The soil on the shores in this area consists of sand and clay. There are many on the river of precipitous steeps and sandy braids, Klyazma loves to loop and wash up various interesting places. "Horseshoe" is a curious phenomenon that happens when the river suddenly turns 180 degrees and begins to flow as if in the opposite direction. Distances between the channels of the same river can reach a kilometer. Then the two streams gradually join together and form a picturesque island. This is a very beautiful picture. In addition, such places are very rich in different fish. At first they settle in them, then the place is occupied by pike perches and pikes. Then, among the washed sand scars with picturesque snags starts to fall catfish and burbot. Almost all the fish appear in the water with a clean, not overgrown vegetation bottom: perch, roach, chub, garters, scribble, etc. Over time, the "horseshoe" overgrows with grass, is swamped, but for this there must be more than a dozen years. In the early years of its existence, such a place - a real paradise for a lover of fishing.
