Fishing Techniques

• For Redtail catfish

  Redtail catfish are ambush predators, so focus your efforts near structure such as submerged logs and weedbeds, and fish during low light conditions.

• For Golden dorado

  Target areas with fast-moving water near submerged logs or rocky outcroppings, as golden dorado often ambush prey from these locations.

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
