Enter the land of the Giant Snakehead

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thks mate,on 30lb boga it weighed 15lb.
 
Hey i'm in south korea and got a few northern snakeheads during the summer, But nothing since it started to get colder. Any advice for me on fishing for them in winter months? Lures locations? thanks
 
Im sorry mate I doubt I can give u any advice,as there is no winter or northern snakehead in SG.But why not give it a try ,if you're fishing at a spot where there are not much weeds around try using sinking swimbait to cover deeper areas,give it a slow retrieve and some pauses.I use this method to make them strike when its raining and when surface lures don't work for them.But still I have to say this method of mine is for aiming giant snakehead which lives in SG hahaha.....so im not sure will it works on northern but no harm trying right hahaha.....best of luck mate,wish you land something big over there.
 
Thanks either way, I fish a lot of soft plastics for bass over here as well. That and topwater frogs are what we caught the snakeheads on. Always in shallow water, less than 2 feet with lots of grass cover. Now that there isn't any grass cover I haven't been able to locate any.
Thanks anyways for the help and I'll give it a try this weekend.
Awesome thread by the way!
 
Finally i got my hands on this rod,it had been tested out not only in Japan for snakehead but also Amazon Arapaima,Malaysia Giant Snakehead and Papua New Guinea BlackBass.
Below are some photos of Smith LTD tester KOZO OKUBO with the powerful rod.

What reel is going on the Magnum Husky ? thats some serious pulling power.
 
Was thinking of a Shimano Conquest 300 :) but in the mean time before I got that,i will pair it out with Daiwa Z2020.
