Wintering pits of semi-passable and river fish on the Lower Volga have historically had a protected status that prohibits any fishing in their waters. The wintering period is important in the life of semi-migratory and river fish, and directly affects the formation of their stocks. The process of pit formation in the Volga Delta is continuous. At the same time, some of the pits lose their fishing significance over time, while others, newly formed, on the contrary, have mass accumulations of fish, especially in the pre-winter and winter periods. The aim of the work was to study the structure of the fish population in the deep-water section of the river-a potential wintering pit. The seasonal and spatial dynamics of the species composition of the fish population, their concentrations in the pit and in the adjacent riverbed are shown. It is noted that the studied area is a typical wintering pit of the Volga river Delta, where common catfish Silurus glanis (Linnaeus, 1758), carp Cyprinus carpio carpio (Linnaeus, 1758) and walleye Sander lucioperca (Linnaeus, 1758), which form the basis of research (control) catches (more than 90%), lie for the winter. High indicators of the relative number of fish were observed throughout the study period, which indicates a high productivity of the deep-water object, in terms of the formation of pre-winter and winter concentrations, which is associated with favorable conditions for wintering semi-passable and river fish (depth, flow rates, etc.). The Pit meets the developed ichthyological criterion and is a place of mass concentrations of fish suitable for wintering. In order to preserve and restore the resource potential of the Lower Volga, the winter pit on the Yellow river should be recommended for inclusion in the List of winter pits of the fishing Regulations for the Volga-Caspian fisheries basin (Astrakhan region). The protected status of the site will allow you to remove the winter pit from the fishing zone, including Amateur fishing, preventing its looting in the future

The article discusses changes in the procedure for organizing work on the development of proposals for amendments to the rules of fishing in accordance with the order of the Federal Agency for Fisheries dated February 18, 2020 No. 85 “On the organization of work in the Federal Agency for Fisheries on the development of proposals for amendments to the rules of fishing”. It is noted that the peculiarity of the fishing rules as a regulatory document is the possibility of prompt amendments to them aimed at forming an optimal fishing regime that ensures the stability of commercial catches and the conservation of aquatic biological resources. The algorithm for making changes is clearly spelled out: sending proposals from state authorities, organizations, public associations, citizens to the territorial administration of Rosrybolovstvo, making proposals in tabular form with the position of the territorial administration, considering proposals at meetings of the biological section of the Scientific Council of the Fisheries Research Institute, reviewing and coordinating proposals with the structural divisions of Rosrybolovstvo, preparation of the draft order by the Ministry of Agriculture and further approval procedure and approval in the form prescribed by law. A prerequisite for the approval procedure for proposals received to amend the rules of fishing is their scientific analysis, which allows, even at the stage of working out the issue, to filter out proposals that do not take into account the norms of the current fisheries legislation or negatively affect aquatic biological resources. The proposed version of the order allows at all stages of the preparation of amendments to the rules of fishing to take into account the interests of all interested parties as much as possible: scientific organizations, regulatory structures, citizens, authorities, the tourism industry.
