Hi Keyur
Not been going to the beach shortly, but i do go fishing every weekend..
i go to the open beach just after the jumeirah beach part (while coming from dubai to abu dhabi)its a rocky place, loosing lots
of lines but get some good small sized fish .. also got a small baracuda and a foot long cobia too -- set them free:)

Hey where did u catch this from ?? which place is it ?? what bait did you use ??
2024 years ago

Hello Meril,
This was on the border of AbuDhabi and Dubai.it is not a dam but a channel that the sea water comes in.
the bait we used was live needle fish.This was in january2010, and was a great spot for King fish that I have caught there but now that place is closed to fishing because of construction.Where do you fish which country? I am now in kuwait and trying hard to find a good spot.

Hi,
Yes it has been a good experience fishing with Malcolm. I basically started fishing for bigger species with Malcolm. Before that it was just small bream., snappers etc.
You have a good time. Good luck to you and your son :) hope to meet you some day. Lines tight, more screaming drags. !!!!
Cheers,
Lance
