Trophies in Tagus River (Lisbon) - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Sparrow · 05-20-2014, 08:57 AM

In Portugal we are in full season for fishing Corvina (Argyrosomus regius), and me and my buddies Ramos and Bruno were trying to get our trophies in Tagus River near Lisbon.

Let you the photo report:

On the way to the hot spot

nice kayak

The first Corvina of the day

At sunset, when I've despaired, got my big capture

And at the end of the day photo shoot on land with all the catches:

The biger one with 25kg (caught by Bruno)

This one 21Kg... (caught by Ramos)

My catches 19kg for the Corvina and 3,6kg for the Ray.

Congrats

What a session. I'm curious as to what the limits are out there for this fish? Length, number?

Cbad Mike · 05-20-2014, 12:24 PM

Very nice haul!
Thanks for sharing.

PapaDave · 05-20-2014, 02:37 PM

Nice catch! Are those similar to the Corvina we have here? Or maybe WSB?

The camera I use it's a old "Nikon coolpix 4500", but some pics are inproved with HDR software (thats the case

)

Very nice fish indeed!!!!

That's a big boy, congrats

Very nice! Portugal seems so exotic in my mind but looking at your pictures the port could be one of our very own. That's comforting some how.

How do you cook the ray? I would love to see pics of how you prepare both fish.
