The water was clear this morning but became very murky around lunchtime.
This small pink squidgy fish is a technique for catching a Threadfin salmon.
I used this technique for catching a target fish today because I saw many Jelly prawns.
As a result,
Even this size, this Bluesalmon has already been an adult.
Very good eating fish!

I'd like to introduce you our best teacher of catching Threadfin salmon.
Mr. Mark West
Highly experienced professional fishing guide
Highly experienced lure/fly fishing guide
Mr. Mark West taught me as follows,
Threadfin salmon live in the deep water near the mudflats.
A lot of Jelly prawn has been flushed out with the flood.
Threadfin salmon feed on tiny Jelly prawn on the flats.
They chase Jelly prawn along the shallow flats in the rainy season.
They use their whiskers to feel vibrations of Jelly prawn on the bottom.
I must cast a lure into the certain point on the shallow mudflat.
He caught 26lb up Threadfin salmon on fly before.
When we meet a pink water with a shoal of jelly prawn, he recommends me something pink for catching Threadfin salmon in colour.
You could see Mr. Mark West at Fishing and Outdoor World .
