There are lots of dams in Cyprus, but they are difficul to find. The world match fishing record was set there and only recently broken. Most of the dams are in the south. Polis is in the extreme...

Just thought on. There's a guy out in the Polis area who runs accompanied trips. I've spoke to him (Alan) a couple of times. He seems OK and he knows the dams well enough....

Mr Nicepix can i just say you have severely wetted my appetite! What sort of Strength line do you use for the bass and blue fish? I presume a short wire trace is beneficial, say 6ins long? Cheers very...

Graham, The bass and blues run to about 6 or 7lb, but half that size is more common. Your line strength will obviously depend on the rod you intend to use. A short wire trace is advisable for the...

Sounds like a real spectacle! What's the rough size of the whitebait, and would you suggest a surface or sub surface lures? Many thanks, Graham,

Graham, The small stuff are around 2". I use a 5m whip with paste bait to catch them. You can buy a pot of paste at Harris Sports. Take a few ledger stops or spirals to get it to stick to the hook....

It already sounds like i'm going to have to go back again, and i'm not even there yet! I'll have the other half with me so i'm not sure i'll get to fish as much as i'd like(do we ever?) but we are...

Well although it was not a fishing holiday(this time) i managed a couple of hours of swishing the fly rod around, and actually caught as well! I tried the local harbour and soon found small bait fish...

Good to hear that you enjoyed yourself Graham. And a couple of nice fish too. We are always a little anxious when friends or family go out to the apartment as it is not a typical holiday resort. We...

I went carp fishing in Cyprus about 10 years ago, managed to get hold of some maps/directions for ALL of the dams/reservoirs. I will have a look to see if I still have them, so if anyone wants them,...
