They asked me where my secret points were?
They asked me when the best tide was?
I think, there should be much more important factor to the lure-fishing.
Match the bait
I think, probably, many beginners of the lure-fishing misunderstand "Match the bait".
They tried to match the colour and shape of the lure to the bait.
But they didn't try to match the motion of the lure to the behavior of the bait.
I caught a small Queenfish by BOMBER LONG 15A/Fire Tiger (The chartreuse) at Lee Point Rocks last Sunday.
Normally, Queenfish likes very fast retrieving of the lure.
My method was different from normal one.
Weather: Sunny day
Water: Very, very clear in the dry season
Target bait in the dry season: Longtong
Longtong is green in colour.
Longtong normally is floating on the water.
My choice of the lure: BOMBER LONG 15A
Colour of the lure: Fire Tiger (The chartreuse)
Action: Deadly slow retrieving and Twitching
As a result,
Probably, this green-colour BOMBER looked a Longtong to Queenfish.
And,
I caught a very small Barramundi tonight.
It's very cold and windy.
I saw that the other anglers caught some whitings on the sand beach.
My choice of the lure: SQUIDGY FISH
Colour of the lure: SILVER FOX
Action: Slow retrieving and pause
As a result,
Probably, this SQUIDGY FISH/SILVER FOX looked a Whiting to this small Barramundi on the sand beach.
