Hello Richie,

I was wondering if you could post pictures of the fish you caught. If you did not take any pictures, do advise all what size fish these were.

Thanks,
Ijlal

Hello Ronald,

Good to see you are finally out fishing.

Regarding fishing over rocks, I would first of all like to point out losing tackle is part of the game. No angler, however experienced, can say he/she never loses weights and hooks to rocks. There is no textbook that can teach you how not to get stuck, but you do minimize your losses as you gain experience.

Float fishing is not really an alternative; it is a different form of fishing and you would be targeting different species of fish, unless, of course you are fishing shallow water.

Here are some of tricks I learnt over the years, that do let you save most of the time.

* After casting, allow your bait to drop down gently. Once the weight has settled on the bottom, take in the slack very gently - there is no need to make the line absolutely taught.

* Avoid moving the weight once it has settled over the rocks.

* Use appropriate rigs: Fish-finder/paternoster rigs are less prone to snag than bottom-feeder/running leger rigs.

* Strike gently: When a fish takes up bait there is no need to strike heavily as do most of the people around you. If you miss, a heavy strike will only ensure the weight or hook gets snagged somewhere.

* If you do feel you are snagged on the bottom, do not pull hard unless as a last resort; instead, give the line lots of slack and wait for five minutes. Many a times, the current/waves will free your tackle for you.

These are just a few tips that came to my mind this moment. The bottom line is there is no substitute for experience. Once you start doing something, you do that awkwardly; gradually, however, you begin to master and your senses and reactions begin to fine tune to that act. It then becomes part of you. To achieve mastery, you have to practice and practice and practice… you certainly will lose many hooks and sinkers, but think of it this way: If you had to hire a coach to teach you the same, you would have paid a good amount. Fortunately, hooks and sinkers do not cost much.

Have a nice weekend!

Ijlal

Hi Vivek
The marina in question is the Dubai Marina, off Sheikh Zayed Road past Mall of the Emirates but before just before the DEWA power station.
I'm sure many of the breakwaters (ie rock structures that go out into the sea) along the whole coast - Umm Suqeim/Jumeirah are also good places to fish from. I just fish the marina area cos it's near my house!
The only things to be careful of are
1) wet rocks at low tide - very slippy and very dangerous - be careful of wet/green rocks near the water.
2) if bottom fishing you can lose a lot of tackle/fish in the rocks. Float fishing could be one answer as some posters have mentioned. Using old spark plugs instead of lead weights on a rotten bottom is another solution if you want to bottom fish - that way, if you snag up in the rocks you only lose the spark plug, not the rest of your gear.
I don't bottom fish usually, I spin with either a sabiki rig or a yozuri sardine, as my target species are queenfish/kingfish/mackerel/trevally barrcuda. Any tackle shop should have these.
I don't fish all that often here (twice since August), and there are many members of the forum who are far more experienced fishing Dubai than me.
I don't know where you live in Dubai, but try wandering down to your local fishing spot and see what other anglers are doing...this can be a good way to learn.
Best

Hi Casper,

Welcome to this forum.

Hope you have fishing license with you?

For fishing you can go to 1) Al Sheef opp. Sheraton Hotel Deira, 2)under Maktoom Bridge,
3)outside Mumzar park, on both the sides. Slowly you’ll will get to know many places.

All the Best.


Ronald.

I have my gear, but have never really put it to good use. The only fish i've caught are the palm size one's from Mamzar ... so am all ready to get out and have some fun with you guys ....

Looks like fishing is improving - had a good number of queenfish and barracuda this morning from the marina, spinning as usual. There are some baitballs moving around here, and also in the Jumeirah region near the breakwaters in the late afternoon/early morning. If queenfish/mackerel are hitting the baitball, a well-placed set of feathers/small spinner should do the trick!

Dear ronald ,

There is only one answer to your problem . Try to use a float and see if there is any diffrence . I hope that will help . Both side of the mamzar canal its very croppy . Hence i think that is the best technique . Keyur fishes there a lot and as per him its his fav spot . So you can ask him for help . This weekend i was there and watched him pull out a hamour from the rocks . So he is the best man to ask for .

regards

Pranab

Hi Friends,

Hope you all had a nice weekend.

I had been to Mamzar Park with my Family and Friends on Friday. I had gone for fishing over there, but got only small ones. Infact I lost 3 sets of hooks.
Here I wanted guidance from the experienced members. Let me explain what I did…..I started with casting the line to maximum distance, and I did not get any bites, (I used squid and chicken pcs as bait) I waited, waited then threw the lines again and again but did not get any bites, then I tried throws somewhere near the rocks, suddenly I felt good bites, and when I tried to retrieve the line it got stuck and I lost the hook, in this way I got good pull but lost 3 set of hooks.
I tried two methods: 1st method – I pulled the line immediately after the 1st bite, but no luck. 2nd method - I tried waiting for 2- 3 pulls and then tried to reel in but it was too late and hook was lost. I even wait for some time thinking that the fish would come out of his hide out, but no luck. As per my idea I feel the Rock fish was biting the bait and running away with my bait/hook under the rocks.
Can anyone suggest what should I do in this situation to get the fish out?
You can alternatively reply on my email id rivolironald@hotmail.com

Regards,

Ronald

Simeon,

Dibba is about the same distance from Sharjah as is Fujairah. It is a beautiful place with deep clear aquamarine water with a back drop of rugged Hajar Mountains that are mist shrouded in the mornings giving an unforgettable view hinting on absolute serenity. The waters are ideal location for a host of gamefish.

Trolling can be very productive and thrilling. On the other hand, there can be days when you come back empty. As it is the start of fishing season here, it is very unlikely to come back empty handed; however, it is our practice to be prepared for a lot of eventualities, so we do carry bait with us.

You can get a boat for around AED 700 on the average for five hours, which is about as cheap you can get anywhere around here.

I, along with my fishing buddy are planning for a boat trip out of Abu Dhabi this Sunday, and can possibly divert our trip to Dibba and guide you to a joint trip if we come to an understanding. If you would like to discuss of a possibility, do give me a call on 050-3232425.

Thanks,
Ijlal

Hello Simeon,

If you are willing to travel to Fujairah, the best possible place is to go to Dibba. Can you advise what type of fishing you plan to do? If you are planning to go trolling, do let know.

My dear Pranab,

I wanted to give a detailed reply to your post; however, as this is a month of kindness and patience, I will just hold short by saying you have not been very honest about everything.

I enjoyed that trip and so did everybody on our boat. All four of us fought at least a few of the longtail tunas and kawakawas (sorry there were no skipjacks!) We landed 7 in the range of 2 to 3.5 kg, and probably lost as many. We could have landed many many more if we had been prepared to catch these ferocious little fighters - We had everything ready for the big blokes!

I however, do not count the success of a fishing trip by the size of the larder, but by the thrill and excitement derived out of it. You say there were very few fish when there were literally tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of these wonderful creatures that would put a barracuda three to four times their size to shame. Had my old sea-trained eyes not come into action, the boatman would have taken us along the cliffs just as yours. We might even 'ave caught a good size grouper along the way, but would have missed all the action everybody enjoyed.

Why you must start a competition what you caught, what we caught, how long you stayed on water and how long we did, is a matter beyond my understanding.

And by the way may I remind you once again my name is SYED IJLAL HUSSAIN; SYED and IJLAL are not two different people. My friend is SHAHZAD not SYED!

Cheers,
Ijlal

Sherrie , Nasser and cat fishes also . Not a single one passed the palm size so had to releae all of them . I guess one more month more may be they will be fit to be taken .

Thanks, Alaska is really beautifull and wild.
After one step beside the street there was maybee nobody before you.
Halibut catching is not so difficult. They but on the bottom on Hering or cod,salmon or you can catch them with plastic lures.
There is a massive current and that make it dificult.
Red Salmon never bite when you catch them into the river...this is all a kind of technique. King salmon get your lure because of a reflex not of eating.
I fish there than more than ten years and I can tell you a lot about salmon fishing of you want.

i see the forum is heating up again and that too for the wrong reasons...fishing is dependant on numerous different factors like weather temperature tide,moon phase and many others...so i find it quite shocking that you are willing to base your entire opinion on boat fishing upon 1 average day of fishing...and i also see that our dear friend jessica is back running his mouth as usual...grow up yourself...and its trigger fish not tigger fish!!
