Hello BC Anglers
First at all I want to thanks Brain Kowalko for his help to complete my registration in this extraordinary Forum...
I live in Lima-Peru and as all of you, Fishing is my passion. I like to practice both: Fresh and Saltwater fishing. Major part of the year I go to the beach for Surf Fishing with a spinning rod, and sometimes on-board for some trolling. What do I look for??? I love fishing Corvinas (some kind of Weakfish or Seatrout), Lenguado (Pacific Flounders), Cabrilla (some kind of Grouper), Robalo (Snook). In winter time, I rather to go to the highlands looking for trouts...
I like to complement my fishing passion doing my homemade lures which is not common here. Almost 99.99% of sport fishermen buy their fishing stuffs. Sometimes I prepare and edit a video to publish it in my Youtube channel.
I think showing this video you will figure out the way of surf fishing that I do at the sea.
Once again, in this fishing trip I went to the beaches of Ica. Ica is located about 350Km southbound from Lima driving through a highway, and then you have to turn westbound and drive about 90km of offroad in the middle of desert until reach the ocean... My objective was to look for some Corvinas and Lenguados.
In this video, you are going to see an amazing crazy party of seabirds. They came very close to the shore in their middle of hunting-eating-time frenzy. I am sure you will love it. The sea was blue, the water was clear, no wind, and was a shiny day.
Afterwards to enjoy the show of the birds’ party, we began to fish.
You will see some casts I done from the shore and some captures I had in this wonderful day.
A special consideration for this way of fishing, is that we need to try to do long casts (as possible) to get better chances for fishing. Just to let you know, I used a 9' Surfcast rod, Van Staal Reel VS150, 30Lb braided line, and my Attila Slim which weights about 47gr (1.5oz). To reach the better places, I need to cast about 90 to 110 yards or even more, basically for two main reasons:
First, to try to drop my lures behind the seaweeds mats that are spread everywhere along the shore. It is a natural barrier and trap, and your lures, spoons, etc. can easily stay hooked to them;
Secondly, because reaching deeper waters your odds increase to find places where the Corvinas are in activity and hunting.
Well I hope you like the video, please send me your comments, they are very welcome. Also, in case you are interested to see how to do the Attila Slim, you can watch my video visiting my channel in Youtube. Have a safe fishing, Antonio
