Now thats a good fish, first catch Ravas, reminds me of the good old days in Bombay

Great catch there.
Got to love those shore caught beauties.

BTW, can some one tell if Threafin and Ravas are the same.
Are they similar to the Bluefish in the northeast coast of USA.
I used to hear stories about huge shoals of saltwater salmon in Chennai coast, not any more though
Also do they have razor sharp teeth, that are small but arranged closely and can snap fingers pretty easily?

Good catch ...must be Fine eating too....nothing like Ravas....Lure.....The Threadfin and Ravas same fish.....the ravas doesnt have teeth but very abrasive lips just like coarse sand paper....no they cannot snap fingers.

Hi,

Great catch. First saltwater catch and that too a Threadfin is making us envious. Lucky to catch that one. Happy fishing.

Hi Maruthu,

The threadfin and rawas are both the same. The blue fish is something different though both have simlar feeding habits and are good fish to catch and readily take lures when they are feeding. The so called saltwater salmon we hear about on the east coast is also the same. Yes they have small serrated teeth which some times easly cut a mono so a fluoro is a better option , though using a wire is also common. No they do not snap fingers the bite is similar to a snapper bite painful but bearable.

cheers,

Jeen

Jeen,

Hey Sarath,

Is that your first catch??? Are you sure?? If YES, May GOD bless you in your angling addiction. I'll pray that your family supports you in your angling expeditions.

Cheers and tight lines.

Hey Sarath, Great Catch.

Nice catch Sarath, looks like the shimano FX4000 FB reel is a lot tougher than I thought

Hi,
Thanks..
No doubt Bops thanks, Shimano FX4000FB was working great and very sturdy, I was able to land a 8Kg barra with the same.
