So, my family just booked a trip to Taiwan for March of next year. If you've never been, airfare is really cheap now and Taipei is a world class city. When we were there last, I found time to seek out a couple of tackle shops to bring back some unique gear, but this time around, I'm hoping to actually wet a line, even if it is just for Tilapia or some other similar species, and c&r is fine since I know some of the most available waters are too polluted to eat your catch. Anyone have any ideas/advice for fishing in/around Taipei? We are probably also visiting Tainan, but I don't know if I'll have time for fishing there.
I found a couple old threads on here, so I know a few members have fished there in the past, I'm just looking for something a bit more recent and specific. Also, does anyone know if there are any opportunities to fish for the Formosan Trout (landlocked cherry salmon)? I know they are considered endangered, but I don't know if they are farmed or raised in hatcheries to provide any angling opportunities.
As far as I can tell with English language google, there don't seem to be any ocean charter opportunities, but if you know otherwise please let me know.
