Kayakims catch report for 20/07/14

Hello! This catch report is going to be a rather short one cause we didn't actually catch very much haha. But it was still a good day out on the sea, and we managed to catch our first ever Mozambique Sea Catfish. I think other than that we only caught one flower crab on hook.

Baits used where liver and dead prawns. The liver attracted tons of crabs but no fish. Dead prawns seem the best so far.

Rigs used where Running ball.

Here are the pictures!

Meow!

This type of catfish can easily grow up to 3kg, and they put up a really amazing fight. Don't under estimate these catfish, they are a totally different ball game from the usual eel-tails that we catch. The one shown in the picture was only 1kg and it made my reel scream, super fun. I cant imagine hooking into a 3kg one, hoho might even be able to pull my kayak along.

Here is a video of abel fighting one afew days later. Only managed to get the end of the fight, but check out that bend!

MOZAMBEEEEEEKKKKK!!!!

So far we have observed they tend to be found directly under the blue barrels. Maybe because there are tons of mussels stuck on the under side of the barrels providing food. They also bite in the evening around 6pm. Dead prawns seem the most effective for us but we have seen other kayak anglers use some sort of meat and caught 3kg plus catfish, still haven't figured out how they did it though. Need to gain more experience. 

Another fish crossed off our list, still trying to aim for chermin and kims on a kayak. Also another personal goal of mine is to get a flathead cause it looks cool haha. Maybe once we become better we can head over to ubin side and maybe get some GT's too. 

Hope to get out on the sea again soon! Do check out our other kayak catch reports too! Have a good day everyone.
