Desaru Fishing Trip with Ah Long Desaru

Image
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

Singapore Fishing: Sam Law and Ah Fong Fishing Updates (2024)

Image
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

GT Fishing Pond at Brother Fishing Pond, Perlis

Image
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.

The place where coral trout grow on trees

Image
Ah, the great outdoors. Short of being a dryad, these four words beautifully describe Merchong. And then you add some beef, some lamb, some tapah, some soon hock, some coral trout, some cuttlefish...  Here we are! Year 2024 in Merchong, Nenasi and with new friends. Our new friends were very positive and their target in two days of Merchong fishing was the humble coral trout. I say humble because it is just quite common here and we don't even need to go to Tioman or the faraway Jubilee reef to fish for them. Heck, we don't even go as far as Pulau Berhala. Anyway, catching the tasty ang gao here is quite predictable, just need to be lucky and present your bait well.  So did our friends hit their target? Yes! All the newbies to Merchong hit beautiful red groupers and they even busted off some bigger ones that couldn't be stopped. Champion of the trip was Ah Bao who hit three ang gaos on sabiki.  Sharing the catch report and food reports... Nothing special to share, because eve

New Prawning Pond in Singapore for 2024: Olden Days Prawning

Image
In case you all don't know yet, a new prawning pond has opened at 10 Neo Tiew Lane 2! Called Olden Days Prawning, the prawning pond is opened daily and 24 hours. What was the most surprising for me is their current price for prawning. They are doing it at 1 hour - $9.99, 2 hours - $15.99 and 3 hours - $19.99. Quite a good deal as these are way below prawning pond rates. The location isn't new and used to be operated by Ah Hua Fishing and Prawning . Address: 10 Neo Tiew Lane 2, Singapore 718813 (located within Gallop Kranji Farm Resort) Contact number: 8756 4984 Check out Olden Days Prawning Facebook and TikTok !

Tuas Offshore Fishing with Wreckhunter

Image
Looks can be deceiving. It has been almost two years since our last trip with Wreckhunter and we were all looking forward to get some chomek (squid). The thoughts of live chomek with maggi filled our heads as we prepared our night fishing tackle at RSYC. Fishing at RSYC brings back some memories as I have had many trips with the Singapore fishing charters here. Prepping our gears at RSYC (Republic of Singapore Yacht Club) Joining us on this trip was Sir Cain, the cousin of Emmanuel (who runs the Korean Fishing Guide Service as a business) so we were pretty stroked. We have seen Cain in action before and he is clearly a beast when it comes to "pumping" the fish up! The target of the day though chomek and frankly speaking, fishing was rather secondary. We scooped about 40 pieces of chomek at Tuas, ate 20 of them and set aside the rest for fishing. We told ourselves if the live bait runs out, we will just use "kelong sotong" or frozen sotong. After all, our stomachs a
