Fishing Portugal

[Newboy]

Anyone been to Portugal fishing?

Popping over for a week in Sep and plan to fish for a day or 2 or 3, not planning to do any big stuff like marlin or tuna, but inshore/reef fishing.

What can you catch over there? Anyone have any ideas what tackles/bait/technics? Any advice are welcome.

Seems Bass, mackerel, garfish & Mullet are common from the shore

Locals use very long rods and fixed spool reels with small hooks from the beaches. No surprise there then.....
