Yes yes, I know there are so many articles and posts now recommending you places to go fishing in Singapore. However, when you go read them, most of them are just fairly descriptive and is probably adapted from somewhere else. No personal snippets, no personal tips and are just plain click bait-ish. So, I thought why not just write about recommended fishing charters that I have personally went on before. That makes things a little more personal and it’s these nuggets that really do help people make decisions. Below recommended fishing charters/boatman in Singapore are not ranked by order of preference but alphabetical.

Hi guys, I just read from Alan's blog that Chop Hock Heng fishing tackle shop will be closing down by the end of March 2012. They will be closing retail operations. Chop Hock Heng are one of the oldest tackle shops in Singapore and it joins five dots in closing down. The stretch of tackleshops at Beach road is now never the same that Sabre Tackle and Chop Hock Heng are gone. So go down and grab the house brands of Chop Hock Heng before the retail shop cloes. Hunch is that other tackle shops will be grabbing existing stocks of these jigs like white rabbit, protech and they will probably be selling them at a more expensive price! Btw, there is no indication that there will be any closing down sales so don't bet on it!

TCE Tackles grand opening made it to the newspapers on 8 January Sunday... So i went to have a look. It's finally good to have a tackle shop near me. Shawn was on the way to pick me up for fishing so i told him why not visit the grand opening and see what they have. They also have door gifts and food... Here's the address and contacts! TCE TACKLES SINGAPORE PTE LTD NO.1, BUKIT BATOK CRESCENT #02-30 W'CEGA PLAZA, 658064 SINGAPORE TELEPHONE: +65 6684 2628 EMAIL: INFO@TCETACKLES.COM.SG WEBSITE: WWW.TCETACKLES.COM.SG The place is quite big and has free ample parking but might pose a problem for those without their own transport.

Most of them are Malaysian brands. I kinda liked the Bakau lure seri...

Hi everyone, here in Singapore we are very particular about our bait. Tackleshops sell live prawns and live fish for bait. Another popular bait is "Kelong Sotong". The term comes from squid which are caught from the kelong. Usually these squids are smaller in size 4 - 5 inches and have not touched freshwater... This seperates them from the market squid. Fishermen here believe that the "smell" of the kelong squid attracts fishes and it is a must have bait for surfcasting or night offshore. Kelong sotong i got from Garry Chua.... notice the bright eyes Kelong squid is expensive but we still do not care about the price as all of us believe it is effective... Here are some contacts if you are going out fishing and need kelong sotong... Kerry a.k.a Shoreangler - 81823573 $30/kg. His stocks are from Bedok Jetty Garry Chua - 91833757 $25/kg.
