Mtkvari River (Mtskheta)

About the Mtkvari at Mtskheta

The Mtkvari (Kura) River flows through Georgia’s ancient capital, Mtskheta. This stretch offers convenient shore fishing for anglers based in Tbilisi who want a quick session without a long drive.

Fishing Tips

• Float fishing with worms and bread works well for carp
• Evening sessions are most productive in summer heat
• Avoid fishing immediately after heavy rain — the river muddies quickly
• Respect local swimmers and tourists near the old town bridge

Regulations Note

Check current national regulations for river fishing licenses before your trip. Some stretches may have seasonal restrictions.
