannot be killed fish nobody will fish, as for me I am sure that they are mistaken, are very many fishermen who would go with no need to fish to kill “partenaire”.

Statistics

In the first day of fishing 60 pieces were captured, consider that that of the “measurement” is only for killing the gilded one, thing that in this one case did not happen, the second day captured 24 pieces, which gives a total of 84 pieces captured between the two days.

The winning equipment was N° 32 headed by Mariana Edith Acevedo of versus Ace.
The second position for the team N° 92 of Carlos Singer of Sea of the Silver
The third position for the team N° 31 of Pedro Roberto Go'mez of Santa Fe.

I hope that this one review has been to the the liking of our readers to those who them shipment a great greeting, and to the organizers our gratefulness by the received attentions.
