Threadfin Salmon (Practice Catch and Release)
 


Fly Fishing For Threadfin Salmon

Threadfin salmon are a popular inshore saltwater species throughout the Indo-Pacific. They are not related to northern hemisphere salmon and are recognized by the unique group of barbels that hang from their lower jaw. They often prefer the calm turbid waters of mud and sand flats and will feed in the transition zone between clear and turbid bands of water. Once hooked, threadfin salmon provide a fierce erratic fight, strong runs, lethargic spells, jumps that clear the surface, more strong runs, etc. Their rough mouth requires the use of shock tippet. Threadfin salmon average 3-15 lbs. and much bigger fish are a possibility.
