Short trip to FW3

Tuesday night after having dinner with jarrett and friends we decided to visit FW3 to kill some itch. Oh ya now fw3 only open 24 hours on weekends, 7pm to 7am on weekdays so if you guys are heading down pls take note about this.

Necro and TT recently had a trip there as well and they told me that the fishes there seems to be taking flies nowadays, so i bring along some of my flies to see if it really works kekeke. That night not much anglers around we start fishing at about 11pm, first i try casting around with some rubbers here and there but hmmm no takers at all.

OH well i think i should try those flies i tie kekeke

And you know what lol after a few cast i got a nice playing barra. all i did was twitch twitch pause-twitch twitch pause. My line went out during the pause, when the fish came in then we realise that it was a foul hook on the head of the fish.

I did not even set my hook.



After releasing the fish back into the pond i carry on with the twitch twitch pause method and after a few more cast lol i hitted another fish. Fight was good.... when the fish came up to surface, wow it was a pacu my first pacu on artificial.

This one was NOT a foul hook liao guys the fish took the flie during the pause, flie was hooked on the mouth of the pacu.





Before we call it a day i hitted a bigger fish which i can't manage to bring it up for photos hai.... it could be a chao phraya catfish. But never mind lucky the hook came off or else i'll be fighting the fish for another hour or so, then the next day no need go to work liao lol.

Jarrett was sad as he did not manage to get any fish that night.

28lb World Record Speckled Peacock Bass

While i was doing some search for video's on youtube, i found this video on youtube posted by hookinfishonline on March 02, 2010.

So i clicked it and wow.... a 28lb bass on a G.loomis Escape Series rod "3 pcs travel rod" But he did not mention about when it was caught.

If singapore has this kind of size fishes in our reservoir i don't mine getting myself caught again lol.

Local light jigging trip on may day

My prev trip on his boat was consider good enuff, we had 20 over Sagai's landed on jigs and bit of other fishes on baits.






This was my 2nd trip on his boat i will still say its worth trying again and again lol, he is the best boatman ever i came across so far in local. But somehow result for jigging that was not good , i guess the season for Sagai is over liao. Lucky we got buy 1kg of live prawns standby hahaha "1 kg of bait is not enuff"

But ... but... still we enjoyed the trip.



We setted off at about 9am in the morning , the boatman bring us to a jetty like place to try jigging our luck for awhile . There were some takes but nothing was hooked up so we leave the place to another spot. Boatman told us that we abit late for the Sagai liao so i decided to use bait hahaha.

My first fish of the day




On my prev trip my hong kong hook was to big liao so this time i got a smaller size de, this time we landed quite a number of parrot fish on live prawns. Using hong kong hook is not an easy thing kekeke i'm still learning how to work the hook with the current.

Rigging the hong kong hook is simple just put your leader through the hole on the lead and snell the hook, put your bait and you are ready to fish.

If you are just doing light bottom fishing at that area 1kg of live prawns is not enuff lol as there are too many small fish around the area liao.

You will need a lots of baits to play the game, on every drop you will encounter lots of bites from the small ones. Once you feel the fishes biteing lift your rod a bit move the bait away from the fishes then drop it back for them again. In this way it may trigger the bigger fish around the area to come snatching food from the small fish.









I hooked up a 6lb queenie on live prawn during the fall of my bait.


When the current start picking up and we had not much of baits in the live well we moved to another spot for jigging but luck was not on our side.


Jarrett only manage to hook up a small chermin.


We moved too many spot liao till i can't remember lol, we kept moving and trying. Lucky at the end of the day i hitted the 1 and only Sagai of the day and jarrett hitted a 8lb queen on jig.


Jig was removed before photos


Our total catch of the day was not so good compared to the prev trip hai.... it could be better if we had more baits. Oh well.... the next trip we will get more baits kekeke



Our next trip will be on may 28th, We will be setting off super early on that day as we will be trying new stuff on his boat.

Luring cum trolling cum jigging cum baiting kekeke.

Some jigs jarrett got back from taiwan

Recently jarrett and a few of our friends went to taiwan for holiday , he happen to drop by 2 tackle shops there


















some of the jigs are cheap but some i rather get it in singapore.....

Few more days to go .......for another local light jigging trip.... hopefully it will be as good as my last trip lol. I'll be also trying out small rubbers and flies this time kekeke see if i could get some Spanish Flag Snapper with rubbers....

My recent trip in the morning

Recently mondo got his new BC set (shimano calcutta B 201 pairing with a major stick) so we decided to do some fishing in the morning. when we reached the spot i was kinda sad becos there was a net right in front of where we are going to fish. Maybe due to the nets fishes was very less that morning and they are far out from us lol.



After casting for awhile 2 more anlgers came in to the hole somehow they are not aware of the net ,1 of them casted his lure right into the net. But his lucky lor 2 foreigner workers came to check their nets lol and helped him to get back the lure. The 2 anlgers leave after awhile as no point staying anymore lol once the 2 foreigner workers went into the water splashing here and there i don't think the fishes will come in liao.



End of the day Mondo still manage to get his first fish on his new set up


Small one for me too lol


2 fish for this trip only sad sad hopefully the next trip there will be better.
