Seabass - 7 Lbs from Portugal! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Ramos23 · 12-30-2011, 02:43 PM

Hi!

Yesterday, I had the day off, so I went in the morning, to the Tejo River to have some trolling action,

It was 08:00 when I reached the place of departure and to be honest with how cold it was, nor did I feel like it was going into the water,

But as I had made the trip, there had to be

Lures in water and after a few brave "cycling" on my Revolution there was no cold!

After two hours of trolling, I catch a beautiful seabass with my rapala taildancer

There´s the photo

Best Regards

Nice! Is that a freshwater or saltwater fish?

Ramos23 · 12-30-2011, 02:55 PM

Saltwater fish and they enter the mouth of the river where the water is salty

Thanks for the report. It looks like December in Portugal is as nice as it is here in Southern California.

Sweet!

How do you guys call it - lubin, lubina? I've caught a few of those back in the Adriatic. We were doing it "peskafondo" style (I believe it's Italian word?) - basically, just a line in your hand, nor rod & reel.

Pretty sure it's the same fish.

3+ kilo is a big deal! Congrats!

Robalo is how we call "Snook" in South America, a salt water bay fish like the ones in Florida.

I'm not sure the exact weight that can be achieved, but some sometimes are captured with 20 pounds,
