Novotroitskoe Reservoir, reservoir in Russia
Novotroitskoe Reservoir is a large body of water in Izobilnensky District created on the Bolshoy Egorlyk River, stretching approximately 11 kilometers in length and covering an area exceeding 11 square kilometers. Maximum depths reach 18 meters at certain points, with average depths around 3 to 4 meters throughout.
The reservoir was created in 1952 through the construction of a dam on the Bolshoy Egorlyk River, originally built to supply water to local settlements and protect against drought periods. Over time it evolved from a purely functional infrastructure into a popular destination for fishing and recreation.
The reservoir serves as a vital water source for surrounding communities and has become a gathering place for local fishermen and visitors seeking outdoor time. Nearby villages depend on this body of water for irrigation and livestock, making it central to daily life in the region.
Access is straightforward and infrastructure along the shores is well-developed with picnic areas, shaded rest spots, and designated swimming zones. Several rest facilities and equipment rental services operate nearby, making both fishing trips and swimming convenient for visitors.
At a location called Goryachka, warm water flows into the lake and enriches it with oxygen, causing fish to concentrate in this area unusually. This natural warm water spring makes the spot the best fishing zone and regularly attracts experienced anglers seeking reliable catches.
