Catch and release

baghira,no one targets small groupers/dentici/pagri/pagell.these are by catches. when i say i eat what is eatable i would mean that the fish can be eaten without causing harm or that the size would be adequate so as to be practical to eat. some fish,even if they are large enough to eat i would still not eat them as they possess to many bones like lacci and gringijiet so these go back. i was depicted as some serial killer just because i was honest enough to say that i would eat my own fish instead of buying them. im no hypocrite. i dont have to be.and i dont pose as a saint as some members of this forum tend to do.

agree with you to some extent. (without referring to nobody in particular)

if i have been labeled as a serial killer just because i eat the fish i catch should'nt those who eat fish roe or caviar be called abortionists! lol!

whatever you say clad......... but nobody said you're a serial killer......... don't imply that we said things we never said.

...... maybe i'm wrong

the fish i manage to catch are rather small, just above the minimum - brieqex and gharajjes, mostly. what goes into catching bigger fish - the time of the day i.e. if you fish at dawn/dusk or night, bigger fish are swimming around, but they vanish at noon (wouldn't they still be in the sea?!) is it the type of bait you use? or the size of hook? the distance from the land? - although some shore fishermen, as i can see from the photos, do land decent fish too.

there are many factors that lead to catching bigger fish from shore ..... terminal tackle, bait, reading and knowing the areas which comes from years of experience, different fishing rods ...... I suggest joining local fishing clubs for those who really want to improve their skills in shore fishing.

You will be amazed how much you will improve in just a year in a club!

if Parit was abolished or at least heavily restricted, than shore fishing would really catch on as there will be decent fish to land.

beleive it or not ..... from information we collect .... fish around our shores are increasing again. We are making big catches in our events like we used to do some 15 years ago.

111kgs of total fish were caught in the last 3 day KSFA tournament. That is by 24 anglers in 15 hours of fishing!
