Methods of rigging with Gambli and what have you caught with Gambli or squid

[intermilan]

I would like to know any new ideas for this subject.

What is the best method of rigging using gambli or squid (using rod and reel for casting) and as well, I know usually we catch the usual bottom fish with Gambli / Squid, but has anybody caught some decent sized fish with Gambli/squid from land? and if so, what setup they had?

And as well was it very deep or not?

I would love to know other experiences other members had?

Usually we use squid from land aswell and we catch sargi and the occasional pagella. Depth +/- 30m.

Intermilan...are you talking day fishing or night fishing??

[placebo]

i found them very good for bream fishing (sargi) using the pole rod with just a line from top to bottom a nice sized hook and some splitshots as weight.

Sometimes i also use the fresh small shrimps (i catch myself from MSkala or Mxlokk). They are hook size and are wonderful for breams (pagell) and other bottom fish.

in such cases i normally use the running ledger method.

At M'scala I use a fishing net (kopp) and drifting the net near the quay (moll). I prefer to go after midnight for the shrimps when the sea is calm.To buy them I agree with you they are expensive.

I never did well using shrimps, being using a pole or a casting rod. With a casting rod i do not fins them so hardy and with the pole the small fish eat the bait very quickly. (english translation)   [bigboy]

I used squid this week and caught alot, with the same piece never falling off I kept using it and kept catching. I could throw out very far even in heavy winds. Gambli is good, but is delicate. I prefer squid as even the fish when they bite they keep biting without it falling off.

Live bait is the best but I would like to buy some pellets etc for the occasional unplanned shore reel casting fishing trip, any ideas?

[camkev]

I don't know if the pellets are good for shore reel casting fishing .but you can use squid or freezed worms like bibi or hniex ta l imperjal.Just keep them in portions in the freezer so they don't thaw everytime you take out the whole lot.When you re freeze them a few times you have to throw everything away my friend.

[joemark]

Thanks I will look into pellets, would like to keep everything in my car for that after work getaway...

in my opinion gambli is no good for rigging. i think Squid is much much better. Small fish attack it and dont make the bait go off while a burqax will surely be caught.

Always be cerfull where you are rigging. if the place has a lot of rocks you may easiely get stuck.
