Manenkov's press secretary Irina Shever She stated that her boss had not caught such a large amount of fish alone and that the rich catch was due to the large company.
"Sergey Petrovich never goes fishing alone. He has a large group of like-minded people, traveling in Buran boats. And what Sergey Petrovich films, of course, wasn't caught by him alone; he did it all with his friends. So, it's all very simple. Besides, he has a long-standing tradition: the fish he and his friends bring back is always given to our priest. There are families under his care. These are representatives of our religion, large families. They happily bring back their catch, and it's a huge celebration. Believe me, nothing comes from greed."- said Shever.
