Vela Solina

Vela Solina, on the coast of Šibensko-kninska županija, Croatia, is a saltwater spot best fished around the change of tide. Casting from the shore, look for any seam where deeper water meets shallow — the edge of a sandbar, the lip of a reef, the corner of a harbour entrance. From a boat, you can drift the same edges, dropping lures or bait into the strike zone with each pass.

Fishing Techniques

• For White seabream

  Use a light line and small hooks, as White Seabream are cautious and can be easily spooked.

• For Common octopus
