Hello, I am Kenneth and I really enjoy fishing, i have gone fishing with my father since i was young but all we used to catch were small fish from the shore, and maybe some bigger fish with the reel, now we would like to try new places were to fish and catch bigger and more challinging fish, we do not use a boat we fish from the shore. Any one can help me on this query please, tanks in advance.  :D

Hi Kenneth,

Welcome to the forum. Check out the inshore fishing areas of the forum as this discusses the type of fishing you are into. I am sure plenty will help you there.

Regards,

A forka is a Small square (normally about 8x8cm) floating rectangle made of geblo or cork, with 2 or more hooks attached to it on a short line. Basically the trick is to attach 2 small blocks of bread to the hooks and let the forka float on its own. Kahli will then attack the bread, and get caught to the forka. You then chase the forka with the boat. Ocasionally, you don't see the forka anymore......or maybe you see it running under the boat.

The most important thing is that there is no line in the water. Kahli in my opinion is the most intelliget fish out there. If they see a line, they won't bite.

Teosbe - If you don't mind I will use your post to ask Ciappinu some  questions on same subject.

1) Should the bread be died bread?
2) What size of line should be used?
3) What size of hook.

This is also new to me and it sound rather interesting.

Thanks

1) I like to use something between dry and not.

2) 30mm should be ok

3) With regards to hooks, I'm not an expert in sizes. I think it's a size 10 though.



I personally use a different technique where I have 6 or 8 hooks and I place the forka on top of a sandwich. Then all the hooks go in the sides of the sandwich. I'll try and take a picture so you can understand it better.
