Sooji is most effective on Katla. So if u want katla U must use sooji if u can. in a lake or big ponds if any 2 or 3 angler use Sooji Laddu all of other hookbait formula is failed.

make suji laddu using sooji with hadia, ghee, oil, sweetner, ants egg etc..

use Some Coconut oil & Fresh Butter when Throw the Laddu Bait.

what is panchui?

its "hariya" the fermented rice without water

thank u...

hey grc pic will coming soon... its not just bait its a atom bomb for katla..... if all of us using this method then i am dam sure that indian govt will open a department named - Katla Conservation Department

do not use this formula regularly.... use some other feeder methods that AliBhai mentioned earlier.. lets save some fishes.... and yes release some fishes if possible..

Hahahahahaha .. Good one Biltu .. Will definitely share recipes to catch catlas but just keep the jhoopies out of it ..

Let's meet up these holidays and wet a line.. We have some fellow anglers and it will be great to share stuff ..

hello anglers i am going to balaghata lake on 29th of november..
any kind of bait or ground bait suggestion specially for balaghata lake ?????

please... i am going to this lake first time and want to catch at list 1 fish your help is needed....






thanks
susanta

help needed for belaghata lake... subhas sorabor..

susanta.... you are gearing up for the competition. nobody catching any big ones at the moment , hope it changes by the time competition starts. i wont be surprised if somebody win motorcycle with just 2 kg fish.
beliaghata lake is very unpredictable. the best bet will be to hire local helper(shikari ) . they know all the recipes which will work there .

any kind of bait idea will help me which works there....
even i don't know how big the lake is... i never go there before....
and i am going on 29 of november.... any IA members can come to help me....

Dear Susanta,

I have been visiting the Beleghata lakes quite often and have been catching quite a few fish but nothing bigger than 2-3kgs.. For the jhoopie fishermen, the laddoo ball is not allowed so they use bread bait.. However they make a small laddoo ball and then put the bread baited hooks around it.. Lapping is done and then dipped in narkel pocha and casted off.

I advise you to sit on seats 44, 45 (good seats for pangas and rohu - today a pangas of 3kgs was caught from 44 when I was there), 54, 55, 58, 59, 84 - 96, 100, and the VIP seats are good seats to sit on.. Currently a lot of people are fishing the west bank from seats 80-96..

I will try to make it on November 24, however its a long way off.. Give me a buzz and we'll plan something..

come on 29 th gavin and rod and reels... i was there at29 surely.... i am very interested to meet u both....

gavin i will be sitting ther for two days 29th and 30th. Mr foning will be there too. hope to catch you there.
susanta the seats are allotted by lottery so no point looking for good or bad seats. good luck in advance

Will try and make it on the 29th and 30th.. Ideally these are the better days to fish as you know how the fish are feeding and what are the sizes that are being caught.. Fishing on the first two days is like flying blind.. But then Beleghata has always been unpredictable.. Fingers crossed..

Lets meet up before that.. We can have a sort of meeting for all the Bong anglers (and fishermen)

Tight Lines,
GRC

Fisherman??? U wanna Really meet them????? strange

thanks mr. rod and reels.. i will be glad to meet u... and good luck to u also... see u in balaghata lake...

but how can i identify u???

GRC,-Hope to accompany u on 24th,will be coming to Kol.

Rod n reel : give best rgds to Mr phoning,not met since a long

Sushanta-on the Swabhumi side,there is a person -Dilip da,who sells masala,take my reference(mukherjee da-ex secreatary -laldighi), he will definitely guide u on particular seats where u sit & will also send local angler to help u out.

take haria from bacchu da & lal bakor from dilip da. dont use narkel pocha too much there.work only on bhat polao,haria & lal bakor.

dist for bait -45-50ft depending on seats

for rohu take help of GRC.

all the best
Nil

Thanks Nil for directing all rohu queries towards me.. Rohu is the reddish fish na
But seriously, Nil, 23rd and 24th we will sit along with Mr Panda and catch prizes 1, 2 & 3.. And when nobody is watching we will release the fish and give others a chance to get the prizes

Biltu - Off the bank, I treat all persons (anglers and fishermen) equally, however when am fishing, I feel differently for the fishermen.. I am still open to a meeting before the competition..

Susanta - You are welcome to be our guest when we are fishing.. And dont worry about identifying rods and reels, as he will be the one catching the biggest fish on that day and riding the motorcycle home

Tight Lines,
GRC

Nil i will certainly convey your regards to Mr Foning.

Susanta if you see a dark guy with pony tail fishing with spinning setup in beliaghata , its me.

Gavin you seriously exaggerated about my fishing abilities. i am champion of catching the smallest of fish in any waterbody . today i was fishing in lal dighi and i managed to catch 20-22 odd fishes but non was above 200gms.

And all were 200gms bigger than what everyone else caught

Tight Lines,
GRC

I dont catch anything.. They catch themselves While fishermen fish, anglers catch

BTW Biltu - Are you coming for the competition ? There are no chemical fish here

Tight Lines,
GRC

i don't need any kind of prize... i just want to catch a fish more than 500 gms... help with bait...... and ground bait

Just to keep you guys posted.. Yesterday, my fellow IA member and good friend, Rajeswar Panda and myself fished at Beleghata and caught 2 rohus.. One was about 800gms and the other was close to 5kgs.. Unfortunately, no pics of the big rohu as it was caught on the last bait of the day and in total darkness..
And since forum rules dont allow for posting of dead fish, we could not post the photo of the pic taken at home...

For all you guys who want to verify the claim (and I believe that there will be a few), we were sitting on seat #82...

I think the gauntlet has been thrown down for the competition
