Fishing in the Gulf

From the author: A day of rest in the UAE dedicated to fishing. The local tour operator bought the ticket. Price $ 95. Promised 4:00 fishing, you pick up with the hotel and bring it back.
At 6 am behind me came the ship's captain, who is also a guide. 15 minutes and we are on an old small boat. There we waited mate and 2 fisherman-tourist. We met, fishing will be with Yuri from Russia and Kazakhstan Yesenia, I'm from Ukraine. Guides Palestinians (in the pictures in the yellow hoodie), was born in the Emirates, the Russian language is taught at the beach. Engaged in fishing with his brother for 20 years, each with its own boat. For a license to pay $ 50,000 a year.




Go with the small harbor. The output in the Gulf, we stop near a police vessel, the captain showing our passports and visas, instead he is given some kind of card.



As long as we are moving away from the shore begins to dawn. As a guide, in the Emirates night fishing is prohibited.



After 15-20 minutes to get to the place of fishing. The depth at which the fish will be about 20 meters.



You can go further, at a depth of 50 meters to catch sharks. But it's a different price - $ 1000. Sharks are caught are not large, about 1 meter in length.

Around a lot of ships at anchor. The UAE does not produce most of the goods imported from neighboring countries by sea.



Gave tackle. A little disappointing. We will catch on Donkey: a coil of line, load, and at the end of three hooks. They said that all the while engaged in fishing, always caught. They tried spinning, but their awkward catching vessel, and tourists often break expensive gear and pay for them do not want.



As the nozzle cutting squid from the local supermarket.



And here is the first fish.



The fish bite very well. Only the bait sink to the bottom - right bite. Basically caught barracuda and sea bass (at least so he called the guide). For the first half hour we have a solid number of fish. The truth is much pleasure from such fishing does not work, it all resembles fishing. But if it's yes spinning !!!



On this barracuda until it pulled out, 5 meters from the surface was attacked by a barracuda even larger.



Esen waiting for a bite. As soon as the sun began to rise, biting worsened.



The captain and his assistant got a Coke and sandwiches, breakfast started. Usually tours provide a meal, they are not offered. After eating, they began to throw empty bottles and bags into the water. We began to resent the guide was first answer: "And you have that, do not do that !?". Next meaningless conversation. It was not nice ...



Jessen got bought in duty free souvenir. How do without it! This greatly brightened the shortcomings of our fishing.



For fishing! Not every day you have the opportunity to fish in the Gulf. And the company we have selected a very good! Not enough yet representative belorussii.Rybalka become much more interesting, despite the fact that the bite had virtually ceased. The higher the sun rose the worse was biting in 8 hours it stopped altogether.



That's the beauty pecked. Enough plump. But they said that it does not eat - there is no meat. Released back.



Not far from us to fish went fishing boat. They will be fishing in a month. On the roof there are baskets in which to live caught fish to return to the land.



Caught us barracuda. It is said that half an hour after the salting they can have.



Approximately 1 - 2 kg each.



This fishing guide called pasta. He said that it is the most delicious of our catch.



But our entire catch. Each of us took a few of stuff with him, the other left. If you believe the words of the guide, barracudas local restaurants buy for $ 10 per kg, perches for $ 7. From 4:00 promised, the total fishing time was 1.5 hours. Argumentirovalitem that we do not properly explained to the time when buying a round.



This morning I picked up the car from the hotel. It was a pleasant surprise to ride the city at night, ahead of all in its path.



Back to the hotel brought in an open convertible, rolled along the waterfront.



The restaurant at $ 16 an agreement with the Indians to cook my catch. After 40 minutes in the room brought the charcoal grilled fish. By the way, very tasty.
