Menjaga kesehatan jantung dengan Rumput laut....!!!| http://poerwalaksana.blogspot.com/
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Bagi kebanyakan orang rumput laut bukanlah suatu jenis makanan yang diminati, dan cenderung diabaikan masyarakat barat. 
Namun menyelipkan rumput laut pada saat makan malam dapat membantu mencegah serangan jantung, kata para peneliti. 
Para peneliti telah menemukan bahan-bahan kunci dalam rumput laut yang membantu menurunkan tekanan darah, mirip dengan obat yang biasa diresepkan oleh dokter. 
Menurut sebuah studi besar, rumput laut merupakan yang kaya protein yang dikenal sebagai peptida bioaktif yang juga ditemukan dalam susu. Bahan kimia ini memiliki efek mirip dengan obat ACE inhibitor, yang secara luas diresepkan untuk membantu menurunkan tekanan darah dan mencegah serangan jantung dan stroke. 
Diketahui, rumput laut sangat jarang dikonsumsi masyarakat eropa dan barat, namun berbagai jenis rumput laut telah menjadi bahan pokok dalam makanan Jepang selama berabad-abad. 
Varietas populer dari rumput laut adalah Wakame, digunakan dalam sup miso, Kombu, dan Nori, yang dikeringkan dan digunakan untuk membungkus sushi. 
Dr Maria Hayes, dari Pusat Penelitian Makanan Teagasc di Dublin, mengatakan bahwa rumput laut adalah makanan sehat yang belum dimanfaatkan. 
Rumput laut sangat rendah akan kalori, dan beberapa ilmuwan mengklaim bahwa menkonsumsinya dapat membantu dalam penurunan berat badan dengan mencegah penyerapan lemak. 
Bahkan peneliti Jepang baru-baru ini menemukan bahwa tikus yang diberi makan jenis rumput laut tertentu kehilangan 10 persen berat badan mereka. 
Rumput laut mempunyai kandungan nutrisi cukup lengkap. Secara kimia rumput laut terdiri dari air (27,8%), protein (5,4%), karbohidrat (33,3%), lemak (8,6%) serat kasar (3%) dan abu (22,25%). 
Selain karbohidrat, protein, lemak dan serat, rumput laut juga mengandung enzim, asam nukleat, asam amino, vitamin (A,B,C,D, E dan K) dan makro mineral seperti nitrogen, oksigen, kalsium dan selenium serta mikro mineral seperti zat besi, magnesium dan natrium.
Kandungan asam amino, vitamin dan mineral rumput laut mencapai 10 -20 kali lipat dibandingkan dengan tanaman darat.

Hasil Olahan Rumput Laut 
Nori: Nori dibuat dari rumput laut yang dihaluskan. bubur rumput laut ini kemudian dihamparkan dengan ketebalan yang sangat tipis. 
Proses selanjutnya dikeringkan sehingga bentuknya lembaran menyerupai kertas. Nori banyak digunakan pada masakan Jepang, mulai dari pembungkus sushi, udang gulung atau rollade goreng. Pilih nori yang lentur, kering dan warnanya hitam mengkilat.

Kombu dan Wakame 
Sejenis ganggang laut yang dikeringkan. Kombu adalah bahan dasar membuat kaldu pada masakan Jepang. 
Setelah direbus kuahnya untuk kaldu dan kombunya digunakan untuk isi soup, salad atau tumisan. 
Sedangkan wakame, bentuknya hampir menyerupai kombu, biasanya digunakan untuk campuran salad, isi soup atau campuran mie. jangan merebus wakame lebih dari satu menit untuk mendapatkan citarasa yang maksimal.

Spider Hitch

The offshore fisherman often have a need to tie a double line - a long loop of line that is obviously stronger, and easier to handle, than the line itself. In accordance with International Game Fish Association Rules, the double line may be up to 4.5m long in lines up to 10kg, and as much as 9m in heavier lines. Spider Hitch The double may be tied by means of the simple Spider Hitch with lines to 15kg. The big game boys use the Bimini Twist, a double that is normally formed by two people who make the intitial twenty twists. The Bimini is obviously beyond the scope of this little book. It's smaller brother, the Spider Hitch, is a much faster and easier knot for the light tackle fisherman.

  1. Form a loop of the desired length, say 1.25m.
  2. Twist a section into a small loop.
  3. This is the only tricky part - hold this loop with thumb and forefinger, the thumb extending above the finger, and with the loop standing up beyond the tip of the thumb.
  4. Wind the doubled line around the thumb and the loop 5 times.
  5. Send the rest of the long loop through the small loop, and pull gently to unwind the turns off the thumb.
  6. The knot is now formed and worked into tight coils.

Grouper Description


Grouper are one of my favorite types of fish.  They generally live in reefs and, when hooked, will make a powerful run to their favorite hole and break you off on the rocks if they can.  They don’t have a lot of stamina, but that initial surge can permanently embed the butt of the rod in your gut if you aren’t paying attention.  For this reason, even relatively small Grouper often require fairly heavy tackle because of the amount of drag necessary to keep them from their reef.

Grouper have large mouths relative to their body size and can engulf large baits.  They often come up and eat other reef fish that have been hooked as they are being reeled in.  If you are using scaled-down tackle for the smaller reef fish you are going to need a lot of luck to avoid making a tackle donation to the local reef foundation.  There are many species of Grouper found all around the world and you could easily write a whole book about them.  I will just stick to some general tips based on the types of Grouper fishing I have done.  One of the best things about Grouper is the many colors and variations there are.  I have tried to include a good sample of pics of different ones below.  You could spend your whole fishing life chasing all the different kinds of Grouper around the world and it would not be a life wasted.
Grouper Tackle

Tackle is going to vary depending the size of Grouper targeted.  In general you are going to need heavier tackle than you would normally need for equivalent sized fish.  If you are targeting Grouper larger than 50lbs or so and there are a lot of rocks in the area there is almost no tackle that is too heavy.  Braided line is a big advantage because of its no-stretch qualities.  A reel with a quality drag that has a lot of stopping power is a must.  If you are fishing in a shallow reef area you may not be able to give the fish any line at all.  If you are fishing with monofilament line even if you don’t give any line the line stretch may be enough to allow the Grouper to get into the rocks.  For the biggest Grouper I would go with an Accurate ATD Platinum 30 reel with a heavy duty, short Calstar rod with all roller guides.  For medium Grouper you could go with one of the Accurate BX2 reels. 

I managed to land a 175lb
Goliath Grouper on spinning tackle once (this required a lot of luck) but in general you should go with conventional tackle for the big guys.

Grouper Techniques

Grouper can be caught on lures, live bait, and dead bait.  My favorite way to catch them is casting jerkbaits in shallow reef areas but a large livebait is probably the most effective way.
Grouper Lures

Many people have success trolling deep diving plugs so that they go just above the reef where the fish are.  If you are fishing a shallower reef it can be great fun to cast jerkbaits like a
Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow and retrieving them erratically with frequent pauses.  Many times the fish bite on the pause.

In deeper water they can be caught on metal jigs.  You just bounce them off the bottom and occasionally take some cranks and then drop them back down.  My biggest lure-caught Grouper was caught on a Salas 7X jig.

You can also troll deep diving plugs such as the Mirrolure in Pink or Orange, colors that work surprisingly well.
Grouper Baits

The best bait for most Grouper is a live fish of some sort.  Whatever large baitfish are prevalent in the area should work.  If it is legal where you are fishing you can just hook a smaller reef fish of whatever sort is biting, put a big hook in it, and drop it back down.

Where to get the big Grouper

There are many, many species of Grouper and many places to pursue them.  The Bahamas have many species of Grouper.  Panama has some good Grouper fishing, and South Florida does as well although there are many more restrictions.  The Great Barrier Reef in Australia has a host of colorful Grouper species including the beautiful Coral Trout.

Other Grouper Resources

The above barely scratches the surface on how to catch Groupers.  The resources below will provide a wealth of information:

Cara Memancing Ikan Tenggiri

$
0
0

Penggunaan set medium heavy dengan mainline 10lb ke 25lb yang tidak berwarna sepanjang melebihi 200 mtr. perambut pula dari jenis flourocarbon 20lb panjang 2 mtr dengan coated steelwire 20lb panjang 6" menggunakan hook 2/0 dan 3/0.



Ikan tenggiri jenis batang

Arus mati.
Belon atau pelampung yang sesuai adalah digalakkan untuk mengelakkan umpan berbelit dengan pancing lain. Jarak umpan dengan belon paling kurang 4 mtr. Lagi panjang lagi bagus. Lepaskan umpan dalam jarak melebihi 30 mtr dari bot. Ikan hidup seperti selar dan kembong hendaklah dicangkut dalam keadaan kepala mengarah ke hadapan.
Arus perlahan.

Penggunaan teknik floating tanpa ladung atau belon. tetapi umpan ikan hidup hendaklah dicangkut dalam keadaan kepala menghadap bot. kalau menggunakan multiflier reel, bolehlah ikat perambut steelwire direct kepada mainline dengan ikatan albright dengan safety knot dihujung.

Arus deras.

Penggunaan teknik mid water dengan batu ladung bersaiz 2 atau 3. batu ladung dimasukkan kedalam mainline. setelah lepaskan ikan hidup ladung hendaklah dipegang. hulurkan tali sepanjang 10 mtr baru ikatkan getah gelung pada mainline untuk jadikan stopper ladung. lepaskan sepanjang 30 mtr dari bot.
Untuk pancingan malam pula perambut 50lb digunakan manakala steelwire 50lb pula hendaklah sepanjang 1 kaki. sekiranya bulan gelap cara pancingannya pula berbeza kerana tenggiri hanya akan makan dibawah bayangan cahaya lampu bot. bottom fishing tetapi dinaikkan sebanyak 8 mte. teknik seperti siang boleh digunakan sekiranya bulan terang.

Hook Up:

hook up hendaklah dibuat dengan kuat beberapa kali supaya mata yang disangkut pada umpan hidup boleh tanggal dan menyangkut pula pada rahang ikan tenggiri. sekiranya ini tidak diambil berat kita akan kehilangan tenggiri tersebut kerana rabut.
inilah serba sedikit yang boleh kawan berikan sebagai info pada kenkawan semua.
kalau dilayan dengan slow dan smooth species ini mudah menyerah tapi kalau ditarik dan dikarau ganas ia akan lebih ganas dan lambat menyerah. peratus putus sangat besar. penggunaan light set dengan mainline 10lb adalah sangat berkesan untuk menawan species ini tetapi ia akan mengganggu kekawan lain kerana memakan masa yang lama. kalau medium heavy makan masa 5 minit, light set pula 7 minit.

Tentang keadah pancingan tenggiri, kita perlu tahu yang paling mustahak ialah spot.

spot 1: Spot karang yang mana tenggiri nya telalu banyak hinggakan kalau dihulur apa saja yang bergerak akan dimakan seperti dilatuna sarawak.

spot 2: merupakan karang yang sempit yang memang banyak tenggiri menghuni disini dimana ramai nelayan pancing menjadi penunggu tetap disini seperti karang ngah. mereka hanya memancing tenggiri sahaja dengan mendapat hasil yang mencapai 40 hingga 50 ekor sehari.

spot 3: spot yang ada tenggiri tetapi tidak menjadi lubuk nelayan kerana kalau ditunggu pun hasil nya tak seberapa. seperti didalam unjam laut.

spot 4: spot yang karang nya sangat luas. dimana kita perlu bergantung pada nasib untuk dapatkan species tenggiri.

spot 5: spot yang tiada rekod hasilkan tenggiri tetapi saja2 mencuba tetapi kadang kala dapat juga.

keadah untuk spot 1:
semua keadaah sesuai digunakan tetapi sekiranya untuk dapat hasil yang banyak pakailah perambut steelwire kasar dengan teknik bottom. bila kena saja rentaplah terus naikan keatas bot. sekiranya nak kan keseronokan pancing kawan syorkan pakailah light set dengan mainline 10lb, perambut steel wire 20lb dan hook 2/0 cutting point.

keadah spot 2:
memandangkan puluhan nelayan menunggu tempat ini sehari hari jadi tenggiri disini sudah kenal benda asing yang dihulurkan pada mereka. line berwarna atau braided, steewire hitam, kekili besar, umpan mati serta benda asing seperti getah, manik danperambut kasar merupakan benda2 yang perlu dielakkan. sehinggakan nelayan yang kita tahu terkenal dengan koyan dengan tangsi hingga ratus lb hanya menggunakan perambut 15lb sahaja disini. melainkan dikala permulaan species ini masuk ke sini setelah berbulan laut bergelora. ketika itu keadahnya sama dengan spot 1.

keadah spot 3:
dispot ini bolehlah kita gunakan teknik spinner atau sesudu juga casting rapalla. kalau nak gunakan keadaah floating dan mid water juga boleh. tenggiri disini tidak peka pada perambut atau benda2 asing kerana sesekali sahaja mereka diumpan dengan benda asing.

keadah spot 4:
disini trolling amat berkesan. keadah lain boleh digunakan tetapi peratusan hasilnya sangat kecil dibandingkan dengan keadaah trolling.

keadah spot 5:
disini kita hanya perlu tajul satu set untuk tenggiri denga keadah floating disamping pancing bottom untuk species lain. kita tidak perlu berharap pada tenggiri lebihkan tumpuan pada species lain. sekiranya ada rezeki dapatlah seekor dua.

Perhatian:
species tenggiri tidak memilih arus. kalau arus laju tapi faktor lain baik ia akan makan dan sebaliknya walaupun arus baik tetapi faktor lain tidak baik alamat melangutlah joran kita.

Faktor2 tenggiri aktif.
1.cuaca baik setelah habis monsoon. tidak kira arus.(karang)
2.cuaca baik air jernih(biru kehitaman) tidak kira arus.(karang)
3.cuaca tidak baik tapi arus baik.(unjam)

Teknik rentapan untuk pancingan tenggiri pula ada beberapa teknik yang berkesan sesuai dengan set pancing dan keadah pancing yang kita gunakan.

1. penggunaan light set medium fast action rod mainline 10 ke 15lb keadah hanyut dengan umpan hidup. sebelum pancingan dimulakan pastikan dulu tension drag pada tekanan 80% dari kekuatan mainline. semasa umpan diturunkan hendaklah perhatikan kelajuan pergerakan renangan umpan sekiranya kelajuan pergerakan maintain teruskan dengan tension dalam keadaan off(free) sekiranya ada rasa macam kelajuan renangan umpan bertambah dengan drastik, jangan lengah terus saja sentap dengan kuat beberapa kali kerana umpan anda sudah dimakan. semasa sentapan dibuat pastikan tension drag masih dalam keadaan free. on kan drag bila saja mangsa membuat larian laju. biarkan tension dalam keadaan 80% kekuatan line supaya mangsa cepat pancit.
sentapan untuk light set perlu sekuat hati kerana rod yang lembut. daging umpan yang fresh masih liat jadi perlukan kekuatan untuk koyakkan daging umpan supaya mata kena pada mangsa.
bila ikan tidak makan semasa umpan turun, on kan drag dan parkinglah dekat holder. sekiranya umpan dientap, kekuatan drag tadi akan buatkan hook kena kat mulut mangsa tetapi sekiranya kita lambat buat hook up, umpan akan diludah dengan mudah sahaja kerana hook hanya melukai mangsa tapi belum melepasi duri pandan. sentapan hendaklah dilakukan dalam keadaan rod masih melengkung kerana dimasa itu memori pada rod dan line sudah sampai tahap maksima. dengan cara ini hook akan menembusi daging pada mulut mangsa.

2. Penggunaan medium heavy set, mainline 25lb ke 30lb pula sangat senang tetapi perlukan kepantasan kerana memori kelengkungan rod hanya sedikit dibandingkan dengan light rod. setkan tension drag sama dengan cara tadi dengan ketegangan 80% kekuatan mainline. bila saja ada rentapan dari mangsa rod hendaklah disentap dengan kuat dan cepat. jangan pula bila rod ditarik ikan, tension nak ketatkan, tali ikatan nak dibuka terlebih dahulu barulah nak buat hook up . alamatnya putih mata. hook up terlebih dahulu sebelum buat lain perkara barulah peratus untuk dapatkan mangsa lebih besar.
 
 

Scaffold Knot

Scaffold Knot This is a much simpler variant. In all likelihood, this Grant's Uni-Knot. I have used it for more than fifty years and it has never failed me, whether tied in 1kg or 50kg monofilament. It was taught to me by the late Wally Kerr, a top flathead fisherman.

  1. Pass a 15cm loop of line through the eye.
  2. Lock the upper part between thumb and forefinger, making a loop.
  3. Make two more loops over the double part, holding them too, between thumb and forefinger.
  4. Pass the end through the two loops just made, plus the first loop made in step2.
  5. The formed knot can now be drawn into shape, and worked down against the eye of the hook or swivel.

Petua Mengatasi Mabuk Laut

( Samada benar atau tidak kita perlu mencuba terlebih dahulu dan jika mahu mencuba saya sarankan agar berselawat terlebih dahulu. Jika masih mabuk gunakan teknologi terkini dengan menelan pil penahan mabuk dan jika masih gagal, dinasihatkan jangan kelaut. Memancing sahaja di sungai dan tasik – anda pasti tidak mabuk)

  1. Ini rasional – mengikut pakar perubatan. GINJAL dibelakang telinga memainkan fungsi penting dalam menseimbangkan tubuh badan. Digalakkan mengurut ginjal dibelakang telinga terutama bila mula merasa pening. Menggerakkan kepala ke kiri dan kanan selain melakukan senaman ringan mampu menghilangkan rasa mabuk laut.
  2. Bagi nelayan, MINUM AIR LAUT dikuala mampu menahan diri daripada mabuk laut. Boleh diminum hingga ‘sendawa’ dan boleh juga sedikit sahaja kerana ini boleh menahan tekak dari merasa loya.
  3. Syor nelayan dan TLDM, agar orang yang mabuk laut, TERJUN DAN MANDI LAUT tapi mesti pandai berenang. Dengan menyelam beberapa ketika badan dan kepala akan menjadi segar semula.
  4. OREN SUNKIST juga berguna. Ada orang kata,limau tak boleh dibawa kelaut, takut ribut. Kita hanya perlu bawa kulit Oren Sunkist saja. Kalau boleh kunyah kulit Oren berkenaan sepanjang berada di laut. Kalau tak sanggup, kunyahlah sebelum perjalanan dan jika terasa loya semula, kita kena kunyah lagi.
  5. Cuba makan KELEDEK MENTAH. Rasionalnya mudah, keledek mentah mempunyai sedikit getah yang boleh membuat mulut kita tidak rasa loya.
  6. Makan PISANG KELAT. Rasionalnya sama seperti keledek. Untuk lebih mujarab, titiskan sedikit air limau sebelum memakannya.
  7. Selit kan SAYUR KANGKUNG dipinggang atau poket.Pastikan ia tidak jatuh sepanjang kita memancing.
  8. Tumbuk LADA HITAM yang dicampur dengan HALIA BARA, kemudian sapu diperut terutama bahagian pusat sebelum ke laut.
  9. Sebelum memancing , jangan minum minuman yang BERKRIM ATAU BERSUSU. Seeloknya bawa AIR OREN sebagai minuman semasa memancing.

Kite Fishing

$

Procedure:

1. Make up components as individual units, dropline, bottle, bait and trace etc. Use snap swivels for easy attachment.
2. Set up Skymaster and adjust bridle ring until desired angle of attack is achieved. You do this by loosening the larks head knot and sliding the line through the ring and then tightening the knot again. Shortening the left-hand bridle line will make the kite tack to the right and vice-versa. Make small adjustments and fly the kite and keep adjusting until you are satisfied. Let out all the kite line and remove the line from the reel and attach a snap swivel on the end.
3. Now clip the kite line onto the 3-way swivel, which in turn is attached to the fishing reel, drop line, bottle and bait. You will now be controlling everything from the reel.
4. Begin to let out line from the fishing reel taking up the slack from the drop line until you can release the bottle. This is a good time to check that the kite is behaving properly.
5. Keep letting out line from the reel until the bottle, and bait, is the desired distance from shore, this is usually 200m - 500m (650ft - 1,650ft).

NOTE: Don't make the drop-line and trace longer than you can back up on land, otherwise you may not be able to get the fish close enough to gaff. Kite fishing alone is not easy so have a helper at hand.


When I was a kid, one of the favorite summer pastimes was kite flying. We would spend hours adding just enough tail to keep the kite straight, but not so much that it would not reach some altitude. We would ride bicycles with the kite string tied to our waste and the kite suspended in the air 30 or 40 feet above and behind us. On calm days we would run sometimes an entire city block trying to launch our kite.

I still enjoy kite flying, only these days it is from the stern of a boat! And the kites I fly today are a far cry from the newsprint and balsa wood versions we used to make. These high tech kites I use are for one purpose, and that is to catch fish.

The method is relatively easy. It just takes a little practice to keep the boat motion either with the engine or with a drift such that the kite remains in the same relative vertical space all the time.

The kite acts as an outrigger of sorts, although you might better name it and "up" rigger.

The kite is launched and flown from the stern of a boat, usually on a line from a special rod and reel. The fishing line is attached at the kite similar to an outrigger, only instead of keeping the line out, it keeps it up. Boat speed
determines where the bait is in the water.

Usually a slow troll or drift, this fishing is designed for live bait. A live blue runner, or ballyhoo, or other bait fish is suspended from the kite right on the surface of the water. The bait's attempts to get below the surface
coupled with the motion of the kite keep the bait in and out of the water, right on the surface. It really drives billfish in the area crazy!

But don't be fooled into thinking that this is strictly a billfish tactic. King mackerel, cero mackerel and occasionally wahoo are also caught from kite rigs. My fishing partner has even caught yellowfin and blackfin tuna from his kite.

Any one can use this method. The expense involved is minimal, even for the special designed fishing kites. Many fishermen make their own kites to save money, but when they are made from paper, they usually don't last through the first day. So, a vinyl kite made for fishing is recommended. Simply catch your live bait, get to the area you would normally be trolling, and dangle a live bait on the surface under a kite. A nice lazy way of spending a day - no hard fishing, no weeds to clear from the bait, and a whole lot less gasoline used.

Ikan nila

$
0
0

Para mancing mania pastinya sudah tidak asing lagi dengan ikan nila, karena ikan jenis ini merupakan salah satu jenis ikan air tawar yang sering didapat oleh para pemancing. Ikan jenis ini sering didapat oleh para mancing mania dikarenakan ikan nila hidup di air tawar (freshwater), yang tersebar di kolam pemancingan (empang), waduk, maupun sungai. Ikan nila ini berawal dari benua afrika pada tahun 1969 yang memiliki nama Oreochromis niloticus dan dalam bahasa inggris dikenal sebagai Nile Tilapia.

Ikan nila dapat mencapai ukuran kuaran lebih 30 cm, dengan tubuh yang berwarna kehitaman dan tampak garis-garis kehitaman pada badannya yang vertikal. Tetapi pada semakin dewasa garis ini mengabur.
Ikan jenis merupakan ikan omnivora, yaitu jenis hewan pemakan segalanya. Untuk memancing ikan nila dapat dipakai umpan yang alami, seperti tumbuh-tumbuhan yaitu lumut, umpan hewan hidup lainnya seperti jangkrik, cacing unthel, cacing gebyar, maupun cacing merah.

 Bagi pemancing, ada berbagai macam cara untuk membedakan ukuran ikan nila yang akan didapat yaitu pada saat memakan umpan. Cara ini dapat dibedakan dari sensasi maupun kekuatan yang diterima senar pancing. Bila ikan nila dewasa sensasi tarikannya sangat halus sehingga para mancing mania harus lebih mengamati senar pancing daripada mengamati ujung joran. Dan bila ikan nila anakan para pemancing dapat merasakan getaran yang diberikan ke joran pancing, karena ikan nila jenis anakan masih kasar dalam memakan umpan. Cara ini dapat dilakukan bila memancing dengan menggunakan teknik dasaran dan menggunakan umpan cacing (tanpa pelampung).
Bila memancing dengan umpan tumbuhan lumut, dapat menggunakan pelampung dengan kedalaman yang disesuaikan dengan kedalaman air. Ada juga para pemancing mania memancing ikan nila menggunakan joran tegek, dengan umpan buatan yaitu pelet. Cara ini menggunakan banyak ikatan mata pancing yang kosong untuk mennyekrik dengan diatasnya terdapat pelet untuk menjebak ikan agar berada diatas mata pancing kosong tersebut.Menyekrik dari bahasa jawa, merupakan cara memancing dengan mata kail yang kosong, dengan cara memberikan tarikan sehingga mata pancing nyangkut di salah satu badan maupun sirip ikan.

Memancing Ikan Patin

Teknik Hebat Memancing Ikan Patin
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Pegasius atau biasa juga disebut ikan patin atau jambal adalah jenis ikan yang bermain di dasar. Untuk pemancing jenis ikan ini berikut adalah tips dan trik memancing ikan ini.

Rangkaian pancing ikan patin bisa menggunakan pelampug atau tidak (glosor). Rangkaian ikan pancing bisa terdiri 1 atau 2 mata kail ukuran kecil sampai sedng. Hal ini dikarenakan ikan pegasius tidak memiliki mulut yang terlalu besar. Gunakan kawat nikelin kecil dan lemas aau kenur pandu / lider, kili-kili dan timah pemberat ukuran kecil.

Yang harus diingat, apabila anda lebih suka pada pelampung adalah jarak kail samapai pelampung harus sepanjang dalamnya sungai atau kolam agar umpan dapat menyentuh dasar.
Pertama-tama ikatan pancing ke nikelin / kenur pandu sepanjang 5-7 cm, kemudian nikelin atau kenur pandu tersebut (apabila ada dua, kedua-duanya) diikatkan ke kili-kili.

Sebelumnya kili-kili itu diikatkan ke senar utama, jangan lupa masukkan timah pemberat di kenur utama. Pastikan timah pemberat yang digunakan adalah jenis yang bolong di tengah (timah melinjo) sehingga timah dapat bergerak leluasa di senar utama.

Setelah timah dimasukkan, ikatkan senar utama ke kili-kili yang tersambung dengan mata kail. Setelah rangkaian pancing jadi, gunakan karet stopper di senar utama sebagai penjaga agar timah tidak berjalan terlalu jauh dari kili-kili. Jarak 5 cm biasanya sudah cukup memadai.
Setelah umpan yang terpasang dilempar , pastikan senar berada di garis lurus antara pemancing dan umpan. Tidak perlu menarik senar sehingga tegang, justru biarkan agak kendor sehingga senar bisa terlihat terapung di atas air membentuk satu garis. Apakah ikan menyambar, maka pemancing akan melihat garis yang terbentuk dari senar di atas air tersebut berjalan.

Ikan patin tidak akan membawa umpan dalam satu kali sentakan, begitu senar bergerak beberapa saat cepat-cepat sentak joran anda. Telat menyentak akan mengakibatkan umpan dilepehkan oleh ikan dan terlepas.

Ikan patin akan terasa mengasikan apabila dipancing dengan senar kecil. Untuk pemula disarankan senar berukuran 8-12 lbs, bagi yang menyukai teknik fight “tarik-ulur” disarankan menggunakan senar berukuran 2 – 6 lbs.

Jangan lupa setelan drag yang disesuaikan dengan ukuran senar. Hentakan pertama tidak akan membuat ikan patin berukuran besar melawan dengan kuat, anda biasanya akan merasa berat, tetapi semakin ke pinggir maka ikan akan mulai “mengamuk”.

Hati-hati, sentakan mendadak dari patin terhadap senar kecil dapat memutuskan tali senar. Ketika ikan sudah dekat dan siap untuk diangkat, siapkan serokan untuk mengangkat ikan. Ingat jangan memegang tali apabila ingin mengangkat ikan untuk diserok. Apabila menggunakan kenur kecil, ikan patin yng hendak diserok biasanya akan melawan dengan keras dan kemungkinan besar putus.

PLASTIK LEMBUT PERANGKAP SIAKAP

$

Muara Sungai Penor sememangnya terkenal dengan siakap-siakap gadangnya. Siakap-siakap di sini pula, boleh diperdayakan dengan penggunaan gewang. Telah banyak spesies yang berjaya ditewaskan dengan renangan hard bodied lures, jadi geng Kuantan Lure Casters @ K.L.C ingin mencuba penggunaan soft plastic (S.P) pula. Adakah ia juga efektif seperti gewang-gewang lain? Tanpa di sangka, ia rupanya berjaya membuka selera raja muara ini untuk meligannya.

Kejayaan menewaskan siakap rekod 16 kg menggunakan Rapala Shad Rap di Muara Penor menyebabkan timbul pula keinginan untuk menipunya dengan kaedah lain pula. Selain dari kepelbagaian jenis gewang, S.P juga turut menghiasi pasaran cuma pengunaannya agak terhad dan jarang dipakai oleh pemancing di kawasan muara. Oleh itu Lee Benteng dan rakan-rakannya berkeyakinan, gewang dari plastik lembut ini juga mampu untuk menggoda spesies-spesies muara asalkan kena pada masa dan cara persembahannya.
Lokasi : Kuala Penor Kuantan


Teknikal Soft Plastic
Perkara pertama ialah memastikan keadaan airnya bersesuaian untuk menggayakan S.P.(soft plastic) Jika air besar maka ianya akan menghasilkan arus yang deras di alur Sungai. Oleh itu air kecil adalah masa terbaik, kerana semasa ini perbezaan pasang dan surutnya tidak ketara dan ini akan menghasilkan arus yang perlahan. Ianya amat penting untuk menjamin agar S.P berenang dengan cantik, lantas berjaya membuka selera penghuni muara ini.
Selepas pemilihan hari dan waktu terbaik ditetapkan, bagaimana pula dengan penggunaan peralatan pancingnya? S.P tadi biasanya akan dipadankan dengan Berkley Nitro Jig Head model Bream Pro Series. Semasa arus lembut, jig head seberat 3.6 gram sudah memadai, dan ia mempunyai kelebihan tenggelam 30 cm persaat. Mata kailnya dari jenama Owner yang terkenal dengan ketajamannya dan ia cukup kuat untuk menahan asakan siakap di kawasan bereba di sini.

Jig Head bermata kail Owner yang tajam akan memberi tancapan jitu. Penggunaan jig head yang betul akan memastikan S.P beraksi cantik untuk menggoda raja muara ini.

Disebabkan kombinasi S.P dan jig head yang ringan sebegini, maka kekili mendatar (spinning reel) lebih praktikal. Kekili bersaiz kecil seperti model dibawah saiz 3000 yang diisi tali sulam 10 paun sudah memadai. Joran lembut berkekuatan 12 paun ke bawah amat sesuai untuk menghidupkan aksinya. Pergerakan atau aksi S.P hanya pada bahagian ekornya sahaja dan ia tidak mempunyai buit-in action seperti hard bodied lure lainnya. Oleh itu gaya karauan dan henjutan amat penting untuk menghidupkan aksinya.

Mungkinkah renangan S.P yang melentuk-lentuk menyebabkan siakap menjadi geram? 

Semasa mengilat pula, jika tiada sebarang tanda-tanda siakap mengejar mangsa, maka balingan di lakukan di luar kawasan bereba. Ia dibiarkan tenggelam sehingga mencecah dasar dan selepas itu barulah karauan dilakukan. Biasanya 2 cara ini digunakan untuk  menggayakannya. Ada yang gemar membuat kayuhan amat perlahan dan dengan cara ini, jig head yang berat tadi akan menyondol dasar sementara S.P pula akan tertonggeng ke atas dan bahagian ekornya akan membuai-buai. Seretan yang perlahan juga akan menyebabkan setiap lubang atau lekuk pada bahagian dasar akan dijelajahi oleh S.P ini.
Hujung joran direndahkan, dan disentap ke kiri dan kanan menyebabkan S.P akan beraksi zig-zag. Teknik yang menyebabkan S.P melilau kiri dan kanan ini  kerap memperdayakan siakap.   

3 ekor siakap pada satu malam dengan penggunaan S.P agak membanggakan
(Lokasi Kuala Penur kuantan)

Teknik manapun digunakan, tetapi masa paling penting ialah semasa membuat sentapan untuk memastikan mata kail tertacap kemas ke mulutnya. Siakap biasanya akan mengeman terlebih dahulu dan ia kurang curiga terhadap S.P kerana badannya yang lembut seolah-olah ikan betul. Bila terasa ragutan biarkan ia seketika dan bail arm dibuka untuk membiarkannya membetulkan kedudukan mangsa sebelum menelannya. Selepas tali terasa dibawa lari, masa inilah rentapan padu perlu dilakukan.

Selepas itu tunggu sahaja lompatan darinya untuk memastikan ianya adalah raja muara yang anda nanti-nantikan lariannya. Seandainya anda berkesempatan mengilat siakap di lokasi kegemaran, pastikan S.P dibawa bersama, manalah tahu ada spesimen lebih besar pula yang terpedaya!

Marlin Trolling

Unlike other marlin, blacks live only in the Pacific. They are considered by most marine biologists to be a continental shelf species – meaning that they tend to remain near landmasses and are unlikely to be found in open waters. Perhaps that characteristic contributes to the black marlin’s more deliberate nature. Black marlin are more likely to remain in a specific area for longer periods of time, move slower than a blue or a striper, and feed in a more methodical, systematic way. Like all marlin, they are opportunistic feeders but differ from the others in that they are known to consume loads of reef fish. Hunting areas of structure for grouper, snapper and other reef fish, the black develops more of a territorial personality. Blacks caught and released in one area are often caught again in the same spot weeks later.


Marlin trolling relies on a pattern of lures to maximise strikes. Many marlin seem to be drawn like a magnet to a particular lure and are rarely scared of the boat.

For marlin, four or five lures in the pattern is enough as things can be very difficult if a jumping fish takes the lure close to the boat and then weaves its way out through the other outfits.
When marlin trolling, a teaser, bird or similar device that adds action in amongst the lures can help draw extra strikes. From my experience, it is hard to beat a teaser beating and flashing just in front of the first big fish lure.

How the lures are arranged is a matter of preference and a bit of experience, however the pattern shown here works very well.




Some anglers like to work the lures in matched pairs down each side of the boat while others like to have a long side and short side. With a short corner rod matched with a short lure in the outrigger and a long corner rod matched by a long line on the rigger.

The fifth lure is usually set down the middle of the pattern and behind the other lures with the rod in the rocket launcher, this is known as the ’shotgun’ lure.

Best results on marlin have come from using a five lure pattern with two short lures run from the stern corners, (about 25 metres or 75 feet) two outrigger lures set at around 50 metres (150 feet) and the fifth lure run down the centre of the wake but kept slightly shorter than the outrigger lures.

The short lures and the outrigger lures are set as matched pairs.
The advantage of this pattern is that it is almost tangle free and allows for manoeuvring around fish attractors, schools of bait, islands or whatever without fuss.

All lures are set on top of the wake rolls behind the boat. The wake roll optically enhances the appearance and the movement of the lure to any fish swimming below. The effect is like putting something in the centre of a glass lens. Lures can be set in the second, third and so on wake rolls.

Even though it looks close many fish are caught in the second or third wake roll close to the boat, so don’t think all the lures need to be way back, they don’t.

Lure patterns are set very deliberately and attention should be paid to lure placement. Some lures simply work and catch better in particular spots in the pattern. Most of this is only discovered by experience and strike rates.

Fahami istilah `tengok air’ dan `tengok bulan’

Pergerakan air banyak dipengaruhi oleh pergerakan bulan yang mempengaruhi pasang dan surut.
Kalau di Pantai Barat, tekong sering merujuk kepada air kerana ia elemen yang penting apabila memancing di sini.

Air merujuk kepada keadaan arus kerana Selat Melaka yang sempit menyebabkan terjadi perbezaan pasang surut yang amat ketara ketika air besar pada paras sehingga 5 meter.

Ia terjadi sama ada ketika bulan purnama (hari 15 bulan Melayu) dan bulan gelap sewaktu muncul anak bulan (hari 1 bulan Melayu). Apabila arus deras, ia akan mengeruhkan air dan menyukarkan ikan menemui umpan yang dilabuhkan.

Malah kehadiran arus melampau seterusnya mudah menghanyutkan ladung kecil. Masalah akan lebih rumit jika ramai pemancing berada dalam satu bot dan arah tali tertumpu pada satu kawasan seterusnya fenomena tali bersimpul sesama sendiri mudah terjadi.

Dalam dunia pancing moden kini, ramai pemancing memilih untuk keluar ketika air besar tetapi tumpuan memancing lebih kepada teknik jigging dan trolling. Dua teknik ini lebih efektif ketika air besar berbanding air mati untuk di Pantai Barat. Ikan dikatakan lebih agresif menyambar umpan ketika air pasang.

Istilah ‘tengok bulan’ sebenarnya lebih kurang sama dengan apa yang diperkatakan oleh nelayan Pantai Barat sebagai ‘tengok air’. Kerana asasnya pengaruh air adalah merujuk kepada peredaran bulan. Fakta menarik ialah sesetengah tekong suka memancing ketika bulan gelap dan ada memilih ketika bulan terang.

Masing-masing ada kelebihan sendiri merujuk kepada spesies ikan yang diburu. Ketika bulan gelap, tumpuan pemancing lebih ketara kerana ketika ini sotong mudah diperolehi dengan memasang cahaya lampu pada bot.

Jika bulan terang, sotong dikatakan berselerak di serata kawasan dan sukar untuk nelayan atau pemancing untuk menarik perhatian sotong. Sotong selain elemen hasil, ia juga adalah umpan terbaik memancing sebelah malam.

Sebab itu ramai menggemari memancing pada bulan gelap berbanding bulan terang kerana faktor di atas. Namun selain faktor air dan bulan, satu lagi aspek penting dalam perancangan trip memancing ialah ramalan cuaca atau keadaan musim yang bakal melanda pada hari perancangan.

Baik mana sekalipun keadaan bulan dan air tetapi jika cuaca tidak mengizinkan maka aktiviti memancing menjadi tidak bermakna.

Catfish cages priced at RM12 per kg, while in catfish ponds usually RM3.90 to RM4.90. In terms of physical, catfish cage has a lean and thin stomach than the fat merening catfish ponds. Catfish cages less fat in their bellies and it is more active. This is because they are forced to fight with the river current speed. While many catfish swimming pool water because fat does not move, so it is less active and work their eating and sleeping only ..



Fat catfish cage while white fat yellow catfish ponds. For those who have been cooked, catfish ponds because they felt the land wallow in the pond. Catfish cages or invoice does not feel the land because the fish cages are not reaching the river policy.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BOAT

$
0
0
We all get the urge every now and then, either to buy our first boat, or to trade the one we already have. That urge normally falls right in a time line with the local boat show going on over at the convention center, and it is a hard one to overcome. Seems that every year the boat builders add a little something extra, a lagniappe, that didn't come on the model we currently own.
Take heart if you are one of these poor souls. You have a lot of company out there. Lots of us get that urge every year.
There are a number of ways to overcome the urge, the most obvious of which is don’t go to the boat show! But if the urge really snags you, there is a method that you need to follow to overcome any emotional decision you may be trying to make.
If you are going to buy or trade boats, take a look at these issues before you go looking, and then apply the answers to any of the boats you find.

BUDGET

First and foremost, sit down and determine just how much you can afford or how much you plan to spend on a boat. People who go out blindly, particularly when financing agents are on the premise, often spend far more than they originally planned. It’s even a good idea to get pre-approved for a loan if you are borrowing, so you can deal from a position of strength and virtually pay cash for the boat. You also can make a rational decision about how much money you want to spend prior to being influenced by the boats themselves.

USE

Just how in the world are you going to use the boat? Are you a pure fisherman, or a family fisherman? Do you need a flats boat for shallow water only, a deep-V model for offshore angling, or a compromise boat – often called a bay boat? Does a bow rider or cuddy cabin better suit the needs of you family, or will they accept a pure fishing machine? You need to plan this out with your family in mind. Nothing is more miserable than a family of four trying to have an outing on a pure flats boat. It simply won’t work.

SIZE

Within your budget constraints, you need to determine just how big you boat will be. Do you plan to trailer it and keep it in your garage? If so, the whole rig can’t be longer than about twenty-two feet or it won’t fit in the garage. If you plan on a really big boat, can it be trailered? Boats over about twenty-five feet in length become very difficult to trailer without a large towing vehicle (at an additional expense!). Do you plan to store it or dock it? What kind of fishing do you plan to do? Offshore trips further than about twenty-five miles almost demand a boat capable of some very heavy seas – if only from a safety standpoint – and that means more size and more money.


POWER

Decide before you look, on the power for your boat. Inboard? Outboard? Outdrive? I have a preference for outboards, but your circumstance may allow you to choose something different. For sure you need to consider one of the new four cycle outboards. Pollution and emission reductions combine with super gas economy to make them the right thing to do. Go to an inboard only if you plan to be in deep water at all times. If you plan to fish inshore anywhere near shallow water, strike an inboard off your list.

MAKE

If you have made all the decisions to this point without seeing an actual boat, congratulations! You have more will power than I do! But if you have, you can pretty well describe the size and shape of the boat you want. Know that multiple manufacturers will probably make a boat that fits your needs exactly. The difference will be a choice you will have to make personally. I can’t recommend one brand over another here, but I can tell you that some boats are built better than others. Is the fiberglass hand laid fabric or chopped and blown? A hand laid hull is the superior product – and it will cost more. Is the boat built from a composite material such as Kevlar? Does it have a liner or is it a speckled, rolled-edge boat? Both of these features affect the price. The best policy is to get on the web and find some independent evaluations of various models. Several saltwater magazines offer reports in every issue of boats they have tested. They list the good and bad points.

FINALLY

This last piece of the exercise is where it gets really hard. Remember, sales people are involved in this, and the pressure will be on to sign on the dotted line. Take your time, evaluate, and compare. It’s the only way to make a good decision.
You may note that I have not mentioned haggling for a good price. Just like automobiles, boats have a sticker price and a price at which the dealer will sell. Your job, once you pinpoint the boat you want, will be to get the best price. On that issue, I can’t help! I can only ask you to leave emotions out of it! That particular boat isn’t the last model they will ever make. Your life will go on if you don’t buy it today! So, don’t let the salesman intimidate you into buying.
I hope this helps some wayward soul that has seen the boat of his dreams and can’t let that money burn holes in his pockets any longer! Two last pieces of advice I learned from my father:

  1. In the long run, it always pays to go first class. Cheap prices usually mean cheap products. You get what you pay for.
  2. Everything always costs more than you originally though it would! (from Murphy, I believe!)
Good Luck!

Types Of Boats

A number of factors come into play when choosing the right boat for you. One of the major classifications for recreational fishing boats is whether they are intended for inshore or offshore use.

Inshore Fishing Boat

These boats are used in shallow waters with land easily in sight. Inshore boats are normally smaller than offshore fishing boats and are a lot more affordable. They often have shallower hulls and lower gunnels, and are used on flats, lakes, ponds, and rivers.
An example of an inshore boat is the Pelican Predator fishing boat. This small lightweight fishing boat can be used to fish for a variety of inshore species. For example, it can be used as a bass, pike, or walleye fishing boat.

Offshore Fishing Boat

 

Offshore fishing is a lot more complex and dangerous than inshore fishing. An ocean fishing boat needs to be larger and sturdier to withstand the elements. Owning an offshore boat is an expensive luxury and is not affordable for the average recreational angler. For that reason, there are many saltwater fishing boat charters available to cater to the recreational anglers who do not own a boat that is fit for an offshore adventure.
Here is a video that demonstrates some of the excitement of offshore fishing.




Pontoon Fishing Boat

A pontoon fishing boat will normally have a flat bottom with two long tubes (called pontoons) to support it. These are low cost boats and are normally cheaper to insure than other types of boats. Pontoons have a shallow draft, which helps them avoid damage from underwater objects. They are normally better suited for calm waters with very little waves.



Drift Fishing Boat

 

Also known as the McKenzie dory or Rogue River dory, drift boats normally have a wide flat bottom and are known to be a lot more responsive than a rubber boat. These boats are often used by professional fishing guides and anglers for recreational fishing on faster flowing rivers.
Drift boats are normally constructed of three types of materials. These include wood, aluminum, and fiberglass. Each material is better suited for a different purpose. Aluminum can withstand punishment on quicker rapids, but makes a lot of noise. Wood makes for beautiful boats, but requires more upkeep. A fiberglass fishing boat is lighter than the other two and offers an improved rowing experience over the other two. You should consider these factors and your budget to maximize your drift boat fishing experience.




Jon Fishing Boat

 

The Jon fishing boat is characterized by its flatness and stability. These boats can range in size from 8' to 20', the most popular ones being around 14' fishing boats that are constructed out of wood or aluminum. The boats are known for their simplicity and ease of maintenance.
Jon boat fishing is practiced mostly in lakes and calm waters because the boat's flat overall design is best suited for such conditions.




Sport Fishing Boat

 

Sport fishing boats can offer some of the more exciting adventures an angler can have. These are fast and furious machines that take your whole fishing experience to the next level. Sport fishing boats take you far beyond what an inflatable or plastic fishing boat can ever offer. The offshore rigs allow the enthusiast to venture out on that exciting bay fishing boat trip for the giant fish that only the deep seas can offer.
Sport fishing boats can range widely in sizes and price. There is also a variety of designs for different purposes. Some are designed to go into the open ocean for the much larger fish. Other sport fishing boats are more modest in size and power and are meant for inshore lake fishing.
The boats need to be carefully matched to an appropriate fishing boat motor to extract the maximum utility from both. Fishing boat motors differ in size, power, fuel consumption, and intended use. When choosing a motor for your boat, it is highly advisable to consult a professional to match an appropriate motor to your boat.
Here is a video that discusses how important it is to match the boat to the engine.

Some of the top names in sport fishing boats include Skeeter, Ranger, Lund, Tracker, and Triton.



Jet Fishing Boat

 

The jet fishing boat differs in its propulsion technology. They boat does not use a traditional propeller. Instead, the jet boat sucks in water and then expels that water through a smaller nozzle at the stern. This creates a jet-like propulsion. These boats can run in very shallow water and are highly maneuverable.



Top 5 Things To Consider When Buying A Boat

The allure of owning a boat is very real. The quality and enjoyment of your recreational fishing experience will be greatly magnified. However, before you make any rash decisions at the local boat show, here are a couple of very important things to consider.
  1. Your Budget Be rational about your purchase and your finances. A recreational boat is a luxury item, so don't buy unless you can afford one. It is a wise idea to decide on your maximum budget before going to look for the boat. Once you are at the dealer, your decision-making may be clouded by the different bells and whistles that expensive boats offer. Avoid that buyer's remorse by deciding from the very beginning what you can comfortably spend.
  2. Decide What You Are Buying The Boat For Your fishing ambitions need to be balanced with the needs of those around you. A boat strictly for fishing is a lot different than one purchased for both fishing and family recreation. It is important to decide what kind of boat you want for the budget that you can afford. This will save a lot of bickering later on when you are accused of being selfish in purchasing a boat that only serves your own needs.
  3. Boat Size Planning Do not get stuck with an elephant in the room. You must plan for storage and transportation of the boat prior to purchase. The boat will need to fit in the confines of the storage arrangements that you decide on. Therefore, if you plan to keep the boat in your garage, measure all the dimensions first, to ascertain that the boat you buy will not disrupt your space and lifestyle.
    It is also very important to try and imagine the perfect size of boat for you within your budget. A boat that is too small to serve your needs will not make you happy for too long. You will be wishing that you had purchased the bigger boat instead rather quickly. The same stands for a boat that is too large for your needs. Carefully deciding on the right size of boat for you is of great importance.
  4. How Much Power Do You Need? When you are looking for a power boat, an important consideration is the motor. This decision often determines how fast you can go, fuel consumption, and the types of bodies of water it is best suited for. It is immensely important to match the motor to the boat. A mismatch will diminish your utility from both the boat and the motor.
  5. Shop Around It is important to do your research first, before you venture out with the purchase in mind. The internet is a great resource that allows you to browse hundreds and thousands of boats. This will give you an idea of what you may be looking for and the kind of price ranges that you can expect.
    Never rush to make your purchasing decision. Some boats can have quite steep price tags, so you must make sure that you do your due diligence before making the purchase.

RULES AND HOW MENCANDAT SQUID WATERS IN MALAYSIA

Mencandat squid (Squid Jigging) is a traditional method that does not use modern ways. Mencandat squid also have happy of its own. In the state of Terengganu have various methods commonly performed by local fishermen to catch squid. One of the most interesting and is mencandat, namely using special equipment called Candat. In the market now have various types and brands Candat made going the current situation. There are several musical Candat name is commonly used among Candat Twist, Candat Shrimp, Candat bait, and several types Candat Buntai again. Tools Candat is hook up with ten points or more attached to the tin and package with a colored cloth warni, but now hooks decorated with artificial bait shrimp fry or shiny plastic, rather than the traditional tools known as Candat Candat twist. Suitability Candat with squid to be caught should also be taken into account. Here we emphasize the capture / mencandat squid torok, cumit-cumit, ketupat and squid because the needle only way mencandat squid mengabang, squid and octopus frog little difference there.
TIME OF THE SEASON OR COMPATIBLE


At the end of March to July, the season is the most appropriate to capture / mencandat squid because strong winds northeast monsoon season in South China Sea since subsided, the squid mating and egg-laying season will start. This means squid-sea squid is far from the first visit to certain places to nest, especially around the waters near Pulau Kapas Terengganu, Pulau Bidong, Pulau Redang and a few other places. When mencandat season arrived, the waters around Kemaman, Paka, Dungun, Merchang, Marang, Kuala Terengganu, Stone Raft and Penarik like partying with kerlipan Fluorescent lights are installed at every night. Fluorescent lights that berkerlipan presence was aimed at attracting the attention of the squid are spawning in the area to gather and play in the area around the light lit the lamp. Normally time mencandat squid start dusk and dawn when the lift stopped.

Provision will increase if a person who finds the squid spawn, where millions gathered and squid spawn in one place. This place is also known as "Crate Squid". Squid pen is inhabited by millions of squid are not fish it because there is a level of pampering is too Dietary strong that they take of them (the people). If there is even fish fish Tenggiri, lakes or sharks that are outside the surrounding area to eat is squid. Candat twist in the way the most effective one, with the method appolo, Candat tied two or three on Mainline. Candat normally not revealed until the existing policy to stick to the squid Candat.

Mencandat squid usually done when the full moon rarely full because when the squid move independently, there is also in the way that mencandat because it does not target a specific place such as cuttlefish pen or in the surrounding area. Sometimes also get a lucrative results. However, squid caught in the full moon larger than the size caught in darkness. Instead, the size of the body fat will turn to long after the full moon. In time dark months more appropriate because the lights are installed will attract squid to approach the light.

A skilled pencandat will install three or four Candat on a rope. Each pencandat can obtain between 200 to 300 pound squid mencandat overnight if they indulge in the barn.

Candat TYPES AND USE.

1.Candat Twist-twist Candat usually made from tin as ballast, it also placed the combed matakail under it. Usually it is equipped with eight or more matakail which functions as a hanger squid. Dibaluti body with the cloth is usually white / red, white / green and white / blue. How to use it is enter directly from the talisman to Candat chili bound from Mainline. No need to use perambut. When Candat down, doing interesting actions and menghulur into the water disuluh Fluorescent lights. Squid will be interested in showing the movement of food and Candat menyambarnya. At that time, continue to delight and will menyentap rope attached to the hook. Candat twist for torok squid, cuttlefish and ketupat needle. Candat twist is also suitable for squid and squid mengabang frogs when you are in the area unjam or tukun only.

2. Candat bait - shaped length of steel made from lidi and combed with matakail under it. It is also equipped with eight or more commonly made matakail own. There is also Candat issued by the local company that has two sisir matakail without teracat. How mengunakannya is poked fish as bait. Fish will be injected from the tail up into the mouth of fish and chili disangkut use of the head into the next hole and Candat disangkut again before entering the fish head is close chili. There is another method using a wire tied from perambut and injected with the same method using chili and dibelit wire as pengikatnya. Next Candat just miles can be used with live or ranggung (either made from horn or Tangsi that large) that require perambut between three to five meters long. Candat time using bait, we are encouraged to extend two or three Candat with water depth, meaning a didasar, the second middle of the water and another in permuakaan water. For surface water, the weights need not be used and Ideally use a float. Fish passage, Brief, fish and nuts are suitable to serve as bait. Fish size should not exceed the length Candat.

Ugly Stik Rods - They Have What It Takes

The fact is simple math. You want the best bang for your buck in a fishing rod and Ugly Stik Rods are exactly that. Of all the tackle I have used over the years fishing here in Florida, the best for the money are Ugly Stik Rods made by Shakespeare. Fully customized or right off the shelf, they are impossible to beat when compared to the high priced imitations that cost much more. Saying that, most are really just copies of the original graphite rod developed by Shakespeare known as the Ugly Stick Rod which set a new standard in the late 1970's when it was first invented.
Anyway, power beyond compare, I have never seen one break! The graphite design was the epitome of construction techniques at that time setting a new standard for strength and durability never known before this new technology. I have hauled in gators with Ugly Stick Rods with 10 to 12 lb. line. With the superior power and flexibility, I could retrieve my lure and not waste line. Line is not cheap as you probably know! Also, you don't want it out there in the environment because it is wicked in the way it kills. Always try and get as much bad line back as possible.
A buddy of mine has been fishing 45 years in the swamps with these rods. The point being that Ugly Stik Rods have what it takes! Now, I'll tell you my favorite but this is just me and your needs would be different of course depending on what fish species you're targeting and what action may be needed to haul the big one in with your Ugly Stik Rod. Lately, I've been using Ultra Light Rods and Medium Action Rods. What I like to do is set out the Medium Action Rods using stink baits or domestic shiners for catfish and maybe even an errant bass. Here is an example of where I have fun. "Oh he's lazy," my friend's snicker behind my back and they don't think I here them as I smile to myself and out comes the Ugly Stik Ultra Light rod with 2 to 4 lb. test line. Now, I get the Beetle Spin tied on and I'm ready to go! Usually in the first cast I will get the strike! Then, every one acts like their minding their own business. Get the picture?
The Ugly Stik Ultra Light Rods are an excellent choice when strength, light weight, sensitivity, and comfort are concerned. You will not even know your holding it because it is so lightweight. I must say that all of these rods offer the same characteristics no matter what weight range you prefer or what fish species you are fishing for. The Ugly Stik Rods are all I use here in Central Florida where I mostly fish the world famous Stick Marsh and the Indian River Lagoon. Peace be with you and now go catch some fish!
