유료 바다낚시터“My dad’s hobby is fishing, so he rarely plays with us on the weekends.”
As one child complained, ‘fishing’ is often the exclusive domain of fathers. It seems dangerous to take children fishing on the seashore rocks, and taking them to an indoor freshwater fishing spot means there is nothing to do and no place to sit and rest properly. However, the situation is different in Daebudo and Yeongheungdo.
The Sihwa seawall road from Ansan to Daebudo is a good driving course in itself with a refreshing sea view. This is a unique driving course that connects islands, with six islands, including ‘Tando’, which is said to have black stones, ‘Buldo’, which is said to be where Buddha appeared, and ‘Seongamdo’, which is said to have had immortals, standing shoulder to shoulder like brothers in the West Sea. You can enjoy beautiful scenery, including ‘Yukdo’, which is called ‘Yukdo’ because it is said to be floating. Also, along the drive you can see the unique lifestyle of ‘Pungdo’, who migrate to nearby Dorido to collect oysters and clams in the winter and return before the Lunar New Year the following year. Another attraction that cannot be overlooked is that it can be reached in less than 2 hours from the metropolitan area.
On Daebudo Island, you can catch clams, sea bass, conch, conch, etc. in the mudflats, and you can also catch goby, flounder, rockfish, and wrasse by fishing. Paid sea fishing sites that began opening last year near Daebu Island, Yeongheung Island, and Seonjae Island combine the advantages of sea fishing and freshwater fishing. It combines the advantages of a freshwater fishing spot where you can catch sea fish on land, but is also safe for the whole family.
Although the meat is raised in fish farms, its taste is no different from natural meat. In particular, fish species that use their strength, such as yellowtail or yellowtail, tend to burst their gear and run away. One thing to keep in mind at paid sea fishing spots is that you must remove the fish quickly to avoid causing harm to others. Since there is less space than the sea, you have to endure this level of inconvenience.
The fishing spots here take full advantage of the island’s characteristics, making the most of the seaside scenery while considering safety and the convenience of families. As it is a sea fishing site, most freshwater paid reservoirs are so large that they cannot even show off their business cards.
What this means is that there is enough space for the father to fish and for the mother and children to set up a tent and run around as they please. Most sea fishing spots allow you to set up tents or parasols, so you can even buy a watermelon and go on a picnic.
In the waters of the paid sea fishing site, there are islands, valleys, and even artificial reefs. In addition, using only purified, clean seawater, an ecological space has been created so that fish can function in optimal conditions. If you don’t have a fishing rod ready, you can rent one on site. It varies depending on the fishing spot, but most are free or can be rented for between 5,000 and 10,000 won. Simple bait can also be obtained on site.
If you are equipped with fishing gear, you need to set up a tent first. It is a flaw that trees produce little shade. To quote a paid fishing spot expert, even if there is no shade from trees, you can create cool shade by using your own car. However, unless you are in a jeep, you will likely have no choice but to use an umbrella and sunblock. Also, depending on the fishing spot, some places have bungalows, so check carefully before using them.
It is best to bring food prepared in an icebox. Refreshing fruits such as watermelon are also good, but the best food at a fishing spot is by far the freshly caught saltwater fish, sliced and sashimi on the spot. Mothers and children only need to prepare fresh lettuce and vinegar and wait. As it is sea fishing, there are many different types of fish caught. There are also fish species that can be found in the South Sea, such as red sea bream, rockfish, and flatfish. If you bring a lot of family together, you can have a party with sea sashimi all day long. Don’t worry if you can’t cook raw fish or prepare vegetables and seasoning. For a small fee, you can get sashimi, vegetables, and seasoning at a restaurant located at a fishing spot.
Since there are no special play facilities, there is nothing special for children to play, but if you wait for low tide, you can catch clams and small crabs in the mudflats around the fishing spot. You can truly experience the mudflat experience. However, in mud flats, an adult must accompany you as you may cut your feet on sharp shells or lose your feet on pearls.
Entry fees to paid fishing spots vary depending on the location, but if the angler pays an entrance fee of 40,000 to 50,000 won, the whole family can enter and fish for 12 hours.
If you were feeling sorry for Dad getting ready and leaving the house without the kids in the early morning, let’s run to the West Sea, where there are wonderful driving courses and tidal flats. With smiles on the faces of not only adults but also children, isn’t this a ‘good sister and good brother-in-law’ travel destination?
