Okay, it's been a long time since I've landed a chermin, just when despair starts to sink in, the wind finally changes. Last trip reaps not one, but two chermins.
I caught the small one first on live prawns and this little fellow is pretty sneaky. It took the line swam towards me, luckily I had my eye on my rod when it twitched slightly. The line went slack against the current so I knew something fishy must be going on. Sure enough, as I retrieve to tighten the line there was a fish on the line.
I carried on fishing since the chermin could fit into my small little icebox. So I waited on for an hour or so, just as the tide is about to peak, my rod gave a good bend and send me jumping off my chair. This chermin didn't give me much trouble and landing it was fairly easy.

Speaking of which ... I have never landed a chermin on shore !
After trying all amazing methods from fluro carbon lines to thin leaders, to blue coloured leader ...
from apollo rigs to "chermins" rig, use small small live prawns as some told me chermin mouth 小小 ....
And I still have to go out to sea to get my chermins.
