Fishing From The Shore In Greece, Something Different...
On a recent holiday to Kos, in Greece we decided to do a little fishing and filming, for anything we could catch... It would have been rude not too... right...?
Here's something a little different from the norm, so hope you enjoy it! Apologies for the sound, was difficult with the wind and the waves!

*I love it **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I’m using it for my 1.0 Crankbaits and small Jerkbait. Paired with my Assassin. Works great, feels great. Would definitely recommend this setup.*
Hey ,nice vid man. Some infos for the fish since you asked , their names in Greek language are
1st one is called Manali,size you cauge is the average.
2nd one is called Refuge cause is a foreing fish in our waters and came from suez canal, size you caught is the average,poisonous on the top and bottom fins (very lucky you didnt got stinged) gives quite strong pain but it goes away after 20-30 mins.
3rd one is called Salpa,size you caught is the top size that can grow , maybe 4-5 cm more
Cheers
Great video Steve! I love ultra lite catch and release fishing for small fish, lots of fun. Always a bit easier to release though if you pinch your barbs! I fish the beaches of Maui, Hawaii with ultra lite tackle and its a blast! Be well and fish on! Nothing like fishing in your bathing suit! Mark in Oregon
Good video! A bit of fun fishing on holiday, better than sitting round the pool all day!
Haha, indeed +Gary Shears always good to slip a bit of fishing tackle in the suitcase. ;-)
Great fishing! Gonna get fishing at Thasos this summer;)
Great vid mate, I fished magaluf last year using the same method and had the same issue with clever fish taking the bread off the hook. I went back to the hotel and got some mussels, they worked a treat and I ended up with some nice sea bream (only small) great fun in the sun
pure beauty . Excellent video quality !
Thanks mate!
Hi mate, we are using a Shimano Exage travel rod, they make may various travel rods in take apart and telescopic, this particular model is a take apart model! They are pretty good quality.
Greetings from GREECE
Greetings! Nice to hear from you all the way over in Greece! :-)
Great stuff Ian! Glad you caught a few, ah perhaps we should have tried different baits, will bare it in mind if we get another chance soon! :-) Fun fishing in the sun, you can't beat it!
My son and I are going to KOS again this year August 2018. Exactly the same place you are in this video, Kefalos. Taking a tele-travel rod and small box of tackle like yourself, however I have decide to go a little further up to your right to the harbour. Really looking forward to it. I can't wait to see my lads face when he experiences his first catch
Good luck Steve, hope you manage to catch a few fish! :-)
Thankyou ;)
that kind of fishing is better two to three hours before sunset or just after sunrise , use smaller hook ( the straight ones) and you have to read the beach to choose the right place ... there are some videos on youtube how to choose the right spot when fishing on the sandy beach ... for the bait it's ok , you can use the dough as well (ad some freshwater to the bread to make a dough) but you have to mix bread and some dirt or sand plus fresh or canned sardines to attract fish before starting fishing.( half a hour before) to attract the bigger ones..
great vid, nice to see something different.
You still managed to take your fishing hat on holiday mate! love it! haha
Thanks, for the comment! :-) And glad you liked the video! Yeah I think all anglers have a lucky something!!!! Sonu baits sponsor the team I fish for, so we tend to use there bait etc!
Jep, that's right ;) Well... for bait fishing(from shore, never used a boat) I mainly used size 1 to 0/2 hooks, just 50cm leader(~20'). On a regular bottom fishing rig, just a big weight, a pearl over the swirrel. Nothing special but sometimes I let the bait float a little over the ground!
Hope I helped :)
Haha, excellent stuff Dan, glad you may find the video useful! Thanks for taking the time to drop us a comment :-) Good luck on your trip to Spain!
We are on our last day of our hols in Paros and Antiparos. And I've learnt quite a lot in the 2 weeks me and my son have been fishing here. Namely the ten hooks on one line the locals used. Perhaps a bit barbaric as the barbed hooks get stuck everywhere in the fish but the locals are eating the fish not putting them back as we were. So we had a go. You can get these ten hook rigs in most fishing shops. One shop in Naousa and another in Parikia. I crushed all the barbs so I wasn't ripping the fish to pieces and it worked. We were pulling them safely and removing the hooks with ease and putting the fish back. All good fun. We also had a bit of success with one hook but need to be very patient. The fish just seemed to know. Bread is the best. Every bit I threw in they were on... But not my hook....very frustrating somedays. Nothing else worked, though we were told by a local if we go deeper they love shrimp and calamari but we never got the chance. Anyway I hope this helps a few of you. Have fun.
Nice one Steven!
The spikey ones the locals call German fish.
I caught last year 54 and a small grouper.
Wow! I guess we were lucky... :-/ Thanks for the information! We will have to remember for next time!
Well then :D I saw them often even directly in the entry of bigger harbors! But I leke isolated areas more so I'll take a look if I can find something, thanks :)
Αt the 8 minute mark you have caught what we call " Gemarn fish" they are pretty venomous.
Thanks mate, I don't think Steve was sure what some of them were!
We need more programs like this ,that are aimed at the holiday angler, the trouble now is that every fishing show on telly seems to show the presenter heading out to sea on a boat that costs more for a days fishing than we've paid for our holiday and there things that we've seen over,and over again on telly but don't actually teach us anything .To show what I mean ,take Spain for example ,did you know that you do need a licence for sea fishing even on the cliffs way out of the towns and a licence for the Canaries is not valid for the main land or if you want a licence for some parts of Spain you need to take out insurance as well as well,as wait for it be required to take a hunting exam ( no I'm not joking please take two minutes to check it out ) or the fines can be truly horrific, or the stupid amounts of money holiday companies now charge just for a small rod tube .So please if there are any telly people who see this can we please have more programmes likes this that actually teach the holiday angler on a budget ,with just what is in his suitcase some actual fishing advice.
Yeah, they certainly don't look cheap like most of the travel ones I've been looking at...thanks for answering.
Just returned from 2 weeks in Kos fishing with light telescopic rod and small and light gear ETC caught all the same species as yourself minus the mullet used bread paste first few times then ventured into Kos town and found A very helpful chap that ran A tackle shop just off the main seafront in Kos harbour were we bought some small ragworm and maggots as he suggested felt weird fishing with maggots in the sea but caught A few small fish the best bait by far was the ragworm though.!
The second fish you caught I had the pleasure of being stung by the top spines and yeah I can confirm that it does hurt a lot and after speaking to a diver they day previous and him saying that there are some toxic fish there I was quite worried but the pain subsided after a few hours thank god.
I would recommend fishing on the bottom with a double paternoster rig nothing special did find that the fish did sometimes bite through my 7lb line though so maybe up the size line next time.
Hi Nick Myles thanks for the message! Glad you managed a few fish, sorry to hear about your little incident, some of the things swimming around our there don't look too friendly! If I return one day I'll have to keep you tactics and bait in mind, as it would definetely open up a few more options and hopefully equal a few more fish! :-)
From The Waters Edge TV Bread is the ultimate bait on any greek island. I out a small ball of bread on my hook, cast out about 2 meters and had a fish in within half a minute! I couldnt stop catching them!
Sounds good :) I'm in summer on Lesvos for a week and will try to catch some if the toothie guys! Bluefish on target, never caught one :)
6:41
We call that fish "milla" in Tunisia , I remember I caught 4 of them with my brother in the beach of "Borj Cedria"
Thanks for the information mate, much appreciated. 😊
@@FromTheWatersEdgeTV You are welcome!
Thanks for the comment TehFluxer! We weren't too sure if people would like it as its so different from everything else, but we thought we would upload it anyway! Something different and some fishy entertainment all the same :-)
No, the water was lovely and warm! Alot warmer than the old north sea!! haha! :-)
Oh no probs :) I have to say: For this type of fishing I use 50-80Lbs Hardmono! At night even wire because of the many barraccuda witch often bite. It's not a fishery where you can use light leader and lines :)
Thanks buddy! Thats really helpful As I said we general had no clue, other than for the Mullet! Thanks again, I know a few people have asked too! :-) Tight Lines.
We all have one don't worry! Nice vid, keep em coming dude. I can see you're sponsored by Sonubaits now too, unless I missed it in your older vids? If that's recent, congrats pal!
What rod are you using? I'm looking for a travel rod for when I go to Greece later this year.
Hello from beautiful greece
Hi mate! :-)
Thanks for the information! I didnt have a clue what it was!!! Haha! :-)
Hi can you tell us what is the name of second fish you caught
I'm not too sure Nathan, I've never been! I would suggest looking on google as i'm sure there's lots of information on there about fishing etc Cheers
hello, the first fish we call them in Egypt patata fish or sweet potato fish in English ,it's a red sea migrant that moved to the mideterenean sea when the suez canal was dug in 1798 , you catch them on dough, and you must watch for the float tiny drops in order to catch it, because this is how it feeds, it lives within the rocks and is a day fish only, the second one i think of the same kind, those fish have pretty colors and they vary in colors between the first and the second colorings
After many years I saw this video and I saw you visited us in Kos like tf 😂😂
Haha! :-D
Try some 4mm expander pellets on a size 16 barbless. Great fun which is what it's all about
Nice one Dave, that sounds like a shout - am sure that'd work for them!
Hey, the second fish i think is Dusky spinefoot (Siganus luridus) .This specie of fish first appeared in Greece during the German occupation (at the '40s) so in greek is knows as ''German fish''. It's lessepsian immigrant that came to Meditteranean travelling due Suez
.
Right answer^ Dont get stung by them ;)

Hi Hissein,unfortunately I don't know! I'm not sure what it is!!! Haha! We did ask people to comment if they knew! All I know is that the last fish is a mullet! :-)
No problem ;) I'm in greece every two years because my gramps, he's greek. And obviously I'm an angler too so I know somethig about them :)
The thing is that there where much fishery in the aegeis sea arounf greece. So the fish population is in some places drastically smallert and the fishes are not easy to catch. But if you want to catch smaller tuna, barraccuda, bonitos and simillar species the best way is to use jigs witch you cast far out and jig them very fast back. Good too are little baitfish or occtopus fot bait. Heavy gear and bottom rigs. Good for Dentex!
im going to bulgaria soon do you know if fishing is any good there?
Bread doesn't work like that at 04:00. First we make the crumble dough, add some feta cheese with a little water, not too loose and then we make small balls and put them on the hook tip!
i think it's a Rabbitfish. In indonesia we call it Baronang, the meat taste really good. but be careful with the spines, it has poison, get stung and you will had a nasty pain for a day. :)
Haha! Of course its my lucky fishing hat, i'd be useless without it!!! Haha! ;-))
greetings from greece!!! 1st fish name is melanouri,2nd is petropsaro,3rd is salpa and 4th is kefalos!! all of these eating fried except last wich is more delicious in soup with potatoes,carrot,celery etc!!

Steve I live in Los just saw this vid it's better at night in the harbour fishing between the boats with a pole about 1 inch above the bottom with a sardine paste you regularly get big mullet up to 1\2 kilo just thought I would pass it on
Thanks mate! 😊
Hi Ben, we are using Bread.
awsome
Thanks mate :-)
What bait i should use to get that last fish? They dont eat worms ( i tried) they ignored the worm
I’m not too sure to be honest! I’d have a little look on Google and see. We’re no experts at this type of fishing! 😬🎣
You are The Best Fischer
Grecce beautiful
Thanks Riad! :-)
You are welcome
I am from Germanie
I know these kind of fish very well, but i don,t go fishing for them, i choose better kind of fish. Where i come from the first one is called "trikhoun" its some kind of mackerel i think, u can catch it with dough, better with worms in big sizes, but the best i have tried is with chicken parts. The second one we call it "mwasta" its a species of what u pple call black porgy, n thank god it didn't hit u with it's upper fin coz it would have caused u lot of pain, u can easily catch this kind using dough or sea weed. Third one may get way bigger n has more meat on it, usually caught using worms. The last one lives in sea, n u can find it in rivers too, sometimes u can find it where boats gather because it likes the smell of oil, it gets really big, u can catch one using a lure, or cooked smelly dough.
Ok, so these are all the fish names because there have been many misconceptions
1. Derbio (some type of jack)
2. Marbled rabbitfish (eatable but with poisonous spikes)
3. Salema porgy
4. Some type of mullet
Im greek myself, so i know the species' names, cheers
Cheers mate!
Its called the dusky rabbitfish. The marbled one looks different.
@plato thanks for sharing your knowledge! I’ve been searching for the first one since days now. Finally know what it is :)
The third one looks like a kantenteen
Which is plentiful here in South Africa
Will be in Santorini n June 2017
Will be keen to cast a line out
Any luck on fly?
Collin
Thanks Collin.
I'm off to Corfu this summer, and I'm wondering if there are there any laws that you would need to know about when fishing in Greece. Do you need a licence to fish from the shore, and are there any restrictions on where you can fish? Many thanks.
I'm not sure +William Chamberlain Steve only fished for a little bit on holiday one year. Best bet would be to type it in on google or ask for some advice on the forums? World Of Sea Fishing has a European section I believe. :-) Hope that helps.
+From The Waters Edge TV thanks very much, I will try that.
Hello there, if you plan on rod and reel fishing off the coast you dont need a licence and very rarely are there any restrictions regarding where you can fish (i have only come across a small area restricted in a harbor once). Any harbor, beach or bit of rocky coast is a potential fishing spot. (I have been living in Greece most of my life, so this is irst hand info).
Great, thanks for your help.
The third is a saupa saupa. It's hallucinogenic if eaten because it feeds on algae all day.
Ah I didn't realise! Thank you for the feedback :-)
haha you are very wrong pal. its a Sarpa and they are not hallucinogenic. ive eaten a good 13 in one sitting and i felt fine for the rest of the day.
WHERE DID U GET THAT INFORMATION.???????? REDICULOUS. THEY JUST DONT TASTE GREAT
Sarpa salpa is the generic and specific name of this fish that is also called salema porgy. They can be hallucinogenic if they have eaten a certain alga. The hallucinogen is thought to be concentrated in the head but the flesh may also contain the chemical. Some have postulated that the Romans, deliberately ate the fish for the effects but modern accounts describe the experience of ingesting affected fish as frightening. The level of toxicity may change according to season and I know many Greek people eat these fish to no avail. They are readily available in fish markets there.
I come from Greece,
We call the first fish Litsa
the second German(because they first appeard when Germans came to Greece)
the third one is called Sarpa
The last one , we call it Kefalos
Thanks mate. :-)

It is actually much easier to fish off a peer I caught around nearly 30 -40 Fish a day with a pole .
Thanks Tom Denham we only had a bit of fun and fishing wasn't the main priority really, but thought we better sample it! Haha! ;-)
Forget about using bread as hook bait. I have fished in the Greek Islands on holiday for years. Find some structure, harbour, rocks, jetty, anything like that and use sweetcorn or pieces of shrimp, sweetcorn size. So long as there is at least 3 feet of water, there will be plenty of fish. I use a 10 foot collapsible rod with a fixed spool reel loaded with 4 pound line and wide gape barbless 10s to 14s with a 3 pound hooklength, with a 2 to 3 bb waggler, feathers are jut as good as floats.My son in law and I generally get abput 20 in a couple of hours.Be very careful of the fish called "Germans" all their spines (all over their body) are toxic. A sting will be painful for 30 minutes but should wear off. These fish are apparently delicious when cooked but I have not tried them.
Nice one Geordie! We'll have to keep that in mind next time we're away.
No germanos stunged me 2 times and it hurts for 2 minutes only
Not a grouper but a rock bream! There slime is slightly poisoning and hurts like a bee sting. Preddy awfull.. But there are also grouper but they don't like bread :)
Guys what did you expect to catch he's fishing in a beach. Greece has a rocky terrain. If you want large fish you have to dive or fish above rocks, or fish in open sea.
Hi Efstathios Zavvos we didn't expect anything to be honest, we weren't on a fishing holiday, but just decided to have a bit of fun and fish while we were there. We realise open tourist beaches aren't the best, but we still had fun! :-)
From The Waters Edge TV Yeah I know mate. It's great you went there and had your fun. My comment wasn't intended to you , but to those who say "meh fishing in greece sucks, fish are bigger where I fish". Greece is a good country to go fishing to if you have a local to tell you the good spots, or a friend with a boat. It's also a great place to do dive-fishing (which is usually how greeks fish large fish in shallow waters) or boat fishing. There is a variety of fish, from small to quite large.
+Efstathios Zavvos ''Greece is a good country to go fishing to if you have a local to tell you the good spots''
Everywhere is a good place for fishing if you know where to fish. The point is that in good fishing places you don't need to.
No, I disagree. There are not many places in the world in which you can exercise any type of fishing within 20-30 miles of your reference point, let alone places easily accessible to Europeans.
fishing with bred in Greece Parga it's a good decision ?
I'm not too sure, I'm not familiar with the fishing there - Steve was just there on holiday. :-)

Hi I'm going to zante in August , anyone got any knowledge of fishing around there from the beach and from a boat were prob going to hire , would love any tips
We haven't I'm afraid, this video was a complete guess... Haha! Just took a few terminal tackle items and put something together! Perhaps others might be able to help?
+From The Waters Edge TV oh okey thank you for letting me know , just woundering never been fishing abroad really just being inquisitive about the rules
Be carefull, the second one is called "Germanos" by the local people and the sting is toxic and also if he bites you it will be painfull
Thanks mate, we didnt know that!
Коллеги-рыбаки, берите с собой опарыша ... это наилучшая замена хлебу.
Hi the second fish name SAFI in MIDDLE EAST.
Go in the kefalonia
This looks really boring, if this was me, I would have gone home within an hour. I'm used to catching bigger fish, in the 1-30 lb range. I barely ever catch anything, but when I do, it's usually a fairly big. I live in florida, so I catch things like redfish, ladyfish and speckled trout. But the most common thing to catch, would probably be stingrays, which are boring to catch when they're small, but bigger ones run, and take line. I use pinfish, and elwy for bait which I catch using a 5 ft cast net. I miss fishing for carp in england, it so easy, you can catch a fish every 5 minutes on a good day. Over here you'll catch a fish once a week on a good month.
Nice one Joshua Couling to me 99.9% of fishing is fun, it's not always about catching big fish, although that is normally the aim. This was just a short session whilst on holiday, nothing serious.
where's this place in greece
Kos is an island search it in Google map
I'm not too sure mate, I'll ask Steve for you. :-)

2nd is a Marbled Spinefoot (Siganus Rivulatus)
3rd is a Salpa (Boops Salpa)
4th as you recognized is the common mullet (Mugil Cephalus).

move the camera for the action, stupido, always on that guy. pointless. "what a great day", haha
Thanks for the feedback mate.
just joking, i guess you were alone.... next time try line and hooks only as system on your rod (no lead at all, it's important too), with piece of squid and mixture of flour and dehydrated cheese (for example, italian product is called "Milo"), mix it with flour and water and try the combo. Adriatic/Aegeian/Mediterranean Sea is clear and fish can see the line (lead as well), so, try with 0,18 - 0,20 - 0,22 max max!! sorry for tarzan english mate, but this will do the trick for the fish you caught there, trust me. I was born on Adriatic coast, it's the same fish and same approach for fishing, more or less. :)
Wow just seeing this out of the box ruclips.net/user/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
