The uncontaminated nature of the Tuscan Maremma, the clear beach of Cala Violina in Scarlino and the company is that of Matteo Sparapani of the Tubertini Team who takes us for an exciting winter surfcasting fishing session.
The formed sea leaves hope well and Matteo immediately begins to examine the beach and the conditions to understand where and how to place the fishing equipment.
His companion takes his place in the central position of the beach, facing the open sea, while Matteo, after placing a first rod in the same position, follows his instinct and his technical awareness that lead him to approach the cliff, where the presence of bream and sea bream should be greater in rough seas.
Tubertini Espiazione 200 g, bibi hook, a nice technical launch and immediately a beautiful bream is pulled to the shore, disgorged carefully and then released into the water.
The technical gestures follow each other, the Koreans are skillfully triggered thanks to the support of long needles specially designed for this fishing technique, the tips of the Espiazione and the Oniria 160 g move and flex to the innumerable touches of bream and sea bream repeating.
Matteo shows how he decided to prepare the setting of his lines specially designed for the fishing session with particularly rough sea: the main objective was to create a frame that would avoid as much entanglement as possible.
A stopper, a bead, a swivel, a bead and a stopper directly on the main line equipped with two endings placed at different heights, which will allow Matteo to understand where the prey are, whether they are more in the water or more near the lead.
The profitable situation is disturbed by the increase of seaweed that dirty the water and greatly complicate the fishing action forcing Matteo and Andrea to withdraw the lines and leave the beach.
The scenery changes, the shots are moved in the woods of the Bandite di Scarlino Nature Reserve where Matteo presents Tubertini products used in the fishing session, explains some of his technical choices and gives important advice on the choice of rigs for fishing with rough seas and transport and bait conservation during the fishing session.
Not only a beautiful surfcasting session in the Tyrrhenian Sea waters, but also a real message to defend the beaches and the environment in general, which as Matthew emphasizes is the most important resource at our disposal of which we must be defenders and preserve the well-being with small but significant gestures.
