Yishun...

First day of Ramadan and we were already itching to try a new spot at Yishun. Haziq, Elfie and Dinie arrived at 10 plus. We started to cast our kelong sotong in hopes of biggies..The first cast didn't let Dinie down as his rod was starting to bend again since the encounter with the siakap. As the fish was brought near to the breaker, a 1kg plus Blukang surfaced. Fortunately the leader line snapped as Dinie didn't intend to keep the fish. Next, Haziq reeled in another Blukang which was quickly released. The weather was not in our favour as it started to rain now and then. At the end of the trip Elfie's rod which missed quite a few started to bend as well. Within a few minutes a 1kg plus duri was subdued. After surveying the new spot for the first time, the comment is that it was potentially good taking into consideration the weather and the tide. Thanks to Menglong for sharing with us tips on the spot. We appreciate the help! Hope we can go fishing together some day...

Pasir Ris Beach Again...

This fishing trip before the month of Ramadan consisted of Fariz,Dinie,Elfie,Faisal,Taufiq Kong,Haziq and our new kaki Faisal. We decided to stay in the east this time at pasir ris beach and tried a spot that used to be good a few years back. That particular saturday was scorching hot as the those who reached the spot first already start to hallucinate after a few hours due to the unbearable heat ( ask Faisal because he was the worst.Haha.). During that time the fish weren't even nibbling. Faisal, our newest kaki was satisfied with his first catch of an usat. Congrats for a slow but good start. A few minutes later Fariz arrived with the liquid of life! Bottles of cold mineral water! Bless u Faris. As the rest arrived everything continued to be slow. Bite rates didn't change until we changed spot as the tide was receeding. Faris was first to get some action as he reeled in a good size pinang2. Next, Dinie and Elfie reeled in a duri belalang each. As Elfie left for home, an uncle who fixed a net in the water gave us a total of 9 Scats,1 orange spotted grouper,1 toadfish and a few catfishes.The pics for that will be uploaded soon!

Ubin

Prelim is finally over! Time for holidays/studybreak...This time the crew planned on a trip to Pulau Ubin, a bbq/angling fiesta! We tried a new spot which was known by the locals as Aik Hwa since we've been hearing stories of ppl landing good fishes there. The morning started out rough with heavy downpour. After the rain the fishes seem so quiet that not even one of our 10 rods gave any obvious signals. Pest like usats that are always plentiful only got hooked up twice. A few hours before the van picked us up Haziq,Dinie and Elfie decided to leave the rest and try out Sungei Puaka. As soon as we made the first cast, the rods start to bend like mad. As we were anticipating the arrival of the fish, the identity of the fish was still a mystery until Elfie brought up a 1kg plus Blukang. Decent size but not decent species of catfish though. This followed by Haziq who reeled in another Blukang at 2kg. Next another of our buddy, Yee Chien arrived to bring pliers. He didn't miss out the action as he reeled in another blukang which was smaller then the first two. Lousy day at Ubin but the experience with friends is still a memorable one. Enjoy the pics and funny video..

Pasir Ris Beach

This trip happened today as Dinie and Taufiq a.k.a Usat Man were god damn bored. So it was 4hrs of relaxation and angling time to soothe the boredom. The only fish worth bringing home was a flounder a.k.a sisa nabi which was caught by Dinie. Taufiq lived up to his name by catching a baby usat and a baitfish. No hard feelings mate. Don't worry man...one day u'll catch a record breaking one such that catching usat will no longer be a laughing matter.

The only catch worth to be in a picture

SAF Yacht Club Revisited

This trip which consisted of Dinie,Haziq and Siva happened on the 3rd of august next to SAF yacht club. We met up and started fishing at about 12am until 4am. Although Haziq didn't manage to break his fall when he slipped on the slippery breaker, he managed to break the silence for that night by landing a duri and a gelama consecutively. As we were about to leave some friendly chinese guy gave us a 1kg plus gemang which was brought home by Haziq.

Why the long face? Haha

Boat Trip : Singapore Waters

Haven't been updating the blog lately so here are the cr's that hav been piling up. First and foremost would be the boat fishing trip that Dinie's dad went on. He came home with a 3.5 kg sandray and an ungah tanda. He said he gave away the groupers he caught to the people who wasn't that lucky on that day.Here are the pics.
