Welcome mrk274 I always tought that when people go for kahli that way they use dud tal-kahli!
FISHING IS THE BEST HOBBY AND IT'S GREAT FOR RELAXING

My grandfather was a great fisherman for saddled bream - pity he passed away before he could teach me! He used both bread paste (without adding anything) and even dud ta' l-alka. What mrk said is exactly what he used to say that you have to do in order to catch this remarkable fish. Although I am only spearfishing now, I would really love to fish for saddled bream from the shore when the weather conditions are right - however it's such a delicate job that I never get down to trying it...
Man will never be able to stop time but he can get very close by freediving.

Yes spitec i use bread altough dud ta l-alka is d best bait for her. But since d other fisherman that are near me are fishing with bread its not a problem. The problem will arise if there will be other fishermans near your location that sarts fishishing with dud ta l-alka near you, because it will all go near them and you wouldnt be able to catch one

Kahli tal punent hija meta tibda taqbad il kahli fil hin li tkun nizla ix-xemx. Dak il-hin ix-xemx tkun fil punent.

Hi all. I have a few question as regards kahli. For example is kahli a fast growing fish? In other words, how long will it take to grow from a small size[domna] to a medium size [zabrott] to a kahlija. I have more questions on this very clever fish. I am sure we will have some answers from the well informed forum members. Till next time I thank you and will be waiting for some answers

Reference is taken from Fishbase.com. It is said that in approx. 4 years the kahlija will be fully grown.

More kahli-related questions. This time it is the condition of the sea ...comonly known as "galbu" and "tramuntana" ... north wind .Any explanation as to why when the wind is north, the sea foam,"rima/galbu" opens up very quickly ,irispective of the height of the wave? this in turn will make the kahli impossible to catch.....as if it looses it's interest and stop chasing.
This condition of the sea is effective also when there is the swell. Ex. The sea has got an easterly swell and the wind direction is North. Although the swell continue to come easterly, the effect the wind direction has on the sea is imediatley noticed. It sounds complicated, but can anyone enlightens me please?

In my expierince, first of all when one fish for kahli "go rima" in the surf, there are particular place which are called "lokijiet" (not WC). These special places are formed, that when the sea hits the rocks it will form surf. If conditions are not good, foam will be formed but not surf. Sometimes as you said the surf will disappear quikly and will not give the chance to the kahli to go up to the surface hiding in the surf. Thats where galbu comes in. Yes the north wind tends to open the surf quikly and clears the water very soon.

There are these lokijiet that they have thier nickname of the winds, e.g. ta Xlokk or tal-Majjistral. These normally will be the winds that are needed to be to be able to fish in these lokations.

Thank you for our explanations. When I was young my uncle used to take me with him everywhere. From delimara to Ghajn Tuffieha. As amatter of fact he never used to tell me where we will be going the next morning . It all depended on the wind direction. And he really seldom was wrong on his choice. One thing fishermen for kahli had in common was that they did not talk a lot about their catches and where they caught the fish . It was very secretive. But i will never forget the walk about 45 mins going in Ghajn Tuffieha, not knowing if you will find somebody there ahead of you on the lok. But believe me it was well worth it. Next time perhaps someone can expand a little on the Sajd Tal Punent
