How To Catch Armored gurnard Fish

To catch an armored gurnard fish (Polyprion americanus), also known as grouper, you can follow some specific tips for fishing this type of fish:







Location: The armored blunderbuss is generally found in deep waters, from 100 to 1,000 meters, in rocky regions and reefs. They are common on the Atlantic coast, including Brazil, and prefer areas where they can hide.

Equipment: Due to the depth at which they live, robust equipment is necessary. Use a heavy fishing rod and a reel with high-strength line (monofilament or multifilament), capable of supporting the weight and resistance of the fish.

Baits: Natural baits are the most effective for catching armored blunderbuss. Use small fish, squid, or pieces of other fish. The smell and movement of the bait are important in attracting blunderbuss.

Fishing technique:

1.Bottom fishing: The most common method is bottom fishing. Drop the line down to the sea floor, then lift it a little so the bait is close to the bottom where the blunderbuss usually swims.

2.Vertical Fishing: This technique involves dropping the line to the desired depth and then making vertical up and down movements with the bait.

3.Timings: Although they can be caught at any time of day, armored blunderbuss tends to be most active at dawn and dusk.

4.Safety: As this is deep sea fishing, make sure you are using all the necessary safety equipment, such as life jackets, and that you are accompanied by experienced or professional people.

By following these tips, you increase your chances of success in capturing the armored blunderbuss. Good luck and good fishing!
