Red River Delta Lake is located approximately 30 km from central Hanoi, in a quiet rural area close to the Red River.
Away from the traffic and crowds of Hanoi, the area offers a peaceful countryside atmosphere, fresh air and beautiful natural scenery.
The surrounding countryside provides a completely different atmosphere from Hanoi. Instead of spending the day in the city, you will enjoy fresh air, open landscapes and a relaxed fishing environment.
Fishing conditions change throughout the year according to temperature, rainfall and water conditions.
The warmer months can provide excellent opportunities for active predatory fish, while seasonal changes may affect where fish feed and how aggressively they respond to artificial lures.
Your guide will adjust the fishing strategy according to the weather, water conditions and fish activity on the day of your trip.
The main objective of this adventure is to hunt for freshwater predators using artificial lures.
