Fishing for LEERFISH

 

Caught from time to time, leerfish stay extremely close to the surface and have a marked preference for very small lures, poppers or stickbaits.

 

If you are bent on catching one, the skipper should be able to take you to the right spots. They love the rip currents at the edge of sandbanks and gorgeous specimens are caught regularly on a famous wreck situated offshore.

 

Its darting runs are particularly violent and surprising for its size and the fight powerful when the fish exceeds 7/8 kg.

 

A pleasure to catch and … to eat, a “fillet a la plancha” while ensuring the perfect cooking time and accompanied with small crunchy 200% organic vegetables ***.
