Decent day considering we got cut off by 5 spanish macks aka batang Great eating fish! Was a little windy today! Need to display the fishes Biao again?! We went... too far. Must straighten the fish It was another action-packed weekend out in the waters off Desaru, and the crew at Baktao is excited to share our latest offshore adventure! 🎣 Date: 10-11 May 2025 📍 Location: Desaru, Johor, Malaysia at Tanjong Lompat 🛥️ Vessel: Ah Long Fishing Local Charter 🌊 Tide: Medium rising tide with a strong evening current (ChatGPT said this) 🎯 Target Species: Parrotfish, Grouper, Golden Snapper, and Cobia The Journey & Conditions We set out from the Desaru jetty early on Saturday morning. The weather was near perfect—slightly overcast skies with calm seas and a light breeze. Water clarity was fair, and the current started picking up around noon, giving us great conditions for bottom bouncing and drifting. The boat was fully equipped with fresh squid, live prawns, and some sabiki rigs to cat...

Not much catch report... just a trip with Ah Long from Desaru Tanjong Lompat, where we went quite far out for some bottom fishing. We went so far we even saw Ah Jiang Sportfisher. Bottom fishing was good, lost a few bigger fish, lots of nibblers around, we released the smaller fish below 800g. The fishes don't look big in the picture but they're actually table sized!  It was fun fishing with PE 1 gear and light sinkers... Great work-out on Zenaq Ikari 1.5 They really seem to love tenya... Great day, finished early and went for makan. Tasty, tasty bottom fish. Got video ok? @baktao Relax fishing at Tanjong Lompat, Desaru. #desaru #fishing #fishinglife ♬ Waterfalls - Death Cab for Cutie

Prawning rates are usually $30 to $40+ per 3 hrs and the only difference for some operators is whether they allow you to store your hours, split the 3 hrs into 2 rods. Promotions are available for many operators so have a look at their Facebook page or website. It's best to do your research on where has the most prawns and promotions for the period you are going at. Prawning pond operators, do contact me to update your listings here.

Catches from the pond. Photos posted with permission from pond owner. A new fishing pond called Hook Me Up (HookMe Up Fishing paradise) has opened at Punggol Marina (Marina Country Club). This new pond has replaced the former Gills Fishing. I guess this is good news as there is so little fishing ponds left in Singapore now. Let's support them so we can have a few places in Singapore for pond fishing!

Combined Saw Law Fishing and Ah Fong Fishing Updates (2024) So the group managed to pull together some Sam Law and Ah Fong fishing trips (local Singapore fishing trips) over the past few months. I haven't managed to update due to being super busy, so posting a few photos to archive the trips! One of our most recent trips. Not fantastic size but decent quantity of snappers with Sam Law. Sabiki rigs were working too. It was my first time using sabiki the whole day and I was quite satisfied to catch a few fish. Jigs were working that day! Another angle of the fish Bad trip, not much fish... But I scored two snappers on jigs, jackall 100g :) Another one fell for the jackall 100g And a decent sized parrotfish for me! Jon caught a good stingray on abu conolon! The catch tanked that day though... Special guest threadfin! Greedy hybrid grouper took both our baits... Celeste with a monster mangrove jack... probably about 4kg Photos don't do the monster MJ justice... Also the discovery o...

Su Yin with his first GT Handline rod! Landed a few GTs with eging setups and light setups. Really love using fun baits... Had a fun trip with Sherwin, Vinz and Su Yin over at Brother Fishing Pond in Perlis, Malaysia where we tested out the handline fishing rod, created by Jeff from RodStation. Instead of lures, we brought truck loads of fish bait like salmon, barramundi, groupers and the fish loved it.  Luring feels like a sham here, no skill or technique needed. Basically, once you start berleying, anything that went in resulted in a hook up and we got quite a bit of hits on spoons. @baktao Fishing for GT at Brother Fishing Pond, Perling with basic gears.
