The humble Common Snakehead is often overlooked and taken for granted. In actual fact, they are the perfect predator - totally evolved to live and hunt in very harsh environments often found in this part of the world. They are smart and vary hunters that are totally adept at going after terrestrial prey too. The game of Snakehead fishing is thus a very exciting one, where angler pits skill and tackle against a very formidable adversary.
Recently we had a chance to chase some in the protected enclaves of a private property. They weren't easily fooled though, as only the best methods and lures worked. We found that these denizens were highly trained and we old wiley warriors...
 |
| One of the most successful lures anywhere in freshwater is the Jackall TN vibe. After unsuccessful attempts with other lures, this TN worked with the Jackall Nero spin rod did the trick and the first Common Snakehead hits the dirt... |
 |
| This is the new DUO Realis Shad 62DR. A versatile lure which will see plenty more action in the future... |
 |
| Not the biggest one in the pond but a satisfying capture nonetheless, especially on the new ultra light Major Craft Go-Emotion Floater Special spin rod... |
 |
| Once the code was unlocked the hits came. Another nice one give the Jackall Nero rod a workout... |
 |
| The Jackall TN scores again... |
 |
| The DUO Realis Shad 62DR proves the first wasn't a fluke when its taken deep by a good fish... |
 |
| One doesn't get bored of these beautiful fishes... |
 |
| These fish are fit as a fiddle and the fights are to be savoured, especially on the light gear... |
 |
| The old faithful DUO Realis Shad 52MR proves it still has a spot in any box... |
 |
| A fat fish on the Go-Emotion Floater Special... |
 |
| This one fell for a twitched DUO Spearhead Ryuki... |
 |
| Another nice voluptuous specimen hits the deck after a spirited fight... |
 |
| The Jackall Diving Chubby is another phenomenal lure for these type of fishing... |
 |
| This big Striped Catfish created quite a stir with its strong take and long runs on the light set up... |
 |
| Not your normal lure capture on the Jackall TN Vibe... |
 |
| The deviate from the species list a little further with this Red Devil on the Jackall TN as well... |
 |
| And with this nice Tilapia as well... |
 |
| The Jackall TN Vibe really performs... |
 |
| Doesn't take too long to find another one, says alot about an amazing lure... |
 |
| The Jackall TN Vibe, if you don't already have a few in your box now's the time... |
 |
| The Iyoken Sound is one of a few versions the Jackall TN Vibe comes in... |
 |
| These Red Devils are aggressive little customers... |
 |
| We get back to the Snakehead action with another nice one... |
 |
| This time the DUO Realis Vibe scores... |
 |
| With two consecutive hits from nice fish... |
 |
| DUO Realis Vibe 52 makes a perfect casting partner to the Go-Emotion Floater spin rod... |
 |
| We cap the session off with a last fish on the Major Craft Jerkbait, one of the most under rated lures we've seen launched of late... |
