Fished a few rocky outcrops using 6 lb line, a waggler float set up and size 10 hooks and prawn as bait.
Bites aplenty everywhere i fished,,hard to hook up though, smaller hook size might have helped.
Tried ground fishing using kamazan 2's and 50lb braid, and a whole shrimp as bait,,lost a nice bream coming up the rocks and also lost an Octopuss about 2 or 3 lb,,,no bother to the rod,
Fished a little harbour in Playa San Juan,,,the only harbour in Tenerife where you are ALLOWED to fish,,caught a couple of puffers and drove myself mad looking at the Baracudas swirling in the water infront of me. of course i brought no wire traces with me and tried using 20 lb flourocarbon and large shrimps,,,,got one bite,,,and thats what it was,,,biten off half way up the snood...spoke to a german guy on the pier he told me the locals fish for ray and shark at night from the harbour,,all monster fish, 30-150 lb,,so my next trip to Tenerife I'll, be staying in Playa san Juan, beautiful little fishing village.
The local cop walked down the pier a few times and stood behind me,,,they take your rod and fine ya 300 euro on the spot over there if ya have no licence. As I left the pier he gave me a jovial nod which sUGGESTED to me,,tourist anglers are welcome there. Ohh bring plenty of elastic thread, I ran out after three days and barely connected with a bite after that.
Weather was massive, calm seas for most of the week, got a few mini species, but will be returning to go after the bigger lads next visit.
FISH CAUGHT, lizard fish, Parrot Wrasse, Puffer fish (male and female) and damselfish i think is the black on with the blue spot.
