Hi, guys!
This trip was planned before the march one, I want to tell about it. The trip was rather successful , there was quite enough fish, the only minus is the size was not too big (I?d like bigger), but I?m very pleased with this fishing. Because of heat we had to separate the fishing for morning and evening, we left the port at 5-30 in the morning till 10 and in the evening from 15-30 to 18-30. There were plenty of memorable moments. According the results the biggest GT was 32 kg. There was one more - around 20 kg, the rest were not more than 10 kg. On average we caught around 10-12 fish a day. A couple of days were marked with plenty of fish outs but no attacks. I don?t know the reason for that, tried to experiment, changed the colors and forms of the poppers. We tried stick baits but the result was the same - the fish refused to attack. The brightest and memorable moments:
1?) - out and attack of popper by red bass - striking, pushing a few meters - the fish escapes - after 2-3 jerks the same red bass jumps out and follows the popper attacking it as on repeat - I strike and take out the guy.
2?) - we approach the teeming spot of the eating predator - me and my friend throw the rods at the same time - poppers fall down simultaneously - after 1-2 jerk we have bites - I take out red bass - he takes out GT. It remains a puzzle for me how two different predators have one feed spot?
3?) - we found and active predator - for 10 minutes I managed to take out 4 GTs! They were not big but I liked such an active fishing! I saw such activity for the first time in my life.
