Hi there, I?ve been a member in this forum for two week now and I really like this forum! What I really like is that everyone is open and the pros helping us beginners.

I used to go fishing and spearfishing a few years ago but now I am back again. I tried fishing (coast casting) but I didn?t have luck yet! However I enjoy mostly spearfishing! This weekend I am going to Gozo and hopefully I will get some fish from there :) Will show you my catch if I get any!!

So wish me luck ? will post something later on next week?

Why do fish make men go crazy?

Nice Bream jon, for the Maltese waters, it's a nice one.  :o :o :o

The biggest I had caught was of 4.5kg but if I remember SimonG had caught bigger. I hear ed that they had being caught around Malta from around 2 weeks. Willing to find some of them because it's nice to improve technique with them.
