When we pass the strait between Lefkas and mainland we will leave our trolls to fish, trying to catch dolphin fish, as we are passing the island Meganisi and discover the small islands Kalamos and Formicullas at the east side of Lefkas island, where we will do our first standing fishing. This time we will try to catch giltheads, black seabreams, white seabreams, pandoras, seabreams and blackspot seabreams.
PortoLeone of Kalamos will be our destination for the night, which in the ancient years, the notorious pirates called “Megaphones” used as a hideout to attack ships for thefts and slave trade.
