An awesome specimen! So this Ah Fong fishing trip was slightly interesting because of two things... We were fishing shallow reefs and I love to fish at such fishing spots simply because there are a lot of small reef fish to catch on sabiki rig. However, this time they were gone (the last time I caught so many assorted reef fish with bare sabiki rig)! I tried sabiki with prawn meat to tempt them but I got busted off by two bruisers. The kind of fish that take off once I set hooked. And of course, I got rattled by Ah Fong. But when I tried thicker lines with flasher hooks, they wouldn't take again. Apparently, the thin sabiki lines made them commit... I later on caught a mangrove jack with sabiki but that was just poor, boring fight. Yep, it took sabiki without bait Flasher rig didn't work Meanwhile... My size made the fish look small again. This was around 2kg. We had to call it off halfway though as the weather got really nasty. Yummy fish though. Fairly decent fishing Balek ka...

So, yet another overdue catch report and this time from one of the best fishing captains in the north - Jeff Tsen or some people call him "captain underpants". Dad isn't so well these days and fishing the whole day can be tiring for him so I cooked up a half day trip onboard the Prince of Peace (POP) fishing boat. I was kinda worried that Dad wouldn't catch anything but he still showed that he got that fishing blood in him by bagging a good barramundi that we dispatched at 1036 Seafood at the club after fishing. Very tasty looking kim! Dad looking edgy Caught a small snapper! Dad yanked this kbl into the boat in double time Nick scored a good one but lost a whopper. See video here . Really precious time spent with Dad. Thanks Jeff! Beautiful barramundi The amigos We slurped up everything

A standard day out with Sam Law It's been literally more than three months since this catch report on Sam Law but still not short of amazing. Sam Law has been producing super fishing catch reports over the last few years. He is one of the most consistent fishing gurus around in Singapore. This trip wasn't working too well for me as I was mostly doing jigging. But not too bad, caught a couple of groupers on jig and also a sweetlips (must catch because of the tee shirt). But Sam took the mickey out of me for not catching any snappers. Very fat fish! This was actually quite big at 1kg but not sure why photo so small Good gao The snappers were biting! Joshua on a roll Really easy fishing today with shallow fishing spots so we used small sinkers and light setups. Almost explode box Kaci t shirt of shame Some of the snappers were really good sized Good day! We had dinner at our favourite zhi char after Sam Law. One of the best steamed fish I have eaten in my life in and of Singapore!...

When you need fish, he is there! Aeroplane, aeroplane. Kaki cannot make it for cost sharing trip tomorrow. That was the shout out from Jeff and before he could even say no, we mustered a few of us to go for a half day trip. The three Bs! Baktao, Biao, Bao.  Expectations weren't really high especially after the rain at the Pulau Ubin fishing spot got us.  The rain was literally smacking us. Kinda painful! But hey, sometimes, one good fishing spot is all it takes to find the feeding fishes and have a good haul. Ah Bao nailed one on jig with his eging setup ! Decent size Mangrove Jack Even better was the rainbow at the end of the trip! Sunshine after the rain Fishing with good kakis. Very impressive for half a day fishing. Set off in the afternoon, came back in the evening Really a bit too big Decent day of fishing! Fishing is a little like that don't you think? @baktao Blessed #humpday ! Monday is a little like the rain. Wednesday is when you see a peak of sunshine and Friday...

Fishing Batu Pahat with the legends. It had been more than two years since our previous Batu Pahat fishing trip . I thoroughly enjoyed our first Batu Pahat kurau jigging trip for reasons that only a bottom fisherman would understand. Batu Pahat offers the chance to catch excellent table fish. The fishing style also suits us because the main targets include golden snapper, grouper, grunter, kurau and senangin. If you are unsure about the last two species, read our guide explaining the difference between kurau and senangin . When slots became available for another trip, joining was a no-brainer. This time, I travelled with Biao, Bao, Ho and Baks. It was also Bao’s birthday, which made the trip even more special. Batu Pahat Fishing Trip Details Location: Batu Pahat, Johor, Malaysia Fishing boat: Kurau Haven Captain: Captain Tony Fishing organiser: David Fishing style: Light jigging and bottom fishing Target species: Golden snapper, grouper, grunter, k...
