지난 1월 설 연휴 전 때늦은 휴가 막바지 쯤에 다녀온 화천 산천어축제 사집입니다.                                  
이런 지역 축제는 휴일에 가면 사람에 치여 볼일 못보는게 대부분이라 일부러 평일에 다녀왔어요.                      
                                                                                                                
9천명까지 산천어 낚시가 가능하다고 하는데 지난 주말에 2만여명이 왔다라고 들어서                                  
평일에 가면서도 조금 긴장을 했더랬습니다. ㅎㅎ;;                                                                
                                                                                                                
화천 군청을 목적지로 하여 차를 몰아 서울에서 2시간 정도 걸렸던거 같습니다.                                      
화천 군청 옆 초등학교 주차를 하고 근처 산천어 축제장으로 발길을 ㄱㄱㅆ~                                          
                                                                                                                
곳곳에 안내도가 있어서 그리 길 찾기가 어렵지 않았지만 지도를 잘못봐서 반대방향으로 갔다가 다시 왔다는 얘기가..-_-
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
입장권을 사고 낚시대(별매)를 갖고 낚시터 안으로 들어갑니다.                                                      
도착했을때가 오후 3시 정도쯤이었는데 예상대로 평일에도 사람이 엄청 많았습니다.                                  

                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
보이는 구멍 중 맘에 드는 곳에 자리를 잡으면 됩니다.                                                              
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
견지낚시에 루어낚시라 별 장비가 필요없더군요.                                                                    
다만 얼음 위라 발이 금세 시려워집니다.                                                                          
등산화 내지는 방한화가 꼭 있어야 겠더라구요.                                                                    
그런 신발 없으면 깔판이라도 준비해야 할 듯 했어요.                                                              
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
정말 잡히나 궁금해했었는데 근처에서는 슝~슝~ 잘도 잡아냅니다.                                                    
근처에서 일가족이 낚시를 하는데 정말 잘 잡더군요.                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
초딩도 잡는데...흑;;; 좌절에 빠질 즈음에 드디어 한마리 낚았습니다.                                              
바늘이 배에 꽂힌게 정말 낚았어요. -_-                                                                            
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
못 잡으면 어쩌나 했는데 다행이 한마리 잡았네요. ㅎㅎ                                                            
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
운도 지지리 없는 놈 같으니..나한테 잡히다니..^^;                                                                
대신 맛있게 먹어주마!                                                                                            
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
7시 정도에 폐장인데 하도 발이 시려워서 6시 정도 철수를 했습니다.                                                
저멀리 얼곰이성과 마스코트들이 보입니다.                                                                        
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
잡아온 고기는 근처에서 회나 구이로 먹을 수 있습니다.                                                            
한마리 뿐이라 회보다는 구이가 낫겠다 싶어 구이장으로 갔어요.                                                    
불이나 철망도 구매해야 한다는데 워낙 사람이 많아서 예전 분들이 쓰던거 그냥 써도 되더라구요.                      
생선 칼집내고 소금 치고 호일에 쌓는거 해서 천원인가 이천원 낸거 같습니다.                                        
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
생선이 익을 동안 컵라면 준비                                                                                    
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
1500원씩이었는데 축제 치곤 안 비싸다란 생각이 들더군요.                                                          
행사 자원봉사분들도 친절하고 정이 넘치셔서 기분 좋았습니다.                                                      
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
산천어 굽고 있는데 옆에서 남는거라고 한마리 주고 가셨어요. ㅜㅠ乃                                                
참고로 잡은 물고기는 3마리만 반출할 수 있다고 하네요.                                                            
100마리 잡으면 97마리는 다 먹고 가야 합니다. -_-;;                                                              
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
겨울 날씨에 뜨끈한 컵라면 최고였네요.                                                                            
마이 훼이버릿 육개장사발면                                                                                      
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
미니 푸라면도 맛있었습니다.                                                                                      
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
어느덧 산천어 구이도 다 완서이 되었습니다.                                                                      
사실 민물고기 특유의 흙냄새때문에 그리 즐기지 않는 편인데 산천어는 정말 맛있었습니다.                            
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
비린내도 거의 없고 살도 보드랍고 야들야들합니다.                                                                
붕어처럼 가시때문에 먹을게 별로 없을까 했는데 가시도 연하고 살도 아주 많았어요.                                  
산천어 맛에 폭~ 빠져버렸어요. ㅜ ㅠ乃                                                                            
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
든든하게 요기를 하고 주변 잠깐 돌아봤어요.                                                                      
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
이름이 재밌어요. 얼곰이성 ㅎㅎ                                                                                  
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
마스코트인 얼곰이들이랍니다.                                                                                    
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                
많은 지역축제를 다닌거는 아니지만 화천 산천어 축제는 참 괜찮은 축제였던거 같습니다.                              
행사장도 깨끗한 편이고 행사도 많고 또 자원봉사자분들도 참 친절하셨거든요.                                        
                                                                                                                
구이장에 있던 자원봉사자 분들이 산천어를 또 나눠주셔서 집에 싸올수 있었습니다.                                  
덕분에 가족들도 산천어를 맛볼 수 있었지요.
