Advantages of Fishing in Raja Ampat
If you intend to fish in Raja Ampat using any fishing techniques such as bottom, jigging, Gt popping Raja Ampat or trolling, there are several advantages, here are the advantages of fishing in Raja Ampat:
Beautiful Fishing Grounds
When you fish in ordinary places such as lakes or other public fishing spots, then of course there is no beautiful scenery that you can see while waiting for your hook to be bitten by a fish. For some people, this can be very boring because sometimes it takes a very long time to get a fish.
If you’re fishing in Raja Ampat, you don’t have to worry about this because you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to the scenery. Imagine waiting for your line to move while enjoying the beautiful nature of Raja Ampat such as the blue sea and the view of the island in the distance.
Challenging Fishing
If you’re fishing at a public fishing spot, the pond is already stocked with fish by the fishing provider. This will certainly be able to reduce the excitement of fishing because you do not need additional skills and only need to wait until the hook bites by the fish and then pull it out.
Different things will happen if you fish in other places such as the open sea in Raja Ampat. Not only you will need extra patience, but your fishing skills will also be put to the test as you’ll need specialized skills to get the fish you want. Not only that, strength will also be needed because you might have to fight with large and agile fish.
Different Types of Fish You Can Get
Getting a Raja Ampat fishing package also means that you can potentially get a lot of diverse types of fish. This is because the Raja Ampat marine tourism area is world-renowned as one of the most biodiverse underwater habitats in the world.
However, you should know that this place is also a conservation area, so many of the fish species here are protected and prohibited from fishing.
