Take them near the fishfarms kev there are vopi and sawrell.I prefer using tumbrell but shrimps will do if you don't have.If you wanne have fun use a pole.

Today caught some nice vopi and sawrell.Caught 46 very nice sized and my friend 32 and a young boy 21.Nearly all on poles.We had some kind of ray possibly a sting ray,it was very very nice sized comming under the boat and once even came trying to take my friends float.We decided to give a try with a big piece of tumbrell but it managed to brake the line.Most possibly even a tuna took a bait we used on a heavy duty rod but obviosly it broke the line.Was a nice experience.

Did the young boy take the bait or was he foul hooked?

Both xlukkajr the long type and the flat one.If you will be going don't use a thick line and you'll notice the difference because there was an old guy next to us and only managed to catch 2.
