Fishing guide

The Sickle Pomfret (Taractichthys steindachneri) is a medium-sized fish that lives in deep waters, usually between 164 and 2296 ft (50 and 700 m), often near underwater mountains or along continental shelf slopes. This fish is a group-hunting omnivore, feeding on small fish, squid, crustaceans, and tunicates. It’s also a favorite meal for Bigeye Tuna, Swordfish, and Sharks. Since it lives in dark, deep waters, the Sickle Pomfret isn’t tied to specific feeding times and bites both day and night.

If you prefer to use natural baits, then the best way to catch Sickle Pomfret would be to use Natal Rock Oyster Meat on a size #3/0 hook.

If you are more into artificial lures, you should go for some Pilkers.

The most successful lure is Silver/Gold Trophy Double Hook Pilker 150 g, #7/0.
