SPINNING |
|
Fishing with baits, better known as
SPINNING, is one of the most popular fishing technique. The
name derives from the English "to spin", due to the rotating
movement of the used bait.
This fishing technique is used to catch predatory fishes,
which are attracted by the bait's movement ans by its colour.
It's the most dynamic technique, because of the frequent
throws in search of predators. |

Defeats are not unusual, especially
because our target are very shrewd fishes, like Carangidae,
Bonities, Wahoos and Dolphinfishes.
You can fish with 3 meters lenght rods and with a 60 or 80
lb reel, as it's possible to catch also over 20 kg preys.
The used baits are Minnow, popper, skipping lures and walkin'
the dog, and also some home-made 3-4 onces prototypes. It's
better to do spinning at the dawn. |

Rock Fishing is a daily technique,
as it's not safe to go on doing it after the sunset.
It's done on a sheer position, where the oceanbed is
rocky and over 40 m deep.
Fishing with baloon is used to chase big sharks,
dolphinfishes or GT and Cableway Fishing is used to
fish in depth sharks, big moray eels and groupers. |
|
Rock Fishing's target is to chase
big preys, and, that's not a joke, big sharks have
been hooked and kept with the rod for a long time,
till we could bring them near us, as it was
impossible to raise them to take the usual picture
with them.
We use 3,96 m rods and 50 lb reels, lines are made
in nylon 0,60, held down lenghtening with a steel
terminal. |

Surfcasting is a type of fishing, which was
born in the Atlantic Ocean. It's done on the beach with rods
able to throw the terminal far away from the coast.
Surfcasting uses underwater turbolences near the coast: by
moving the oceanbed they attract grunter fishes, which attract
little and big predators..
|
|
Surfcasting could be done at any part of the
day with good results, preys are different depending on the time
and on the terminal.
In the morning and in the late afternoon you could meet L.
mormyrus, bream fishes, mullet fishes, barbles, hogfishes and
common pandoras, but in the evening, after the sunset, we use
heavier terminals to fish sorts of sharks, moray eels, and, not
seldom, Xareu and skates. |
|
|
As a variation of
Surfcasting we organize a "competition" in the late
afternoon on the beaches in front of the hotels: the shark
hunting. After every catching we measure the shark and take
the usual picture with it, then the unlucky fish will be
free again.

Who fishes the longest shark will receive a
certificate and he'll win a necklace with a shark's tooth.
You don't need much experience to do this funny type of
fishing and also children and ladies could participate,
thanks to our staff ' assistance. |
