I don't know, but I'm addicted to fishing now. So far over the past 3 weeks I've caught 8 fishes, ranging 10 to 15 inches long. Going with my neighbours to Pierce reservoir to fish, I've caught all my fishes there with hand lines all the time. And of the 3 trips there, only once was a fish caught by my neighbour who was using a rod. Amazing. But I guess that at the area that we fish, the fishes there are more prone to hand lines.
According to a website I visited, predator fishes tend to feed nearer to the surface when there's abundant light so as to be able to see their prey better. Also, they tend to be more active when the surrounding air pressure is low. As we fish at night from a pier with strong lighting, the fishes will tend to come near to the pier, therefore increasing my chances of catching fishes with a hand line. Also, during the 3 days before the full moon, during the full moon and 3 days after that, the predator fishes are more active because there is abundant light all around for them to see their prey.
I plan to go to Macritchie Reservoir next week to catch Snakeheads or what the old timers call Torman. Hopefully, I will have a good harvest on that day. Heh.
