Anguilla anguilla Spawning conditions Spawning water type Fish spawning out of the tributary area: carp, pikeperch, catfish Silurus glanis and eel No category
Blicca bjoerkna Spawning conditions Spawning migration period Every season a run of ripe white bream was observed migrating to the tributary to spawn about 2 weeks after the main migration runs of dominant cyrpinids (14-16°C). The period of multiple migration of multiple spawners, mainly bleak and bream (but also white bream and ruud). Early May-early June. Females of these species release eggs during periods of warm weather, each of which triggers a new wave. Transient period when the local movmeents takes over the spawning migration of multiple spawners. early June until mid July. The proportion of ripe individuals decreases as well as the migration rate ['May', 'June', 'July']
Blicca bjoerkna Spawning conditions Spawning water type Some species seem to be strickly dependent on the tributary zone as they were never observed reproducing in the reservoir (asp, bleak, chub and white bream), while others are facultative tributary users (roach, bream, pike, perch, rudd). No category
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Spawning migration period The bream exibited limited pre-spawning acitivty with a gradual increase of proportion of ripe individuals and low migration rate. This period was followed by the main spawning rung when the daily migration represented hundreds of individuals (13-14°C). in the same period, massive spawning of bream was recorded in the whole reservoir No data
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Spawning period duration Adult fish may remain in the river for several weeks or months and participate in multiple spawnings No data
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Spawning temperature 13-14 13.5 °C
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Spawning water type Some species seem to be strickly dependent on the tributary zone as they were never observed reproducing in the reservoir (asp, bleak, chub and white bream), while others are facultative tributary users (roach, bream, pike, perch, rudd). Generalists: fish spawning in suitable places both inthe tributary and the reservoir: bream, roach, perh, pike and ruffe No category
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Spawning release Clement weather and increased temperature stimulated further spawning of this fractionally spawning species Fractional
Abramis brama Spawning conditions Parity Many bream returned back to the reservoir after spawning while another part stayed every season in the river pools above the traps for a longer time and returned after subsequent spawning No category
Alburnoides bipunctatus Spawning conditions Spawning migration period The main migration was triggered by a similar temperature level of 12-14°C. The daily migration rate during the main wave was 10-20 chub, with one to five fish in the remaining period. No data
Alburnoides bipunctatus Spawning conditions Spawning water type This may indicate that this species uses the reservoir as a refuge for overwintering and the river for spawing and feeding during spring and summer No category
Alburnus alburnus Spawning conditions Spawning migration period The prespawning migration was rather small, the majority of fish were caught during the first migration run when the water temperature in the river reached 13-14°C. The main spawning run of cyrpinids. Last days of April and early May. Females of the roach, bleak, bream and chub strat to release eggs nearly simultaneously. nearly half of fish biomss migrates during this period. the end of this period can be defined by the absence of females releasing the eggs. prolongation of this period depends very much on weather. The usual extent is 3-7 days, but a drastic cooling can shorten the massive spawning like in 2001. Summer period with highly reduced spawning activity, mid July until august. ripe indiviudals are very rare except for bleak. Most migrating bleack are still ripe for spawning but their numbers are low ['April', 'May', 'July', 'August', 'September']

Alburnus alburnus Spawning conditions Spawning water type Some species seem to be strickly dependent on the tributary zone as they were never observed reproducing in the reservoir (asp, bleak, chub and white bream), while others are facultative tributary users (roach, bream, pike, perch, rudd). No category
Alburnus alburnus Spawning conditions Spawning release The bleak behaved like multiple spawners in the tributary of Rimov Reservoir. After the main runs, several weaker spawning runs occurred, each with decreasing strength Multiple
Aspius aspius Spawning conditions Spawning migration period The first cyprinid migrating to the tributary to spawn each year was asp. 1 March to approximatively 10 April, asp dominates in biomass and sometimes in numbers. Prespawning migration of perch, roach and bream is also apparent. ['March', 'April']
Aspius aspius Spawning conditions Spawning temperature The average water temperature in the river during asp spawning reached 7-8°C 7.5 °C

Rutilus rutilus Spawning conditions Spawning migration period The roach strated migrations also very early in the spring ; the first migration waves occurred in the first half of April. The main spawing runs of ripe individuals strated on the turn of April and May when the water temperature in the river continuously increased and reached 13-14°C. Prespawning pahse of the main cyprinid species. approximatively 10 april until 1 may. Phase after finishcing of asp spawning (all females spent)., but before the main spawning run of cyrpinids. The males of roach, bleak, bream and chub, may be active and releasing milt, but the females do not release eggs. Perch spawnig starts in this period. ['April', 'May', 'June']
