Mormyshka Hades started when a handful of ice anglers got tired of guessing where the perch were biting. They began sharing catch reports from local waters, season by season. That habit of honest reporting never stopped.
The community has grown, the database is fuller now. The core stayed the same: we verify every report before it goes live, and we track what's actually being caught, not what people wish they'd caught.
A catch report only appears in our database after we confirm the species, weight, water and date. No exaggeration, no hearsay.
We cap group reports at five anglers per outing, because bigger groups mean less reliable data. Smaller groups mean better observations about what's actually taking the bait.
We post catch sizes and conditions exactly as they are. There's no point sugar-coating a slow day or a tough bite—you deserve to know what to expect on local waters.
