N°1 | Black Bream Fish

The Black breamfish, also known as Acanthopagrus butcheri, is a Sparidae. In general, its average size is 15 to 35 cm and its weight is 500 g to 2.5 kg. However, some individuals can reach up to 60 cm and 4 kg. The black bream has a lifespan of 27 years. Its spawning period is between August and January. It can have up to 300,000 spawn each season. It is not hard to catch and offer a little resistance. The Black bream has a high body and relatively compressed laterally, with symmetrically curved dorsal and ventral fins. The mouth is of moderate size compared to the body and has six incisors in the front of the lower and upper jaws. The body is covered with large scales that can be cycloid or slightly ctenoid. The head is essentially flake-free, except for the lids. A flake sheath covers the soft ray bases of the dorsal, anal and caudal fins. The Black Bream is silvery, from golden brown or bronze to grey-green on the back as well as on the sides with sometimes greenish reflections, depending on its habitat. The belly is white. The fins are all dark, with black borders. The caudal fin is often dark olive-brown.

N°2 | Bleak Fish

The Bleak fish is a Cyprinidae. In general, its average size is 10 to 15 cm and its weight is 15 to 50 g. However, some individuals can reach up to 60 g for a size of 25 cm. The bleak has a lifespan of 6-7 years. The spawning period is between April and August. It can lay up to 7000 spawns. You can fish bleak from June to September. This fish swims quite fast and offers a little resistance during the catch. The bleak is a fish with an elongated body that is very compressed laterally, allowing it to have a high velocity. The upper jaw is shorter than the lower jaw. The mouth of the bleak is oriented upwards (above), a typical character of fish that seek their food on the surface. The caudal fin is strongly indented and the caudal peduncle is thin. The dorsal fin is inserted behind the pelvic fins and has a shorter base than the dorsal fin. Its name refers to the bright white color of its scales, which gives the bleak a metallic sheen. Its back is darker greenish-blue, its sides are silvery white and its fins are pale grey. During the breeding season, nuptial tubers appear on the backs and sides of males and their fins become orange.

N°3 | Brown Trout

The Brown Trout belongs to the Salmonidae family. According to the location, the adult size varies from 25 cm to 80 cm for 300 to 800 g. It lives for 3 to 6 years. The spawning period starts in October and end in January. The female can lay up to 4000 eggs. The fishing period is open from the second Saturday of March until the third Sunday of September. This fish is not hard to catch but the fishing needs complex skills. Depending on its environment, the brown trout have a very variable color, but the brown trout, as its name shows, is rather brown with scattered black and red spots, depending on the spawners. It has a certain mimicry according to the bottom of its living spaces since the dominant brown will become a green dress if it lives close to the banks where yellow and even sometimes silvery white will mix. It has a "useless" adipose fin between the dorsal fin and the caudal fin. The head is tapered, strong and has a powerful jaw. Its back is a pretty black or night blue.

N°7 | The African Pompano

The African Pompano belongs to the Carangidae family. The maximum size can reach up to 1.50 m, but the average size is one meter. It breeds in spring and autumn. It can be fished during the hot seasons. Like many carangidae, it is a deep and laterally compressed fish, which have the deepest point of the body between the origin of the dorsal and anal fins and the head and tail tapering on either side. The dorsal and ventral profiles are also convex, the main characteristic of the adult being its more curved head compared to the more angular head profile of African Pompano. The species has 4 to 7 spines visible in the first dorsal fin, followed by a single spine and 18 to 20 soft rays in the second dorsal fin. The anal fin has two spines followed by 15 or 16 soft rays, while the pectoral fin is long and curved. The skin of the fish appears flake-free, but has tiny, embedded scales scattered over the body. The lateral line has a strong and moderately long dorsal arch, with a posterior section of 12 to 30 scales. Juvenile with filamentous rays at the anal and dorsal fins. Juveniles are characterized by their "spinning" appearance, characterized by filaments dragging anal and dorsal fins that retract with age. During maturation, the species also becomes more elongated and more similar to other types of jacks. The body is a silvery blue metallic to blue-green above, being the darkest on the head and upper shoulders, while the underside is more silvery. Juveniles have 5 chevron-sha

Top fishing techniques

N°1 | Boat Fishing for Bass

Where do you fish bass by boat? The undeniable advantage of boat fishing for sea bass is that it is possible to explore stations that are inaccessible from the shore and to change them quickly. Indeed, to succeed in your trip, it is essential to prospect because, at the rhythm of the tide, some stations are full of bass while others are deserted. Flush rocks, whitewater and tormented areas, gullies, breaks in the bottom relief, wrecks, oyster and shellfish beds, and estuaries are generally suitable areas for sea bass capture. In order to identify strategic points, a trick as old as the world consists simply to fish on hunts! If you see seabirds diving in the distance or if you see small fish caught from a sudden frenzy and jumping to the surface, it is certainly the ideal signal: the bass may be attacking its prey there. But beware, there is no question of entering the hunts (you would risk scaring the bar), stop your boat upstream instead.

N°2 | Squid fishing with jigs

Very popular, squid is as good on the plate as it is on your line. Indeed, as a true bait of choice, it has the particularity of attracting a large variety of very beautiful fish. For boat fishing, the ancestral and universal technique of vertical jigging is one of the most popular. It is most often practiced in drift with lightweight equipment that is easy to handle.

N°3 | Cast fishing with dough

Cast fishing with dough, a great technique to tease the roaches and tenches in the pond.

N°4 | Jig fishing or Cast fishing for mackerel

Mackerel evolve in schools. The challenge is to find the benches. A seagull bite may eventually help you, but the easiest way is to use a sonar. Mackerel move to a depth that varies with water temperature, weather conditions and water transparency. The sonar unit will therefore help you to identify how deep they are moving. In general, mackerel will be found on the surface in calm weather and when the water is clear enough. On the contrary, when the sea is rough, the latter will tend to descend between two waters, or even into deep waters. Once the bank is spotted, you should approach it as discreetly as possible and let yourself drift in such a way as to pass through it (you will turn off the engine, especially if the fish are on the surface). You will let your submachine gun down and animate it in a jigsaw. This means that you will make more or less wide movements with your rod in order to raise and lower your hooks erratically. If the ban moves a little further away, you can also throw your machine gun and bring it back with a little scion blows. Vary the recovery rates and depth to maximize your chances. If the ban is on the surface (you will spot it thanks to the seagulls who will take advantage of the opportunity), opt for a quick recovery and on the surface. It is also a very fun fishing to do in a kayak.

N°5 | Bass trolling

Trolling is an ancestral method of prospecting large areas and has the advantage of being one of the most effective ways to catch sea bass. From your boat, it can be practiced by hand or with a rod. Discover tips and tricks that will definitely increase your chances to catch this famous and popular fish!

N°6 | How to fish for sole at sea?

Fishing for sole is not simple because this is a really coveted flatfish. It is caught for its tender and fragrant flesh. Its maximum size can reach 70 cm with a current size of 25 to 35 cm. The sole lives at a depth of 130 meters in sandy and muddy bottoms. In March, it gets as close to the coast as possible and returns to deeper water in early November. It is found in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, from the south of Norway to Senegal, and in almost all of the Mediterranean Sea. The sole doesn't like the cold as much as we do. It breeds between February and April of each year and remains very hungry at night. The sole has a powerful sense of smell that helps it to feed itself. Worms, crustaceans, are part of his weekly diet.
