N°1 | Plug-drift fishing for sea bream
This technique, whether practiced by boat or kayak, consists in letting yourself drift with a fairly simple setting consisting of a plug, a leaded wire with one or more hooks.
N°2 | Fishing with bombette
Bombette fishing is a technique invented by Italian fishermen to fish for trout in lakes. Although this method of fishing is still relatively unknown to some people, it is becoming more and more common nowadays. It is even used for fishing carnivores (perch, pike, pike-perch, pike-perch...) Easy to implement and requiring little preparation time, this fishing technique is perfectly suited both to beginners wishing to learn trout fishing in water bodies, and to experienced fishermen wishing to take advantage of its many possibilities. But what does this technique really consist of? What equipment is suitable for this type of fishing? Here are some useful information that will help you start fishing with a bombette in good conditions.
N°3 | The stalking fishing technique
Practised on foot, the stalking fishing is a fishing technique that can be described as mobile. As its name suggests, the principle is to prowl as discreetly as possible along the banks of rivers and streams, using natural baits such as maggot, mud worms, aquatic larvae or others to attract and track fish. Roach, perches, trout are some examples of fish that you can catch using this exciting roaming fishing technique.
N°4 | 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°5 | Surfcasting for Sole
Surfcasting, a technique practiced from beaches, dikes or rocks, consists in sending your bait hook (i.e. weighted with bait) behind the waves. Sole is mainly fished from April to October, except in Charente Maritime where you can enjoy beautiful soles all year round. Sole fishing can be practiced throughout the day, although twilight and night remain the most suitable times to catch it. The soles are therefore more present during the last two hours of the falling tide and at the beginning of the uplift as they climb onto shallow areas to hunt. The sole only gets very close to the first rollers, so you have to throw far enough from the edge to hope to catch it. Then simply place your rod on the rod holder and push it into the sand, which allows you to have a fairly high wire. This has two advantages: - The wire normally passes over the waves and algae they carry, so the assembly does not move. -This prevents the fisherman or any other person from catching the line and ruining the fishery. Once the rod is launched, all that remains is to wait for the key indicated either by the sound of the brake that starts or by the sound of a bell that is fixed at the top of the rod. As the sole lies on its side at the bottom of the water, wait a few seconds before lifting the fish, to make sure that the hook has definitely hooked the mouth.
N°6 | Surfcasting fishing for Sea bream
To successfully fish sea bream with the surfcasting technique, you need to know the right thing to do. Below are some tips to help.
