To successfully fish sea bream with the surfcasting technique, you need to know the right thing to do. Below are some tips to help.
Assembling and baiting
Once the spot has been chosen, you must bring fresh and/or live bait. For the sea bream, sliding setting are preferred so that the sea bream does not feel any resistance when it sows the bait.
Setting and baiting with lugworm (or any other worm such as hard, jumbo, bibi, tube worm, American worm):
Lugworm (mud worms) can be used and recovered at low tide under the small serpentine mounds. It can be dug up with a shovel or fork (the fork is less damaging to these fragile animals). Jumbo can also be found on our beaches. For the other worms, it is advisable to buy them directly from fishing shops.
Strengths:
- Very attractive for sea bream
- Fits well on the hook
- Easy to find
Weaknesses:
- Difficult to look for
- Not very selective â you can take plaice, sole, Pollack... or even small bars that you should not hesitate to release.
Mounting
Between the knots and the lead, it is advisable to put beads to avoid any breakage (lead can rub at the knots and eventually wear the thread).
Baiting
The worm is threaded all the way through a wormhole needle. The tip of the needle is placed on the tip of the hook and the worm is transferred from the needle to the hook. The worm often has one of its ends at the bottom of the line. This technique has the advantage of not damaging the worm too much and fixing it in such a way that the sea bream sows the entire bait and all of a sudden.
Mounting and baiting with soft or hard crab
Soft crabs are excellent for the sea bream. These soft crabs are crabs that are moulting (changing shells). Their appearance is a little whitish. They can be fished by hand under pebbles or in rocks at low tide. Soft crabs are rarer than hard crabs, so be patient when you pick them up. As dorados have a powerful jaw that allows them to crush their prey, they can also engulf hard crabs.
Strengths:
- Relatively easy to find
- Very attractive for sea bream
- Fits well on the hook
- Rather selective, few other species will bite (sea bream or sea bass)
Weakness:
- Very difficult to find and present on the hook
Baiting
There are many techniques to build a crab and each fisherman will tell you that his is the best.
The first way is to hook him with a single hook on the hind legs that have been removed beforehand. The crab will keep its mobility and make itself more attractive to predators.
For the second, try to catch the crab with two hooks, which will limit the risk of stalling during the throw and limit the losses when you hook the fish. With this method, the fish are still more suspicious. One hook will be passed through the belly, which comes out through the back, and the other in the other direction.
In both cases, for more comfort, you can also tie the crab to the hooks.
