The Bali Trolling Fishing Tour offers an exciting fishing adventure in the waters around the Bali islands. Trolling involves dragging one or more baited fishing lines through the water, either behind a moving boat, by slowly reeling in the line from a stationary position, or by sweeping the line side-to-side from a jetty. This method is particularly effective for catching pelagic fish like mackerel and kingfish, and is commonly used in game fishing for larger open-water species such as tuna and marlin.
Trolling lures are attached to fishing lines using knots like the improved clinch knot or snaps, and the lines are connected to reels mounted on fishing rods. The motion of the lures can be generated by reeling in the line, sweeping or jigging the rod, or simply trolling behind a moving boat. Unlike artificial flies used in fly fishing, trolling lures are designed to imitate small fish or other prey and are trolled at speeds ranging from 1 to 15 knots.
The speed of trolling is crucial for success and varies depending on the target species, weather conditions, and other factors. For instance, Chinook salmon can be trolled at higher speeds compared to lake trout. Fishermen often use speed-tracking devices, trolling motors, and trolling plates to maintain the optimal speed. Even kayaks equipped with rod holders can be used for effective trolling.
This tour offers a comprehensive and thrilling fishing experience, making it perfect for both novice and experienced anglers looking to catch a variety of fish in the vibrant waters of Bali.
