great show

Gill Saheb,

No doubt woderful show!

Please give details of earth worm, is it some especial breed? How do you put them on hook?

Any pic of that too?



Anoop

Really good show. You guys must have had a great time huh...

nice pictures.......

FineBaba
its not a special breed of earthworm

use it like this

Very nice fishes taken mate.

Fine Baba there just normal earth worms. In Pakistan its one of the oldest and most prefered bait amongst anglers.

Over a period of time other bait usage has also increased but earthworms are the numero uno bait.

As Fakhir has posted the pic u just thread the earthworm on.

i disagree with Fakir and Shaphan. whole the hook should be covered with earth worms. you can use 2 or three worms at a time. more worms on the hook means more fish.

Why are the fins so ragged? Were they left in a keeper net?

yes. fish were in keeping net. i caught more then my expectations ans there was only a single net with me.

Gill Sb Sir jeee,

what i was implying is that u need to thread the worm on, not that u need to leave the hook empty.

kya baat hai gill sahab.... maza aa gaya dekh ke..

three worms on single hook ? how ?
please explain me

Gill Saab,

Please explain what was the rig used.

How were the hooks attached to the main line?

some beauties there. thanks for posting.
regards

shah ji

i will tell you next year when you will join me at panjnad. we use 4 to 5 worms some time. aisey to "theila" nahin pakrha >>>>>:roll:

Gill Ji,

Pls tel us which size and type of hook have you used. As far as we know theres numerous speicies of Earth Worms exist.

Have you ground baited the area before casting ? what was your ground bait? Worms? what floaters have you used?


Rgds,
Anoop

i use 1.0 Norway made hooks. and 20 lbs line on shakspare rod. yes i do ground bait but recipie is secret.
we have two types of earth worms here in Pakistan. i dont know there acutual species name but we call them "Kacha" and "Paka"
and i often use paka.

Mr Gill

we both are live at Punjab province so I have knowledge about Punjab.
Punjab (Pakistan) have Common earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris).

"Paka" mean old its color is brown




and "kucha" means young its color is redish, physically its slim in size

What type of fishes are those in first two pics

******* Edited, apologies to any members whose sentiments may have been hurt **********

And what would that mean???? Would you care to shedd some light on your comment????????

both the pics are of same fish, this is "CATLA". pride of any angler and every angler has a wish in his life that once he catch Catla and Mahsheer.

yes , i agreed with gill sb, its very easy to put 3 worms on 1 hook

ibrar

Gill Sahib,
Look like all the fishes there must be very hungry, all of them taking earth worm.

Ali.

Unfortunately i read the comments posted by my friend (salmonmani) before deletion. for time being i became sad and decided that i should delete my whole post but later on decided that fiver fingers in a hand are not equal in size and shape.i request to all friends to remember that we are only anglers and we have no political, social or any other thought except improving our skill for this royal hobby.
i request the management that please allow my friend(salmonmani) to post the comments and i hope that he will keep in his mind the rules of game.

This forum is home to anglers from all over the world and I will not allow any comments of a trouble making nature from any member. I hope all concerned keep this in mind before posting.

Based on advocategill's request I am removing the ban on Salmonmani in the hope that he will follow the rules of this forum going forward.

Ali

Peace Love and Harmony to all.

hey pal
great thought.........
But you missed one thing
wish BIG FISHES for all as well

I agree with BOPS, Gill and MK,

Thats what I love about Indian Angler. We need to be the change agents.

Fish on mates

Let's get on with fishing chat guys...

Looks like peace is in progress

Do you guys use a lot of wide gap hooks there?

These look like Kahle hooks. Had mixed experience with them myself. FR what is your view on them?

Wonderful catch and beautiful clear pictures. Keep it up.

As i was going thru the post i read that IA chief forgave Salmonmani........what a nice feeling.
Hope we all had that forgiving power...............God Bless everyone and May 2009 bring peace and harmony to all.

Ronald
