CATFISH PELLET FISHING IN THE EBRO RIVER

 Like every year when the Ebro catfish finish their annual reproduction appointment, they seek to recover from spawning, heal the injuries produced and accumulate lost reserves again, these are the best days for pellet catfish fishing.

The end of May and June mark the beginning of this fishing system that lasts throughout the summer, a type of fishing that is really effective for fishing these giants, sometimes having almost consecutive bites.

Pellets are a type of feed made from mainly fish meal, very rich in fat and protein and that catfish quickly associate with food. It really is fish fattening feed adapted to fishing, a food that is easy to get and with a minimum effort and that in the Ebro the catfish have been used to eating for years, there being days of scandal in terms of fish activity.

*Catfish fishing with pellets is most effective in the hottest months of summer, from May to the end of October.


In these hot months the catfish look for the deepest areas of the river where the water temperature is a few degrees lower, that is where we must look for them with these baits.

It is a type of fishing that if done well and fished judiciously is very effective, and there may be times of having several practically consecutive bites.

*Catfish fishing with pellets or catfishing is quite similar to carpfishing, so it is possible to combine the capture of both species (carp and catfish) at the same time and in the same place, just by varying a series of parameters, equipment , montages, etc.
