In the following points, we will be talking about what are the points that you should be taking into consideration while you go on a game fishing trip.

Focus on the target

Aboriginal fishing mainly compromises of fishing for survival so the Aboriginal fisherman does not go for all the fishes that come to them. There are only specific fishes with specific features that the Aboriginals hunt for. You can also implement this trait while you go Game Fishing. You need to focus on the fish that you really want, keeping a sharp eye on the fish will help it to get caught easily.

Shoot within your range

This is what the Aboriginals believe, they never cross the limits of their skills. The point is that if your limit is pulling out a 10 kg GT better go for 10Kg GT, just for the show-off don’t go on hunting for the 20kg which you cannot handle. The speak of enjoyment is the highest when you have it within your best limits.

Perfect your Technique

The Aborigines have their primitive weapons for hunting which include spears and arrows, however, one of the things that they have mastered unaltered over the years is the practice.

Know your competitors

Since the food store is the same for everyone, the tribes have to keep on competing for the forage with the other tribes, now why have Nicobarese outshone the other tribes? This is because they have a clear idea of what to shoot for and where to shoot for. Similarly, if you know the locomotion patterns of your target fish then catching the same becomes easy as you can plan for the same.

Follow the nature

As told in many of our previous articles you need to follow nature while you go on game fishing, the reason being fishes are not available all round year, there is a specific time when the fishes grow and become mature enough to be caught. Now the question which might come up is on what the tribals subsist on when it’s not the fishing boom. The answer is mainly on the basic cultivation of fruits, cereals, and barley which they have been doing for 1000s of years. At Game Fishing in Andaman, we also follow the rules of nature and let the fishes bloom to their fullest.
