TO SAVE A FISH IN THE RETINA
Pesca Pez Limon Mar del Plata
By: Alejandro Caldera
![]() |
He was the February 7 and was still trying to confirm the
whole group, we had booked six places but Mariano had a group of three that were
not finished deciding.
Furthermore Mariano me warm head, from the great fishing of lemons that had a
few weeks earlier in which 44 pieces were an outlet.
I ran through the veins only hoping to assemble an adrenaline output lemon sole,
knowing that they are not always successful, but well worth the trophy.
Finally the group of six armed and February 10 in the morning we were all in
Motonaútica, eager to go out and try your luck with yellowfin.
There we were waiting for Mariano, Nico, Roberto, Marcelo, Leo, in two ships,
the next to Malleo III Walhalla, both Skipper Spressa of 11 meters, ready to set
sail for adventure with all equipment on deck luciéndose.
The Malleo lll come with a group of 9 fishermen to bottom fishing for salmon,
Cherni, groupers and sea bream in Walhalla and we do exclusively for fishing for
lemon.
In the group were:
• Santiago
• His brother Martin
• Javier
• Roman
• Hernán
• Juan Pablo
• Fernando
• Y Yo
Six wanted to go but we did not know that lemon intentions were the two other
fishermen. Fortunately, John Paul (with whom I have been fishing several times)
gave his vote without thinking twice, and Fernando said: "This is my first trip
so we shipped anywhere."
Everything was already decided until Mariano said the inevitable phrase, are all
ready to do anything or nothing.
There, Martin puckered, began to say well, we're going to catch some sea bream
and just so we get the first taste of fish. I will tell if I go home empty-handed?
But luckily won the group and went all way to the bank for the Outside LEMON
FISH !!!!!!!!!!!!!

In my inner thought that going to do until 11 am? More than
ten years ago that I go fishing with Mariano and on all my previous trips I had
never seen strong activity of lemons before this time, though Mary has had very
good catches in the morning.
El Limon is a fish absolutely unpredictable, and everything we have studied the
subject in years when there is little point going to look, sometimes it is not
found, but others find it does not eat, sometimes taken with Jiggs, making other
Trolling Popper and others, is doing what it wants and we have them at its mercy.
Finally at 7:30 Hs claws, and had nearly an hour of navigating to get to the
fishing grounds. During the trip there were anecdotes of previous outings, along
with delicious croissants and coffee. Obviously not miss the extra burden of
adrenaline given by the captain, Mariano, relying on fishing for forty lemons
and the lemon a day before they had destroyed 10 kilos a Penn 850 reel.
We were sailing a few minutes by the Bank of Outside, looking for yellow fin
with all the equipment of vessels AQUAFISH, which have three browsers satellite,
high definition color echo sounder, autopilot and chart plotter, this equipment
makes it more easy search of fish to the captain which results in a higher
probability of success.
Finally the moment arrived, the captain shouts: WATER !!!!!!!!!!! All we drop
our Jiggs. I drop my Shimano Butterfly Long yellow and green, but although I had
great anxiety inside me asking that I fished Lemons at 8 in the morning?
The answer was not long in coming, were needed only two turns of the handle of
the reel Shimano Stradic to feel the brutal coup and to see my rod bend Shimano
Trevala, here was the first lime, now had to remove it after a few minutes of
the first fight we had lemon above the boat.

Mariano made us all to gather again to pass on the lemons,
the cry of WATER !!!!!!!!! again we drop the Jiggs, but the response was
another in a matter of seconds everyone started screaming, I got a lemon, a
lemon and got another, Marcelo and Leo were becoming mad pulling water with
lemons and the codend disengage the hooks from the same network.
In the past we took 5 lemons, adrenaline could be cut with a knife on the
boat, had unleashed a frenzy and everyone wanted more lemons.
For Martin, it had fulfilled the desire, while others took the lemons
pescábamos a sea bream, which was why all kinds of jokes in the well forever.
In the first two pieces of the past had drawn between 3 kg and 5 kg, had not
yet appeared monsters.
Mariano, aware that this could get complicated, and we all lose the view of
the fish had started to write last passed through many lemons had fish each.
We returned to pick up and position on the shoal, the image of the echo was
impressive, again came the cry WATER !!!!!!!!!!!! and automatically dropped
the jiggs appeared but this time the large, Santiago, who was using a Jigga
Williamson Benthos of blue and white, stuck an impressive Limón, while
trying to take it, almost everyone else caught their Limón, even I got
Santiago to get two and still struggling with this beast while its curved
rod Shimano Trevala dramatically, was more than fifteen minutes and finally
left out of the water a lemon over 8 Kgs
The first big day. Fernando was impressed by the brutality of the Peak and
the fight that gave out before they can out of the water, you could see the
happiness of having joined the adventure in his eyes.
At this time Marian was so excited how we, and the next took his last with
his cane Trevala Shimano Shimano reel Saragossa and dropped water along his
jigga to ours, obviously went to fish the bow of the boat so as not to
disturb . Now I had the luck to me, suddenly felt a jerk that I almost
started cane Trevala of hand, could not get the tip of the rod inside the
water and reel Stradic not stop turning while watching the exit of
mutifilamento 80 Lbs.

At that time the only thought is: endure junctions between
multifilament and fluorocarbon? The knot is good bait? Bear brake reel? Well in
the end for that are not facts, and if something I have to believe holds the
story.
While continuing to fight to hear Santiago, who already had a shouting out of
the water, while, while continuing with my dispute, I listen again to James who
had a second lemon out of the water, had already spent more than fifteen minutes
and still we could see the silhouette of the lemon, not only that, but still
pulling load reel as if it had just begun the fight.
Within me was anxious to finish, otherwise it would end with me and the day was
just beginning. His silhouette appeared suddenly under water, was great
!!!!!!!!! I play in stereo and listen again to James yelling that he come to
draw the third lemon water, was on the third and I still had not been able to
get this beast. Finally approached the boat and took him with Mariano Copo, was
great but unfortunately it had weighed more than 9 kg
Santiago, was with an incredible excitement, had lost the soles of shoes and had
not noticed, so I gave him a pair of rubber boots with his pants pampean Tambera
was a real fisherman.

Martin remained stubborn in their catch, now in addition
to pigs and sea bream "damselfish got more girls that I used jigga.
At this stage the prognosis was excellent were 10 in the morning and we had
dropped a quantity of lemons in the hold of the huge ship. At that moment I
told Marian, do not stop until 45 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From now on we began to have to look again at the lemons as they were
running for. As the saying goes OWNER IS ONE OF YOUR SILENCE and slave of
his words, so I had to upload again with shackles of iron and the ball for
opening your mouth when you had to keep it closed.
Mariano was a good while to find again the school in different parts of the
bank until they finally find him, it was like a heavenly bell again to hear
her cry and Mariano WATER !!!!!!!!!!!!!
In this last Martín Román and succeeded in capturing his first lemon for
Roman was not only the first of the lemon but the first days of his life, I
think we will never forget this as we are always asked what we had in mind
in future outputs.
11:00 How to listen to the voice of the captain asking if John Paul was on
the boat or if it had fallen into the water because he had not scored any
fish lemon, poor John Paul who was standing beside me a hint of a smile and
dropped her Jigga Shimano Butterfly long, white with green back, hoping to
reverse their fate, once again someone opened his mouth too soon, and this
time I did not, had a tremendous Juanpi Peak and then to fight with his cane
Trevala Shimano and Penn 850 reel up his first fish to the boat lemon.
In successive passes that followed it, made the difference Juanpi obviously
had found the pace of jigging and not make a stop behind another lemon, in
fact there were some in the past that was the only one caught.
Hence came the surprise hit Juanpi a cry LIMONZO sank and I saw the tip of
his cane in the water, had been a very sudden pique and pressure would not
stop, let her leave the reel multifilament if it had not put the brakes so
we all decided to raise our water Jiggs and enjoy this fight.
Juanpi was a good time trying to bring the lemon, but for every meter that
recorded the lemon took three in the race. Again and again the rod tip went
into the water with each kick of lemon, after several minutes of fighting
his silhouette appeared under water. If this was a real sea monster, the
biggest of all that had been released so far. Juanpi finished closer to the
boat and took him with Mariano codend, a real lemon, estimated that between
10 and 11 pounds since he was the only one that greatly exceeded the length
of the rafts.
11:30 For I was talking with the group for me and the fishing was done
because we had dropped a huge amount of lemons in the hold of the boat and
that was more than enough, but there came the final challenge ....
Mariano says "TODAY WE HAVE TO BREAK THE RECORDS REGISTERED 'which came to
the proverbial question:
What are the records?
There the captain recalled the saying and said: "That I will not say full,
but there is a record of lemons with Jiggs and one Lemons Trolling doing and
we can break them, do you do?
We look at all believe in and what time it was fortunate that we had and
answered:
VAMOS POR TODO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We did not know which was the limit but if we had fish and
fishing.
Towards mid-day was ruined in the fall and had to start looking for lemons
throughout the bank, also appeared anchovies mixed with lemons on each pass so
getting a mix of anchovies and lemons in its voracity by which predominated
anchovies.
To this point we had already lost count of the number of lemons that we had fish
and ignorábamos the more fish that had to beat the record the only one who knew
it was Mariano and never wanted to give us the amount.
What ever it was we were more aware of fatigue and what we had been accumulating
that cost us a lemon climb up the boat, sometimes we listen to James, after
having the chop, please ask that guy out. And we have no forces but were not
willing to resign.
Juanpi remained the star of lemons shortening the time and went away with the
most fish had, had become the incentive not to let it reach us, so that the
forces began to leave himself proudly.
Mariano, as he had been advised to Malleo lll, fishing we were doing so they
stopped fishing, which had gone very well and were due to our quest for
fishermen to live what was Pez Limón fishing.
Once we found told us that Mariano had broken all records FISHING HAD TO LEMONS,
LEMONS had captured 61 in an outing, so we began the journey back to the port of
Mar del Plata as the Malleo lll began to try luck with such a noble contender.
Finally Malleo lll in only one hour to capture 9 lemons between 6 and 10 kg, a
very good thing because its captain had managed to obtain his every fisherman.
On the return trip did not stop the stories of what happened on the day, in
which several of those who had gone fishing for the first time, Lemons, said
that this should be normal.
Here the captain spoke and said: "This is to be recorded in the retina, these
outlets are only one or two per year."
Mariano then we will continue the journey back with anecdotes from previous
trips that made us forget the journey time and the pain that we felt in our
ramshackle bodies.
At port, we bid farewell and we promised to try to repeat this adventure and
break the record of 61 lemons a day.
Leave the high beam ... ... ... .... But we have a great story to tell future
generations that will never believe.
Keep the sea, for those who succeed us may one day re-record this image on your
retina and in his heart.
