Besides chalking out the best spots to experience some awesome fishing here what you all need to know is about the fish especially if it is a bonefish.
So let us take here some handy tips to get a better hand for bone fishing at Christmas Island:
- First thing first, what to pack?
Besides checking your passport to be already in your bag, carry stuff that is comfortable and casual. For most of the time you need to wade through the waters for a catch. Shorts, t- shits, sandals and such stuff are great though while wading long sleeved shirts and pants are preferable. Flat boots make a better choice over wading sandals. Polarized sunglasses helps you see the fishes properly and if you are a safe angler get a raincoat to manage in occasional thunder showers. A bandana or swimsuit is also good to carry. A sunscreen and lip balm is must to avoid that weary tanned look the end of the day especially must if your skin is prone to sun stroke.
Fish found primarily on the flats at various depths ranging from 1to 5 feet. The fish here weighs form2 to 10 ponds. These are strong and quite quick to give repeated fast turns. And presence of salt water makes it tougher to catch.
- Fishing gears you need to know:
Rods: Remember the bone fish here can weigh from 2 to 10 pounds so its better to have 8 weight, 7 weight and 9 weight rods. An extra rod is always recommendable.
Reels: A best quality reel capable of handling 200 yards of 30 lb. Extra spools with backing is always wise to carry. Reels may be of large arbor design, simple to smooth to sealed drag and should be quite durable for salt water.
Lines: specifically salt water lines are mandatory. Back up fly line is again required here as these are lost or destroyed by corals and fishes.
Flies: these should be sparsely tied. To have each type of fly tied in many different weight categories is important. From no lead, to lead eyes, to bead chain, the selection of weights must be incorporated into the flies.
Leaders: For 10 to 15 lbs 9 to 12 feet with a clear filament is must.
