Sava 20 - accumulation lake, former Vrbina

Fishing family Brežice

The Brežice HPP reservoir was created due to the newly built Brežice HPP and is located on the site of the former Vrbina gravel pits. A carp weighing 37.5 kg was caught in the accumulation lake. He was caught and released in April 2020.

The district stretches from 1000 m below the Krško Nuclear Power Plant (border with RD Brestanica Krško) to 400 m above the Brežice HPP. Within the district, there is a competition route (the section on the left bank of the accumulation lake between the two concrete piers), where only catch and release fishing is allowed.
