INDIANANGLER

Well it is not that i have report some great success or any thing like that in fact almost never posted this but then i remembered a good friend who told me big or small you should share all the fishing experiences because ultimately you caught a fish so here is the story.
The boys called me up from Madh to join them for a season of night fishing as i believe few days ago Abby and Madhur both caught some fish and lost some from the same vicinity (location can not disclose because of secrecy oath)
We reached there and after settling down with some nice bait fishing set up for the in coming tide I was almost loosing the hope but then in 45 min caught three of them some nice size breams and then the next day the boys pulled up some nice quantity of cat fish and me with just one of the breams again .
Unfortunately only the second day Madhur got the camera so i am able to put only one of the fish pics hope Madhur you have taken few more of the cat fish .or please ask one of the boys to mail it too me if they have taken some
cheers

HI Partner,

Good show Rajatda... Keep it comming...

rajatmukherje.... nice show

Hi Dada,
Here's one pic from the previous week.

Regards,
Madhur.

Abbey with an MJ and a Grouper (I think its a rock cod
, but I may be wrong)





PS. Its about time for Abbey to join IA.

BTW Both the fish were taken from the same spot... In fact Abbey lost a really beast of a fish that same night.
In spite of a properly set drag He got spooled out in no time.Finally he was in waist deep water and me following him with a flash light.After a few minutes of pursuit he managed to reel in some line and we could see a big shape in some distance it was pitch dark so we couldn't identify the specie.And as we narrowed the distance to about 20mtrs the fish took one last run and the line became loose.At that point we were cursing the line for the failure.Finally we found, that it was the hook that gave way.

so much for the one that got Away! hahah...

guys now i know what you guys meant when you said it is a rocking spot I am dying to go back please lets do that ASAP This time we will be more prepared and Aby i thought you have registered already

There are lots of options.
you could try:
Surface lures like poppers or spooks.
Unweighted soft plastics with the hook burried inside the bait.
Very shallow divers like the Manns 1- range, Various models by Maria, or darter stle plugs made by (amongst others) Yo-Zuri - like these http://www.yo-zuri.com/Products/ProdMag/MagDarter.htm
All will work over of through the rocks without getting hung up.

conrats madhur, rajat
looks like you guys had a blast!

Guys I am back again and this time the story is of a big party at Madh and some awesome catches. We decided to give the fishing in Mumbai another go the idea off course was to have good time apart from fishing ( as yesterday was the full moon night) we axpected some good game . Ali and myself joined the gang in madh and we started in the evening the result was a blast here are some pics of the fishes caught and as usual some of the evening.
Alis Grouper the first fish of the evening
