Summer line fishing. In summer many fishermen fish using a float line, sinker-float, and other methods. Line fishing is one of the most popular methods, when you can fish from a boat or a bank using a light and resilient fishing rod. This method is widely used to fish for roaches, breams, perches, and other freshwater fishes. The stamp shows summer-time fishing from a boat and a river-bank, as well as the fishing equipment.

"Circle" fishing. Fishing using a "circle", i.e. a large float with a rod in the middle. The float is placed on the water surface, the fishing-line and the sinker with a triple hook with a sprat go under water. When a fish takes the sprat, the float turns upside down. The lower part of the float is painted white, and the upper - red. The stamp features an episode of circle fishing, with the floats and a pike, a perch, and a zander.
