Bali Fishing: Back to Lombok, October 27th to 29th 2011
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011/11/back-to-lombok-october-27th-to-29th.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Saturday, November 5, 2011. Back to Lombok, October 27th to 29th 2011. Until last week, I had not been able to fish since May, so a quick two and half day trip across the Strait to Lombok was eagerly anticipated. Upon arrival, the anticipation levels rose even further as the currents were really swirling and there just had to be fish. And a large 18-20kg Barracuda. Lombok is so underfished for a place that is relatively ...

Bali Fishing: Mid-April 2011 - back to Lombok
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011/05/mid-april-2011-back-to-lombok.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Monday, May 2, 2011. Mid-April 2011 - back to Lombok. The last trip across the strait to Lombok left me distinctly disappointed, so this time I was on something of a mission with my friends Ben and Jon from Australia. There was enough action to keep us all on our toes. The best by-catch was Jon's nice Red Bass and a sizeable Great Barracuda which was Ben's first fish on a heavy popping set up.

Bali Fishing: Some nice GTs for Christmas
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2012/01/some-nice-gts-for-christmas.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Tuesday, January 3, 2012. Some nice GTs for Christmas. Well it was supposed to be a Boxing Day treat from me and to me, but that was scuppered by yet another last minute call from my normal boat saying they had mechanical problems. That's happened far too many times lately and not happy about it. The spin cycle was on maximum. One notable event was catching consecutive fish with the first two casts with my new Super Popp...

Bali Fishing: Bali jigs
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011/03/bali-jigs.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Thursday, March 3, 2011. I often get asked about jigs which are made in Bali. There is no doubt that this small island has something of a reputation for producing decent quality jigs at very low prices. I will try here to profile the main brands, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. Adhek Bali Jigs in 700, 500, 400 and 350 grams. These jigs are available direct from Adhek Bali. Or is it Tong Hui? I have never bee...

Bali Fishing: April 2011
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Monday, April 4, 2011. Lombok and Sumbawa - end March 2011. A good deal of amusement was had by all on the last day when Ryan's Heru Cubera 150 was picked up by a Lesser Frigatebird that seemed keen to make off with it before a sharp tug convinced it otherwise :) . That popper was seemingly cursed as only moments later it was donated to the reef Gods by a cast that was, shall we say, a little too energetic. Welcome to my...

Bali Fishing: Lombok again, November 12th and 13th 2011
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011/11/lombok-again-november-12th-and-13th.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Lombok again, November 12th and 13th 2011. As previously mentioned, I was off to Lombok again with friends for November full moon period. Sadly, there could not have been a bigger contrast to the previous trip. The first day gave us no fish at all. The second was a little better (but not much! This trip was a great example of how fickle our sport can be! November 17, 2011 at 12:44 AM. Thanks m...

Bali Fishing: February 2011
http://balisportfishing.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
A fishing blog about popping and jigging in Bali and elsewhere in eastern Indonesia. Saturday, February 26, 2011. February 26th 2011 - GTs gone quiet but a very good Amberjack. 18-20kg Amberjack - a very good fish for Bali. Fish, so we had certainly found a strike zone. Notably all the strikes were on Taiwanese LJ jigs which are designed for Amberjack and other seriolas. Unfortunately, after this fish was landed the current picked up a lot and we were unable to reach the fish with any precision. My last ...
