Hi All,
Went Fishing early friday morning. Went to the place mentioned by Abedzz about 5 am. Saw that there were people camped out and fishing so decided to move on to a different spot near Hamriya town.
Spent about 3 hours fishing there. Caught 1 large Sheri (about 1.5-2Kgs) and a few small ones.
All in all a good day. |

Hello
I see people looking for fishing grear,so here is a idea.If you head to the Sharjah Cornish almost to the Redison SAS Hotel there is a small strip mall with about four or five fishing stores,the place I went to yesterday was A LOT cheaper than carrfour and they had everything you could need.They call them fishing and hunting trading stores |

Simoen here's the location for tht beach at Ajman .....
first u go to Ajman ... pass over city center bridge and keep on gonig straight forward (so far) until you see Enoc petrol station on both sides (Right & Left).... u keep on going straight till u face the first U-Turn. u make a U-turn and go back to enoc tht is found on the left side .... u dont enter to enoc, pass enoc and in a couple of meters u'll find a right turn .... go throught it .... n from here u'll have to go straight again until u'r infront of a round about... take left and keep heading straight until u see a deadline ... by deadline i mean the beach...
its really hard to get there.. but its worth it.... goodluck with finding the location ....

Hi,
I have been living out the UAE for the past couple years, and I will be returning in the next month or two. I have noticed alot of people batteling to find good tackle at a decent price. I am playing with the idea of bringing in a large amount of tackle when i return to sell in the UAE. But before i do so i need to know that it will actually be worth my while, so i was hoping any potential buyers could give me some info. What terminal tackle are popular or successful and hard to find in the UAE. How much do Storm, Halco and Rapala lures cost. Any suggestions and price information would be greatly appreciated. |

Hi guys,
Managed to sneak a couple of hours fly fishing yesterday on Ajman breakwater. Really good fun, plenty of spotted snapper, a trevally and some barracuda. Its a really nice spot. You need to travel towards ras al khaimah and follow the signs for Archirodron construction. Its a bit of a walk to the end but worth it. I'm sure the guys with float and ledger gear will have plenty of Shaeri etc.

The man took my drivers licence and gave me a summons. I have to go to the Municipality to get my licence back (and pay a fine if they think I deserve one). They had a bunch of other guys who weren't carrying the right ID with them on City's boat and were off carting them to the Police Station.
Given the jaw-dropping lack of administrative talent in this region, I wouldn't doubt if the state of affairs in Dubai isn't that you need a valid licence to fish but they are not renewing or giving out any licences. A ban by any other name....?
Am planning on going to the Municipality building this week with our PRO (a big fishing enthusiast) and sorting things out. Will keep you posted.
I was hooked under the Maktoum Bridge. |

Hi Guys,
Just checked with the fishing licence section of the Municipality and the guy there said that they were at present not renewing licences and those with expired licences can continue to use them. I have been trying to renew my licence since October 2005.
I have had guys telling me that there are always checks especially at the Hyatt area. Nowhere else has Municipality checks been reported.
Maximus, the guy was practicing CAR (Catch and Release). BTW when and where were you caught and what did the guy ask you??
Cheers

As a public service announcement, just want to give everyone a heads up that contrary to what you may have heard (or been told at a specialty fishing store) Dubai municipality is enforcing its "no fishing without a fishing license" rule. Was caught and released myself this weekend. |

Hi Guys,
Sorry I have been a bit out the loop so to speak but some sick person decided that I have to work for a living too. There are still a few openings for the up comming fishing clinic at the Meridian in Fujh. We will get together on the 22nd of Feb and it will either be at the Dubai International Marine Club or at our Villa complex near the Knowledge Village/Wellington School just of Zheikh Zayed road!
Please mail me on ajandj9@emirates.net.ae if you would like to attend we will probably have some snacks and drinks and a good time! Bring some money!
We spend the day with WWF yesterday and they told us that a marine conference will be held in Dubai in September over 4 days so watch the press.
Please support catch and release and have a good week ahead! |

Thanks for the replies, in the meantime I found tackedirects website and ordered a load of stuff. It arrived in good time, 3-4 dyays and would have been a day sooner had the UPS driver known how to find the Sheraton!
Been out in Abu and caught a few small cod, Shari and what we would call trevally type things. All good. I am interested in boat charters, we have a few lads here that are keen too.
AJ will see how I go with the club and thanks for the info....... |

Newbius Maximus,
The corniche at Ras Al Khaimah. Guess the tide there should be almost the same as in Dubai/Sharjah.
Here's some info:
THE BEST TIMES to fish are when the fish are naturally most active. The Sun, Moon, tides, and weather all influence fish activity. For example, fish tend to feed more at sunrise and sunset. During a full Moon, tides are higher than average and fish tend to feed more. However, most of us go fishing when we can get the time off, not because it is the best time. But there are best times, according to fishing lore:
One hour before and one hour after high tides, and one hour before and one hour after low tides
Cheers,
Heber

I look at the papers for high and low tides (usually in the weather section). Friday high tide is scheduled to be around 9:30AM. Which corniche are you talking about? Good luck on Friday. |

Hi Troy,
Did some good fishing at the corniche entrance. Some sheris, catfish and sting ray. The sting ray we sent it back into sea. I saw guys fishing with sabiki hooks baited with shrimps. Which is the best time to fish there and how do you go about the tides?? Do you get the tides on the net??
We're planning to come over for a full day on Friday with the family.
Cheers

Great Resource and appreciate all the traffic and great advice on this site. Just two questions (which may be dumb questions, but here goes): (i) most of the fishing people are doing seems to take place over-night (midnight to early morning) why is that; (ii) went fishing in Oman (on the beach between the Hyatt and the Intercon) which was a long gently sloping beach (50 meters in and water still only above my waist) is fishing possible on such beaches? If so, what rigs would you use.
I guess thats three (dumb) questions. Any advice appreciated. |

Hi all,
It seems that we are having a lot of questions in reference to fishing regulations. Maybe it should be a point for the fishing club to take up to find out the regulations in each emirate. Simon, a popular fishing spot in sharjah is next to the ladies club. there is a small breakwater there that fishes well when the sea is calm enough.

Hello
finding a spot to fish can not be this hard especially since im surrounded by water.
I thought I had found a good spot behind Tawwuun mall,but then a guy in a offical looking truck [green seal on side]tells me there is no fishing allowed there and I point to the big red sign that says no nets which im not using,but he says its a misprint and the and the ruler of sharjah has inpossed this,but the funny thing is there are about 10 other people fishing next to me and he says they know, but they are not moving so at the end he says since you are having a nice day go ahead and fish today[the guy was nice about it].Any Ideas on this one.Thanks |

Hi All,
Thomas; Check out this ad that appeared in the papers. They are advertising for Shimano rods and lotsa other stuff. Maybe some one here could check out the shops and let us know.

Hi Simeon,
Used to fish at Mamzar a couple of years back and used to get some decent size fish until fishing was banned there. However, I see people fish from the fenced area close to the park. I went there last week past midnight and tried my luck, nothing. There was another guy fishing too and he said that he used to get good sheri (spangled emperor) from the rocks close to the fenced area.
Abdallah:
I did visit Dragon Mart and yes they have quite long rods good for surfcasting or for the safi behing Hyatt. However, the quality of the stuff they have there are not of good quality. As I said earlier, they are good for those who want to go for light shore fishing with the family or for those who want really cheap stuff. Even the trawling rods will not take on heavy fish. I would'nt buy stuff there except for the crab basket...and maybe a rod for my little girl when she starts fishing (in about 2 years).
Reports say RAK beaches are good for surfcasting and guess you went at the wrong time as the see has been rough for the past few days. If you give me directions to the place you went, I'll try to make it sometime.
Cheers,
Heber

Hi All,
So many questions and so little time.
Regarding the pompano's they might be from the Omani side of the coast, they hold in deeper water and then move into the shallows with the tides, where they feed on crabs mostly over shallow sand banks and then move off with the tides.
Look for them in the shallows on a pushing tide sometimes when they feed they tilt down and the black tails can be seen sticking out of the water.They get spook very easy so approach slowly. They are incredible figters on light tackle and on fly rods! Their numbers are falling so please try and protect them by fishing with barbless hooks and release them after a nice photo!
If you need to know about the Sharjah area mail questions to dave holley he knows that area well.
Good fishing tackle is a bit of a problem but on line shopping is probably best, try www.tackledirect.com the UPS or Fedex cost might be a bit much but they will have it in the UAE within 3 days of ordering.
We are setting up a Sport Fishing club in the UAE, to among other things, assist new commmers to this area. We welcome all forms of Sport fishing.
Watch this site for updates on our get together planned for WED 22 Feb it will be in the Dubai area email me if you would like any other info,

Hi there everyone,
I have been reading a few of the posts for the last half an hour. Great to find something on the UAE. I am living in Abu Dhabi and have been out with gear I brought over from NZ. Just spinnig and a bit of bottom fishing. I have found a few shops here, good for tackle but I snapped my graphite spinning rod today and don't know where to find another one. I can't find anything on the net even in Dubai. They must be there, quality gear shops. Silstar, Okuma, Shimano etc Can anyone help? |

Hi Sammy,
There is some decent shore fishing to be had in RAK. Some of the spots are a hard to explain how to get to unless you know your way around RAK. One spot that is easy to get to is at the entrance to the corniche, but for larger fish make sure you fish into the sea not the corniche.. To get there follow the signs to the Hilton Beach Club but when you reach the sea turn left rather then right. I know these directions dont sound good but if you get to the hilton beach club you will easily see the entrance to the corniche. Or if you catch a taxi in rak and tell him to take you to the granada complex you will be close enough to walk. Hope this was of some help. |

Hi people, I'm coming out to Dubai for just 1 week in March and wanted to try some sea fishing. I'm a carp fisherman and don't usually do much sea fishing in the UK, I have done in the past and to be honest usually a waste of time and money. Can anyone give me any tips or point me in the right directions regarding cost and boat hire etc. you can email direct at markp@thomas-sinden.co.uk cheers! |

I have seen pompano in the local market too but never one in sea. Is it confused with lemon fish??
Troy, could you let us know if Ras Al Khaimah is good for shore fishing / surf casting and if yes, how to get there. Would like to go there with the family.

I have noticed a large number of Pompano in the local fish market, yet in many years of fishing in Ras Al Khaimah I have never caught one of these fine fish. Does anyone know if these fish are caught in the gulf or if they are imported from the east coast, and if they are caught in the gulf how you go about catching them. |

Good luck in muscat. the fishing there is great. I have fished from the shore there before without any trouble, don't think you need a license but may be worth checking with the fisheries department. Very rocky terrain under the water so be prepared to lose some tackle.
