Snakehead fishing in Thailand | MegaFishingThailand

Snakehead fishing in Thailand is very exciting and most of the time anglers are surrounded by natural beauty and unforgetable scenery on some of Thailand wildest national parks and jungle destinations. These beautiful predatory fish are hard fighting and a great challenge to any anglers visiting Thailand for an unforgetable fishing experience. For snakehead’s we usually use lure fishing in particular ‘topwater surface lure’ fishing techniques. Frog lures, buzzbaits and popper lures are the most popular types of baits to use but snakeheads will also take live and or dead baits readily.
