Went to east coast last night with my old bud Shang. We planned to catch up and get on for some fishing action. So we proceeded to a random water breaker and started setting up . We were completely oblivious to what to happen next...The tide was rising pretty fast...Hmm..A good sign for fishing. However, as soon as we turned our backs, we realised the water breaker was already surrounded with water. We felt !@#$^&* stranded. Eventually we went down the back of the WB to get to shore. And guess what...The water was at chest level! Upon reaching shore totally drenched, I realised my damn phone got wet and of course gone case. Shang apparently slipped on the rocks and got a deep cut on his foot. Looks really painful. With 300g of live prawns, I left the spot while Shang went back with his buddy to tend to his injuries.
I took taxi home and called my cousin Dre if he wanted to go pond. Better news, my dad was home which meant I get to drive to farmway for more fishing. So i took a quick shower, got the keys, pick up my cousin and drove off to farmway. It was fun first time driving as a license holder. So I parked the car outside, paid the cash and started fishing. It took us 2 long hours of waiting before Dre hauled up 1kg plus MJ. The fight looked pretty good with the fish stripping the line off the spool now and then. After that no more action. We saw a freaking huge grouper right in front of us but it didn't want our bait. Shortly after that, a guy came with a floater hooked with a small japanese fish. 10 secs and barm! The fat grouper was hooked he fought the fish for a solid 5 mins before Dre help scoop it up. The guy was worried it was 5kg but to his relieve it was just 4.2kg which means CnK (Catch and Keep). Here's the pic of the MJ caught. Till next time.
Mangrove Jack!!
