jvs Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I am planning on going fishing on a regular basis to catch fish for food. I have done a fair amount of fishing before but never really in Thailand. Would e nice if i could tag along with someone who can teach me the essentials od fishing overhere. I have been to Cha-am fishing park a few times but do not consider that real fishing. Also would like to go sea fishing a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveK Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I do. Coming from the UK, I was used to float fishing and legering, and boilies for carp. In Thailand most people seem to use large swimfeeders packed with balls of bait about the size of a tennis ball, with about 8 hooks embedded in it which have a small piece of spherical white foam on to imitate real fish/insect eyes - and it does work. I've seen a single guy fishing with 8 rods too, fishing tackle is really cheap in Thailand so I guess you might as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55Jay Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I am, or was, an avid fisherman, which combines my other two favorite things - boating and the ocean (water in general). Not much natural fishing worth a damn up where I live though, so all my gear sits unused. Occasionally I go to a pond near my house and throw small Rapallas or Rooster Tails for (really) small Hampla Barb. I've long ago given up on park fishing, can't stand it. At least you live down near the sea, hopefully you can find an "in" with somebody down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grifbel Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Fisherman? Do I get a prize for correctly answering the OP or was it a trick question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
