Hi Zahed,

You are right about the first being a silver grunt, and the third and fourth are gold-lined sea breams alright. The second one looks like a 'picnic sea bream' (Shaam in Arabic) to me. Nice catch anyhow.
What is you mobile number? Since we both live in Abu Dhabi, it would be nice to be able to communicate sometimes.

Thanks,

Ijlal

Hi M Zahyed ,

The first two are silver grunter . I think the bottom two are gabbath . I will leave it to our friend keyur to give a comment as my exp with fishes is only 3 months . He is the best guy to let us know if i am correct or not . The silver grunt have more tasty flesh than gabbath . Silver grunt can be grilled and baked . But gabbath should be prepared with a jucy content as the flesh tend to be soft and dry .

HI Pranab,

the last pic, is a tripod fish...very common at Maktoum, especially if you cast in the direction of creek park steps.

Will call you later, as I got some good prices for light Michelle rods on sale.
They also had Penn Special Senator trolling rods (40-60lbs) at a discounted price.
Most probably will pick up the 2 pc graphite rod as it was very cheap.

Dear Amir ,

Let me tell you i was watching cast the line at alsheef . And i am impressed by your distance . Being a newcomer you are really doing well as most of the time you crossed the rock clearance there . Just keep it up , your are improving nicely . Yes you are correct bigger fishes are away in the deep . But still decent size koffer ,nagroor and gabbath are avail able still . Check the pics i posted from the last whole weeks catch . Specially the nagroor size are quite bit in and about 2 to 2 1/2 kgs .

hi guys ,

this is for ronald and amir .

Dear ronanald and amir ,

All the above posted pics tody are on .30 line michelle 13 feet rod and all the hook size is no 6 except the black shyam which is hooked on hook size no 3 .
For the creek when ever i try for gabbath i put smaller hooks up and for shyam a big hook at the end followed with a stone about half feet below .This trick was shown to me by keyur and it really works if there is sea week or grass then the bait wont fall off .

Hi Everybody,

Shahzad and I went to Fujairah on Friday afternoon. We reached Kalba a little before sunset. The Khor looked like a wonderful place to fish but unfortunately, there was a board prohibiting fishing. We then moved in the direction of Fujairah and though the beach at Kalba looked very promising, there were no anglers so we became wary and decided to move on. Furthermore, many people were bathing on Kalba's beaches, so we decided to look for a more secluded place.

We found the place Pranab had advised earlier, after the Fujairah refinery, and decided to spend the night there. First rod was in water around 2015 hrs and during the initial phase of the receding tide, we managed to land five Dory Snapper of the biggest size we have ever seen; the fish ranged between 350 - 500 grams each except for one that was quite small and was safely released by us. We waited till we had a morning high tide, but did not get any worthwhile bites. Maybe it is the season, as the place looked to be much more promising.

All in all, it was a nice experience, and as one old friend says: "Fishing is fun, fish bonus!"

Cheers!

Hi Pranab,

I went to Mamzar park @ 5 in the evening with my guest for an hour or so. Did manage to catch one fish small about the size of your palm (I think it was a sea bream so someting like that), picture not worthwhile posting.

I guess all the bigger fishes ranaway as there were people who were jet skiing there.

hi all,
i agree with fishpals.a spellcheck is something we just cannot do without. as for boat fishing in abu dhabi,it would certainly not be worthwhile until the end of the summer.
until then,i suggest we post pictures and reports of past experiences to keep each other entertained.

thanks

Dear udupa ,
For your kind reference i am not from oxford .
I am from a village school and belong to a poor family who could not afford better education . So you have to bear with my poor grammer . But i am sure with passage of time i will pick up better grammer while i bask the glory of the fortunate educated class in uae . But then it would not leave you any room to point out mistakes in my linguistic ability . But thanks once again for taking your time out in fine tuning my english skills .

As i did in case of angler 13 he he i will take up this opportunity to buy a Ren and Martin and brush up a little . Any way i will keep your sugession in mind before i post something next time . As you all know i am a difficult fish to fish for he he , keep your lines tight other wise the bait will be disappear .

By the way udupa can you organise a fishing boat trip in abudhabi if its worth wile now . You know the situations better than me . So would appreciate some fishing efforts from you .

UMA is Sardine but like Parnab mentioned we are in UAE if u go to fish market ask for sardine most of them will not understand but if u say UMA every one knows it. I wish i can meet personally Jess and Udupa and present them a bag of UMA (Sardine). Jess i have a request before leaving UAE let us all Fourm member meet and give you a kind farewell party.
I am sure all members will agree with me.

Dear Pranab,

Had you said so in one of your posts, the misunderstanding might not have arisen. Anyhow, it was nice talking to you on the phone.

I wish I could have joined you on your Musandam trip but my passport is expiring very soon and I must apply for a renewal in the coming week, so maybe next time.

Shahzad's family is leaving for vacation tonight, so we may not be able to join you at RAK. We are planning to leave tomorrow afternoon, but thanks a lot for the offer buddy.

Hope to see some nice pics of yourself with some monsters!

Take care,

Syed

jess ,

For your kind information i have misunderstood u jess . I knew u are naughty and took u as my sparring partner . But others may not understand that . Even when its was angler 13 turn i took it on the stride . I have an open mind and i alwys take critisim positively . Thats the best way to learn . Any way i want all of us to give u a farewell so i would request you to come and meet all the forum members in chuas house . It would be a nice occation to give farewell to two departing members u and amir . Please let me know about it.

Hi guys,

Not Jessica..... just Jess.. and we annoy each other when we get no fish to annoy.......

Anyway, folks, got a mail this morning from a member whom I know. It was a lecture actually.

The result of it is I will now apologise to all for all the inconvenience I caused to the forum including my dear friend Pranab.

Pranab, I was just trying to be jovial and do hope you do not take it seriously.

I am leaving the country very soon and moving back home to Manila..

I regret all my words and am genuinly sorry for all the harm and hurt I've caused to all of you. Do hope you all will forgive me.

Do hope hereafter the forum serves its purpose and happy fishing all of you.

I still love you, Pranab.....

Jess,

Tightlines, bent rods and farewell....

Hi Pranab,

The thing is I ask you about something and you reply on something else. Anyway, I'll take your response as "not willing to help."

I am sorry about the above pal, but I am an open sort of a person. When I say something I do it and if I cannot I excuse.

Have a great weekend (fishing and otherwise!)

Syed

hi jess my beloved friend ,

I got your point . Point well noted . I understand you being a philipino you cant undrstand local language . Now the point is neither am i a local guy . So the prob is when i go fishing and i catch a shyam a new fish , i just show it to the angler standing beside me who happnes to be arabic . So he tells me the arabic name . Hence i knew this problem and hence if you hv seen in the note under my post that i askd keyurs help to translate the names into english .

In fact keyur did that with website address and ijlal also supported by translating all the fish names in english for the convenience of those who dont knw the arabic names . By the way none was malayam names which i mentioned .

I would have definately wrote them in english had i my self known the english names . More over my sggesstion to you . You have to learn a few local fish names the reason is when you go to the local fish market to buy bates and if u want to ask the fisherman what bate would hook up silver grunt , he will just look blank towards you . But if you say wht bate is good for nagroor he can immidiately guide you . Did you get the point .

I hope i am not disappointing any one over here with this mail . Neither i am tying to be a moderator . I am just trying to sort things out as i am pround that this forum have gone a long way for discussing fishing . And i want to keep it that way .

I am here by suggest something to all forum members . I want to organise a gathering either in my house or in chuas house for all the fisherman who are active forum members .

We can talk about rod building and appropiate tackle that is relevant to this area . More over it would be a nice occation to meet each other over a weekend . I am sure when we meet each other we will all see every one is nice and helpful and this misconception of some one is bad and some one is better would give away to better ideas and thoughts which would be helpful for fishing . We can play at the gathering new fishing techniques like jigging dvds and can ask experienced guys like chua , kit , jeen to speak about fishing .

If every one agrees i think this is the best thing to do in the hot summer when fishes hv ran away far in the deep . Awaiting all your response on the above subject . I can be reached on my cell reachabele always 0506789546 or email pdass06@rediffmail.com .

I think for refreshment purpose we can have a token attendence fee of 10 \20 dirhams from every one keen to attend this kind of a gathering .

Awaiting response from every one here . And naughty boy jess this if for you also . I love u jess for being so naughty specially with me . But please appreciate others dont undrestand you . Its only alwys me who understand you . I will also try to make a copy of a fishing chart with local and english names which can be distributed to all the attending members . Besides this we can form group from each fishing area to let them report on a regular basis wht are the catch being uplifted from diff areas .

regards

hi ijlal ,

Well i can suggestyou a few shops which keeps wht u are looking for . For cheaper budget you can go to wan hei fishing tackle shop in dubai china mart . The owners name is Mr lee . All the items are made from china here . You can except a rod within AED 130- 140 for baitcasting . They keep fly rods also .

If you want better quality there is a shop on the jumeriah beach road known as al hamour . But the prices here are expensive . It all depends upon budget . Get in touch with chua he will guide you on this issue . He is an expert rod builder . Has been building rods for the last 20 odd years . For me any rod problem i go to chua . For any tackle like rapala , soft plastics hook issues i go to kit . Unfortunately kit is out of country right now . But i think to build a standard rod it will take you a budget of around 700 to 800 dirhams . And i will sggest you to build the rod with some expertise from chua .

Because you might say u can buy them off the shelf . But with my practicle experience i have seen the off the rack rod qualty in dubai is pretty poor . Most of them dont hv good alingment neighter do they have quality guides . Hence apparntly it might seem that 800/900 dirhams is costly but in the long run its cheaper .

For example i bought a michelle which is by no way a bad rod manufacturer and i dished out around 475 dirhams . Appratently seems cheap . But then twice the guides gave me problem . And had not chua been around it would hv been very disappointing . So why take the trouble . Build your own rod which will last a life time then spend behind cheap rods. I have seen my self kit orderd something from states . And on the firt throw it snapped . I am talkingabout baitcasting rod . So not necessarily rods imported from usa are good . So just thik about it . If you are consedering to build a rod i can ask my friend chua to help u out .

regards

Hi Jam,
For quality product you can visit "Barracuda", this shop is located facing the abbra on sabka side.
Then there are many shops behind St.George hospital in Deira. One of the shop "Al Aneed" (the very first shop), tel. no. 04-2258327.

Greetings to the nawabs and all and sundry
Could someone please tell me where the fishing tackle shops are to be found in Dubai? Preferably in the areas near to Garhoud/Deira.
Many thanks

Hi,

i fully agree with Iftikhar shb,

In the accounting field there is a phrase " Substance over form". I think we need to understand the underlying information that is being presented in the posts in this forum. What i mean is that we should not get in to other aspects such as english, urdu, arabic or using caps letters etc etc while writing a post .

I think, we all should encourage the forum participants to contribute with constructive messages.

I would suggest, if there is some thing written in the forum which is not required then no body should reply to that particular post.
