Fishing in Singapore is getting harder. To get fish, one must go to a kelong for fishing, boat for fishing or even paypond to fish. But at least there are still some fish. It's up to the angler to try! Alright guys, i am finally going to update my blog with a September trip! This was the LG(Lorry Gang) second trip out with Abang to Southern waters. Anticipation was high since the last trip was pretty outstanding! In fact abang told us the previous day his boat got 25 pcs of fish including 18pcs ang cho... We travelled to the sotong spot to scoop our sotongs and they were in quite good numbers. By 11pm we were already travelling to the fishing grounds with ample ammo....But it was NOT GOOD... Fish were'nt biting and there is an abundance of sealice around. What to do... just wet our lines first! We had a few bites around midnight and later on at 2am when Abang shifted to a secret spot... an underwater sea cave that is around 20m high extending from the seabed... I go...

Sneak preview! The report is finally here after a long wait... I first got the glimpse of the Yellow Tail Kingfish when I saw one of Mark Berg's Fishing Adventures shows. That episode i watched was fishing at New Zealand with Epic Adventures... We were craving for a fishing + rest relax holiday somewhere not too expensive i.e. Europe and not too near i.e. China... so NZ was an excellent choice. Only 800 SGD away by Jetstar budget airlines! We rented an MPV and drove to Tairua while visiting many other locations including Hobbiton film site also known as the "Shire". They're building up a new site now for the new Hobbit movie... Well, you saw the food pictures some blog posts back and now it's the fishing part! We booked a 2 day fishing trip with Epic Adventures Carl but unfortunately the first day was cancelled due to bad weather! What a bummer for us to go during winter! 2nd day was fine and Carl put us up with Toby for another day so we still had two da...

This trip was booked a few months in advanced as i wanted to plan an offshore in which my uncle, father and brother could come. So we had to book a weekday during the school holidays. On the trip was Shawn, Nick and son... my dad's friend and his kid was also on the trip. Our merry gang made our way to Changi Village to board the fishing boat. I had booked Uncle fong or ah pong boat's for the fishing gang. We boarded the boat at Changi Point Ferry Terminal. This was the place that people board the ferry to Pulau Ubin. We bought 2kg of live prawns and i bought some live Milk fishes too. The fishes were firing for this trip although sizes were pretty small. At 1000 hrs, i was pretty scared that we had not bought enough prawns! We had landed a mix of fishes and i caught a decent Ang Cho around 1kg My brother's second time fishing but he landed 5 fishes in the morning including one very handsome Ang Kuey or Red Snapper. Lunch time was not so good and i only landed two ...

New Paint job!! And new video during field testing!!! And how's this for fishing!!!

Ok guys i guess i'll be trying to go into the art of lure making lol so today i had some free time i thought why not make a popper for Sailfish and Toman... so i grabbed a water bottle to make a fishing lure called a popper. It was done in 5 mins... And cost less than a dollar. Can't wait to test this thing out... Don't laugh at me... Will make improvements like wiring, cuphead, rattles etc etc in future lol it will be version 2... The good thing about the water bottle is that you can just adjust any weight you want by adding weight into the water bottle via the cap... hehe Any suggested names for the water bottle popper??? Right not it's WBP Version 1 hahaha!!!

Tutukaka was actually our third and last day fishing at New Zealand but I have enough time for only a short article so I'll start from here! Tutukaka jigging and fishing was actually not planned in our itinery but we were loving New Zealand so much that we extended our stay for another 2 days! Thankfully, Tony over at Yeehaa Tackle arranged a trip at short notice for us with Alan. Alan is our guide for the day and he is from Beijing. At Yeehaa Tackle The boat cost was $800 NZD for the day and Alan's fee was 100 NZD. We felt it was pretty reasonable as Alan drove all the way to Tutukaka from Auckland. It was a few hours night drive! Petrol was split at the end of the day. Tutukaka! We finally reached our boarding destination. I saw that our skipper was a good old skipper who looked very experienced. He had the looks of a good ol sea salt! He may be old but he knew jigging alright! Our boat! The Skipper brought us in the "World's Largest Seacave" to have ...
