Fishing prep on a calm sandy riverbank in rural Russia

In a riparian environment with a sandy bank and calm water, a man wearing a black t-shirt and camouflage-patterned trousers is crouched on the shore, engaged in preparing fishing tackle. He is positioned to the left of the frame, with his back slightly towards the viewer, focusing on a small object in his hands. Beside him is a white bucket containing dark material, likely bait. Two fishing rods are visible: one in the foreground, with a red reel, is planted in the sand. The second fishing rod is further back, in the water, with a line extending into the river. A fishing net is submerged in the water to the right of the second fishing rod. The sky above displays a gradient of soft blue and pastel pink hues, indicating either sunrise or sunset. The background features a distant tree line and a gentle slope of earth along the opposite bank of the river. The overall scene depicts a serene fishing excursion by a river.
