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...

Fishing for Hirasuzki (Blackfin Seabass) with the best fishing guide in Korea

Image
Hirasuzuki fishing experience in Jeju I've never thought I'd be fishing in Korea all my life. Seriously! So when the opportunity to do some fishing in Jeju popped up, I couldn't say no. It was a completely gut based decision based on the goal that was to eat the korean hirasuzuki also known as blackfin seabass. I heard that the fight of the fish wasn't that great but I was very curious about eating it! To make my fishing dream come true, I engaged Hyunwook, whom I think is the best fishing guide in Korea and didn't regret it one bit (read below).  Family Fishing Holiday  This trip to Jeju was meant as a family holiday so I only had a day or two to go fishing for the hirasuzuki. It also meant I had to go fishing at night which was perfect since Hyunwook, said night fishing for hirasuzuki is the norm and recommended. So it was family outings in the day for me and then over to night luring! Since it was a family holiday, I did not bring anything and all equipment was...

Ah Fong Fishing in September 2023

Image
I couldn't make it for this trip but the live updates from the guys were very exciting. They finished their prawns after lunch and had to go to the farm to top up prawns.  Beautiful snapper. Who says jigging not possible at Changi? We hereby named him ang cho kiat~! Baiters didn't xia suay also lah Kiat was the hero on this trip, scoring a good sized ang cho aka golden snapper on jig. Purist jigging style came up tops! 

Ah Fong Changi Fishing in August 2023

It's been some time since we hit a decent haul off Changi waters. So this one really felt sweet. The most effective fishing method was fishing right off the bottom with tenya and bottom hugging techniques.
