Jundia
Striking Beauty, Fierce Fight: The Jundia/Leopard Catfish
Jundia, also known as Leopard Catfish (Leiarius marmoratus), are a captivating catch for anglers. Their stunning looks are hard to miss – a mesmerizing display of honeycombed patterns graces their entire body, including the fins, tail, and even their whiskers!
Despite their delicate appearance, Jundia are fantastic fighters on lighter catfish gear. These fish have a distinct feeding style. They'll approach the bait cautiously and use their small mouths to nibble and test it for a while. But once they decide to take it, be prepared for an explosive fight! Jundia erupt in lightning-fast runs, testing your skills and tenacity.
Unfortunately for them, they taste so good too ...........
