Awesome spot and with that strong current running is always a possibility that GT’s are around. I too look for these same spots in my part part of the world. Also, you had some nice MJ’s and a barracuda added into the mix as well. Well done mate and Happy Birthday too 🍻
You always choose perfect water body locations, where you have individual angling pleasure with out any interference of others. Good catch GT. Best place to see.
Happy Birthday Bro I loved to fish this spot another in Morgalla beach mouth of the Maha Ganga..big Cudas their...Dickwella is also very good and further south Tangalle..enjoy yourself bro..
Thank you so much! I'm back in Bangalore now since Sunday. Will try and get back to SL in December. Will try the spots you had mentioned. Thanks again for the info! Would love to see your fish pics from when you were there.
Amazing catches, beautiful location overall a great video brother!! And happy 40th Birthday... We would love more of your true angling content... I'd be more than excited to meet you if you stop by Kanyakumari for a fishing session anytime soon..!! Ima Huge fan 😂 🙌
Thanks man! I have subscribed to your channel as well. You have some great content there. That spot produced very well for a couple of days and then it was completely dead for the next three days. Let's fish together the next time I'm there
@@KonkanFishing yes bro..that cuda was insane.they tend to attack the prey from down and let it fly.the reason why I lost three cuda strikes last season.😅
Good luck! Don't be disappointed if there are no fish caught. I fished this place a few days and only 2 out of all those days were productive. Just like fishing most places I guess.
great video! what kind of leader do you use? I have never fished in the indian ocean but will soon make a trip there. i guess barracudas like to bite through the line, so do you also use steel/titanium tips sometimes or does that scare the fish away too much? Thanks in advance
Thank you! I pretty much use 50# fluorocarbon leader. I do not use wire leader and have plenty of Cudas and don't have an issue most of the times. There will be an odd break off here and there and if you're not using using lures made of gold (if you know what I mean), or if you're using a short lure that the Cuda could easily swallow, you don't need a steel leader in my opinion :)
Happy birthday maruthu... How did u transport your rod to srilanka? I'm assuming it's a 2 piece. And what's the reel that you are using here? Nice catches man!
Hey, how diameter shock leader do you use ? He strong vs barracuda? Some time latter I will going to Sri Lanka in passikudah beach , and now I think about my tackles. I would like fishing from the beach and rocks. Thank you.
I normally use 40# fluorocarbon leader. Sometime 50# fluorocarbon leader while fishing from the beach and such. Most times, the barracuda will not break you off if you're fishing a long plug that that like to hit. They could even bite through wire leader. However, my advise would be to used a light leader and a longer plug as the barracuda will try to bit the plug first before swallowing, which means that you're very much likely safe from break offs. Lighter leader helps to hook into many fish. Hope that helps!
Hi! Thanks for your video, it’s amazing! Today I’ll be arrive to weligama. Can you text me, where is that beautiful place? May be, reference point, or coordinate. I wanna try to) Thanks again and I’ll waiting for new video in your channel 🙏
Thank you! If you're traveling from Welligama to Mirissa, you'll see a bridge in between both the places. You can make a right just before the bridge and get to the place where the estuary meets the sea and that is the place where I was fishing. Good luck and sorry for my late reply.
@@KonkanFishing thank you for helping again. I have been to this place. caught some good snappers. One massive barracuda attacked the popper, but missed, like in your video. it was fun)
Thank you for reverting back with your fishing report. Glad you caught some fish. Wish you had caught that barracuda. I'm in Ireland now and can't wait to fish that part of the world again.
@@KonkanFishing yeah 👍I got sick and hope to go fishing a few more times. including for that barracuda. and GR in my plan)) I already caught one, but it was the size of a palm 😁
This was the river in between Welligama and Mirissa beach. Don't know the name of the river, but I hope that Google maps will get you there without a hassle. I hope that helps.
There was current, rocks, bait and this was an estuary mouth. That's good enough for me to think that there were big fish in the shallows feeding on bait by ambushing them next to the structure in the current 😊
@@KonkanFishing this me from another account and i wanted to say that i always ask questions because i wanna get all the knowledge i can because i love fishing but forget to talk about your videos. dont think that i dont like them.love ur videos and awesome location
This was the 9'6" Major Craft Soulpara rod rated for 40 to 80 gram lures. The twin power seems like a big reel bro. Not sure what would be a good rod for that. I am guessing an 8' heavy popping rod.
Initially thought you run towards her to show the trophy, but later understood that you done to revive that GT too, Respect bro 👌
Thank you! I didn't have the pliers to unhook the fish. Hence I had to run 😊
Im vegetarian but i still like watching fishing ........ok ok no problem very very first class catching 😁🎣🐟💯
Haha! Thanks man
as a Sri Lankan i am so proud of you, I have seen your enjoying with fishing. and blended wishes Happy Birthday , I am Sujeewa from Doha Qatar.
Thank you so much! I hope you are enjoying some good fishing in Doha. I love the beauty and the fishing in Sri Lanka. Can't wait to go back next year.
Wow dts amazing 👍🏻 huge GT , good keep going 👍🏻🎣
Thank you
Happy Birthday friend and awesome release GT,MJ and location wonderful 🎣 happy fishing 🎣

HBD bro.... Nice catch and awesome spot....
Thanks bro

Thank you so much!
When I hooked into that barracuda. Hopefully sometime soon...
That’s a fine GT video from the shore! I knew you would be landing some big fish when I saw you fishing the spinning gear😉
Haha! It is true with the spinning gear though. I think the main reason being, fast line pickup, which gives more control over the lure.
Awesome catch bro 🎣❤❤✌✌keep going forward 🤜🤛
Thank you 🙏
Awesome fishing mate.. 👌🏻❤😍
Thanks man 🙏
You always choose perfect water body locations, where you have individual angling pleasure with out any interference of others.
Good catch GT. Best place to see.
Thank you! That's probably because I just mark places on google maps and fish them and don't ask people for fishing spots.
Nice to see you back brother,..
Thank you brother...
Can't wait to catch a barracuda...
Happy birthday💐 and happy catches🎣

I don't think so. May be a travel rod
What time of day was this? I'm in mirissa right now and looking for more shore spots
This was in the evening before it got dark.
Nice brother 🎉
