Is it good for barracuda this time of the year ?

[kempy]

im up for it well and truley should be great

[Jonathan]

I'm interested too. As to whether it's a good time, I'm not so sure, I was only catching 1 or 2 or sometimes even 0 each time I went for them over the past few weeks. Which location would you suggest? My boat is based at Msida but I can make arrangements to get to other locations if you suggest elsewhere.

Yes it is Gottie, however they seem to start getting less frequent at August.

[Simon G]

at the moment there are huge shoals of the toothed buggers on the west coast of the island

[kempy]

yesits very true we caught 4 in bout 1 hr from my friends boat last night.....

[gottie]

What do I have to use as lure ?

[kempy]

we were using live bait lachi and vopi but since that day they seem to have all stopped catch a single one now

[Simon G]

try getting the live bait in midwater or just a couple of feet off the bottom thats where i am seeing them

Great idea Simon G! Would it be a shore or boat competition?

[Simon G]

i will check with skip and see what we can organize

[SPITEC]

If it's from land I'm in aswell.

[suffrun]

count me in...........it sounds interesting especially since I never fished for cudas.
If its going to be a boat tournament may I suggest we pick St.Paul's bay/Bugibba
area for the simple reason that I have a small boat.

if it's a shore fishing event i'll turn up.  Provided i'm not working ... already been advised that i can forget any sort of leave from work this summer
