How to Do Snakehead Fish Fishing
We use top water lures to attract the Snakehead Fish. We cast the lure as far as we can
to the suspicious spot and make the lure moving on the water surface to make it like a real frog jumping or like a lizard jumping. If the fish is already there, they will aggressively strike right away. The attractive sounds of lure dropping and moving is what call the Snakehead Fish to come in faster and strike. If the fish are near by, they would move in after a few casting. But if they are quite far away, We need to keep casting consistently to the exact same spot for ten to thirty or fifty times to lure the fish to move in by the sounds.
The best part of this fishing is when the Snakehead Fish aggressively strike the lure exploding the water. The Snakehead is very strong and it fights very hard. The expected size to fish is between 1kg and 4kg. Sometimes a bigger one over 5kg up to 8kg or 10kg also like your lure and it can break your rod or it can pull you into the water.
