Another incredible fish was recorded in Evia.

The professional fisherman contacted by evima.gr stated that the fish he caught on the morning of Thursday, January 25, in the Gulf of Aliveri, near the mouse beach.

She weighs 7.8 kg and is called Litsa.

Lichia Amia is a very strong and fast fish.

It hunts the smaller foam fish but prefers the Cefalos.

  • Length: Its length can reach up to 2 meters but on the Greek coasts they reach 1 meter.
  • Morphology: The body of the leeches is elongated, laterally compressed and ends in a long scissor tail.
  • It has a big mouth and small eyes.
  • Color: Its color is gray and on the back it has green shades.
  • Weight: Its weight reaches 20 kg, but in rare cases it can reach 50 kg.
  • Areas – Season: The best time to fish Litches is spring, early summer and the month of August.
  • During these periods it comes closer to the coasts, while in the winter months it opens into deeper waters to find more stable temperatures.

You can find Litsa mainly in the open sea, but sometimes she reaches very shallow waters to hunt for mullets.

Fishing methods: We can fish it with a rod from the shore.

With bait live mullet, shad and a small cork for a buoy.

We will get better results with trolling. We use natural or artificial bait although they will hardly rush to the artificial.

The bait should be a few meters below the surface of the sea with the help of a pencil.

Our speed should be 3-5 mph.

The fisherman’s name is Vangelis Charmandas.

He has caught such fish several times, especially in the summer. The biggest fish he has caught with his father was a 90 kg Tuna.
