techniques.
Spinning
An easy style to learn recommended for beginners since it gives
the fisherman ease and swiftness while at the same time it is
easy to operate even in the most difficult conditions. Fishing
rods between six and seven and a half feet and use jig type
lures special for this type of fishing, in white, yellow, green
and others.
Fly Fishing
It is the most difficult to learn. This style combines hunting
ability and capturing techniques and fights with light fishing
rods. The bait (fly) imitates a bonefish catch and it is made
from either natural or synthetic material. The lures (flies) are
light but heavy enough to sink quickly to the bottom, where this
species usually feeds. Fly fishing is different to other
technique in that a relatively heavy wire is used which thrusts
the lure into the air almost quite close to the fish; 15 to 20
meters of wire have a higher weight than the lead used in other
techniques. This method demands special mastering when making a
long cast and presenting the fly in a natural way without
scaring the fish away.
For Los Roques it is recommended rods 8wt and 9wt. In regards to
the bait the following are the best: Pink Puff, The horror, crab
patterns, Crazy Charlie, Chico Fernandez Especial, Clouser
Minnows, all in sizes 4 and 6.

Fishing on your own.
To fish in Los
Roques it is necessary to pay the daily fee $8 to the local
authority for the right to fish in the archipelago and then
requesting a permit from Inparques.
It is allowed to
fish on your own only in the zona de recreation and fishing by
the shore. If you wish to fish in other areas (controlled
natural environment or primitive marine) you must hire a
specialized guide, authorized by a fishing operation who is
likewise certified by the local authority.

Alternatively you
can charter a live aboard, sailboat or yacht where you can make
some bonefish expeditions together with the captain on your own.
This is recommended
for the real obsessed fisherman. |
