But due to some "itchiness hands" of us, we manage to dug in some free time to fish. a 4 hour fishing trip also can makes us happy for a very long time. these are the recent catch report and some big games hooks up and scenery of those memorable fishing trips we had. the fun and quarrel over a stupid barracuda. thanks to the stupid uncle. see him one time beat him one time.

lighthouse with toh and his poly friends

Actually shouldn't have post this new thread but due to kel who wanna see the pic, i shall make this post officially as part of tkk.

Was having a bad time in fishing due to overcrowding and lack of casting spot at the lighthouse. therefore toh had enough. he change his sinker into float. he make a cast and went staring at the scenery or even staring into space. until his friend told him" Hon your float is gone, got fish." Toh still can dilly dally and say "sure or not" then toh pick up his rod and immediately feel the vibration from the sea monster below. then he tried to reel in but this monster managed to swim fast which i can hear those screeching sound coming out from the reel. So toh tried to pump the rod and play tug o war with the fish. but the fish managed to hide underneath the rock and it was stuck . I can see the float but where is the fish? So toh waited and pump and waited and pump the rod. In the end, the line loosen and toh managed to reel in this beauty fish out from the sea. This fish was no match for my newly bought DAIWA Jupiter 12" rod. weight???? less than 2 kg but who cares, the fish is mine to eat. What a wonderful day. And what a beautiful fish.

A good learning trip

Kel and Toh went to con wire for night fishing. Due to the tide between low and high which are 0.3m difference. So, reach there by 1am, set up and started casting. Using sarong, sandworm, live prawn and sotong. Kel even hope to catch a stingray which might have 3 hooks on his mouth.

Sarong is a very good bait for catfish which Toh successfully catch at least a small one in every trip. But in this trip, he didn't catch any at all. The place was so quiet, the moon is there and no wind but yet no bite. so cast after cast for another few hour. even the sarong was still intact on the hook. Damn it. so around 5am they left the place for lighthouse.

So toh and kel reach there. due to the carpark was closed, toh had to park his truck at another carpark which was damn expensive. so kel had to walk in by himself while toh park his truck. after toh park his truck, he walk to the lighthouse and realise kel wasn't there. so toh kept shouting for kel. thought he might fell into the sea but he saw kel headlight and realise he went to the wrong place. he went into the restaurant area which had fence so toh had to bring him to the correct path.

So so without hestitation, we start casting and around 7am, other fishermen came. so we share the spot together. while toh park his car at the free parking area. so toh came back and saw kel pointing to the sea. and when i look at it, looks like a group of chermins trying to eat a group of tamban. The uncle says looks like a group of giant travelly trying to eat the tambans. it was around 50m away from us. so the uncle cast of lures but to chance at all.

So we start casting and casting. even the uncle says we use live prawn got chance. then suddenly, 1 uncle was playing with handline pull out a grouper. toh and kel got a shock. the uncle was actually luring for small fish but a 2kg grouper came out. So toh quickly change his sinker into float. and kept on casting around the rock but to no avail. then toh pass the rock to kel and he spend around 30min playing with the float until he give up. an uncle was looking for tamban using his tamban hook but upcame a selar. he can still says he is trying to fish for tamban but yet the wrong fish came out. and he says jokingly that i thought tamban is so heavy. and another angle uncle came so total there are 5 fishermen over there including us. and the tamban came swimming pass. the uncle managed to catch lots and lots of tamban. at this time, toh saw the uncle rod is moving and he shouted to the uncle that got fish. the uncle look around and he say no fish then he pull abit and he say got fish. then he pull and pull. it was a todak. The funny thing is as todak teeths are sharp, he took a pipe and stuff it around it's mouth. and the uncle continue to catch tamban

the uncle is a very nice person. he even offer us to use the tamban. but i rejected it cause toh can see kel already very tired and the words "I want to go home" inscribe on his forehead. So toh just tried to use the available prawns he have just to finish up the bait. and other uncle took a tamban from him and he start casting. then he saw another todak. he ask kel and toh whether we want t catch todak. toh say ok. so he prepare leader and cast out. then the todak got hook on. he pass the rod to us and tell us to play wit hit since we have nothing to do. Was that meant to be an insult?? so i start to play with the todak and then i feel insulted and pass the rod to kel. So kel starting to fight with the todak. At this time, the uncle teach us to adjust the tension whether pull or loosen the line when fighting the fish. Ok noted. then when kel caught the fish, the uncle also tell me to take photo of kel with the fish. then after that, he keep the fish. then he took another prawn shell and cast into the sea. within 2 seconds, we can hear the line screeching sound from his reel. another hook on!!! then he left it there but this todak was lucky. it ran away.

So the uncle went back t o pull his line with the tamban on. he say it was very heavy and he pull and pull saying it was rubbish. but another uncle say it was stingray. so they kept arguing until when the rubbish surfaced, they just kept quiet and remedy the hook. so the uncle started to cast out the tamban again. this is quite funny as we know there are limited space at the lighthouse, the uncle cast out line line over the lighthouse andthen he place his rod there. then he continuse to cast for tamban. at this time, his tamban rod got a huge pull. he say die. the pull is heavy but yet the hook is only for tamban. and the hook snapped eventually.

then he saw his rod shaking and he mumble to himself saying faster bite and faster bite. then we hear the line scrreching out from the reel and he fastest rush to his rod and pull it. then he say the fish is gone. he start to cast pull the line and the fish is still there. so he started to fight with the stingray and immediately got subdued in 5 min. kel and toh was looking at each other with a fcuked up face. no catch at all. the uncle again offer us the tamban but we have already started to packed up. we offer them our remaining live prawns and then we go home. they also packing up soon anyway. while packing up, the uncle teaches us about casting, baits and catching sotong. there we left the place.











And so to summaries, the fish was not caught by us. it was a total lie to Kai who wants to know the catch. sorry kai...... no luck in this trip

Stingray 2 TKK 0




Thanks to our gianess of fishing, here we go again to con wire... another boring trip with 8 small catfish caught without fight and a dunno dunno what fish caught by Kai. this fish will be carefully examined and researched by Kai. The first talk of the day was after toh woke up for a 2 hr sleep, he told kai to pack up then suddenly, kai abu rod got a strike. kai then strikes back and toh was preparing for the lip grip. But once the fish lands surface on the rock, toh immediately put the lip grip back into the tacle box. Why? because it was an eel. And so kai had to retie another cable rig.

But finally the talk of the day was when we again was preparing to use up the last piece of live prawn, Toh saw Kai rod was bending and Kai strike immediately as he was the nearest. After pulling, we can see and hear the reel turning. this big fish kept pulling back. Actually we know it was a stingray and kai even say he might lose this fight. but still, we tried our best to win this match.

So kai kept reeling in and play tug o war with it and toh had problem walking on the stone. but in the end the line snapped and that's it. kai is so tired and even his hand are shaking.

Mission pothole

After to Toh hectic weeks over, his hand has never before been so itchy. So Toh and Kai made a trip to pothole. Why pothole? because Toh truck almost deep into a very big pothole. But anyway, let's us start from the beginning.

Thanks to Gary which led us to this site... As the KBL season is ending, or maybe coming, the 2 of us went to hunt for this wild fish which is the first on our KOS list. But anyway, reach the place, looks decent and off we go, started out casting then Kai bought his new weapon, ABU ROCKET 6500 CS. and he started out good and steady. And so, he was lucky that he didn't managed to eat any fried bee hoon thanks to Gary. And so cast after cast and yet nothing happen. Until Toh caught a Duri. looks good and table size but too bad we cannot or dunno how to eat. And so we unhook the fish and set it free. The funny thing is that when we try to unhook the Duri, it came out a duck quacking sound which makes us laugh.

The second thing is that Kai and Toh tried luring and unfortunately Kai lure got stuck in the water. So Toh though since the the water is so low and he went into the water but infact the water can reach up to shoulder level. Thanks to Kai for keeping Toh stuff. But in the end toh was soaking wet.

Then we saw some small fishes jumping in groups. So toh tried to cast over to that fishes as he thinks if there are bait fish, there will be big fish. But toh cast was around 3meters near the bait fish. In the end, and yet surprisingly the bait fish got hook on to Toh rod and kai was the first to react. And so Kai suggest we use the bait fish also known as swa chiam as bait. But toh was so scared of it imagining skining of cutting your own flesh alive. So Kai left the fish to die then fillet. Looks nice on his first filleting attempt. And set off continue fishing. And so another 2 catfish were caught and we call it a day after heavy rain pouring onto us which made us soaking wet.

Lastly, Toh and kai were about to leave this place to where tha main road are, a 10 wheel truck blocking his way. Being a good citizen, toh reverse his truck but without knowing there a pot hole, the truck fell deep into it. Thanks to Kai who mamaged to pluck himself out of the pot hole and assist the uncle. if not mToh truck would have been stuck forever.

Fun trip with Hong at Lighthouse












As Kel gotta work and can't go fishing, Toh managed to contact Hong and surprisingly he agreed to go fishing with us. As planned, were supposed to go to Con-wire but Kai check the wind and tide, he say it is not a good day to go there. So we look for a place using Kai street directory. And we finally agreed agreed on Lighthouse. Why? it was a windy but yet sunny afternoon. We need to look for a southern shore to block the northern wind.

The next day, Toh went to Changi V to grab the bait then off he went to fetch Hong and Kai. Once we reach that place, we had a hard time walking because of the bushes that are blocking the path and the rocky path with many holes. But still, nothing can stop us from fishing. So we reached the destination. There's an uncle there fishing also so we start to fix our rod and cast etc. Hong help Toh to fix the rod while Kai need to fix 2 rod. Then Toh and Hong saw the uncle rod is bending and they thought the line is stuck. Then being a good citizen of Singapore, we went to help the uncle. But as we reach to the uncle who is already goes down the breakwater to get his rod fix, Toh and Hong saw a very big fish mouth. Toh was wondering what was that, and as the uncle trying to get the fish unhook, It was a grouper. WOW around 5kg grouper. The body is so beautiful. Too bad no picture.

As the uncle hesitate to bring the fish up the breakwater, he do not know what to do. 1 hand holding the rod, another hand holding the fish. Luckily, Toh were there and he managed to help him to hold the rod while the uncle unhook the fish. After he managed to unhook the fish, he hug the fish with both his hand while the fish tries to struggle. He tries to pass the fish to Toh but Toh was holding the rod. Again, Toh managed to rest the rod on the Rock, and help him to carry the fish up the rock. But Toh is acared of the fish and he rest the fish on the rock and step on it lightly to prevent the fish from running away. And the whole incident ends as the uncle managed to retrieve his rod and the fish.

Toh had an idea. He was thinking of stealing the uncle fishing rather than fishing for fishing. Or we thought the lighthouse was a cockpit of a gundam.... well haha we had nothing to do anyway. Then Kai managed to start surf casting. Then withing 10 min from his first cast, His rod started to shake. So he took a strike and start to reel in. He say got fish like no feeling like that. then he reel and reel. That when Toh rush to the tackle box to get their secret weapon. the "LIP GRIP". So Toh goes down the rock and managed to grip the lip of the fish and then he pass the fish to Kai and the fish was subdued within a minute. Although it was a catfish, but the catfish is the biggest we ever caught. That kai catch and that's why we name him the "king of catfish". HAHA.... well anyway, we do not eat catfish, we give it to the uncle who caught the grouper. As the uncle had no plastic bag for the catfish, Toh kindly went to his truck and grab some plastic bag for the uncle but yet the plastic bag blown away and landed on the sea. Damn it. wasted. Shouldn't pass him the plastic bag. Then after awhile, his styrofoam box with air pump flew away. He tries to retrieve the box by casting his rod again and again. Kai and Toh tries to help him but the uncle gave them no chance to cast. But to Toh, so what if the box is gone, the uncle had a big grouper to bring home.

Then there were a couple came in and fish. We call them Mr and Mrs Lao Fu Zi because they look like 1. But they look so unfriendly in the beginning and cast their rod to our side. Ok nvm we endure. But as time goes on, the grouper uncle had no bait left and started to pack up. So all the angler cluster at the lighthouse to fish. The lady lao fu zi had a hard time fishing as she kept on getting a stuck. But the most funny part is after a cast, within a minute, she got a 1kg grouper. She pulled the grouper out of the sea and the fish line and the grouper flew and landed on the rock. Even the uncle was stunted, shocked and surprised as the fish almost hit him.

Then another angler came in where he came with only a few dead prawn. So he cut the prawn and casting for small fish as bait. He also look unfriendly but in the end, all the angler are good friends. After a few cast, the guy caught a few samll fish which he use it for his long rod surf casting. While he tries to catch some bait, he caught a grouper so small around the size of a guy thumb. Haha... Even he look at us and also laugh. Then he went to the end of the Lighthouse and start to cast. As he was very near the couple, they started chit chatting. The lady Lao fu zi kept on talking to the guy. While we were talking the Uncle lao fu zi looks jealous. It's like a scandal scene. But the most funny thing is the lady walk pass Hong and she ask Hong' Looking at the aeroplane?" Then Hong got a shocked and he say yes. Haha then Kai told Toh, Hong is also the 3rd party.

But finally, we start packing up as we feel a bit of rain water. Our mission to show off our fish to kel has failed. Thought of going to Sheng Siong to buy fish and show off to Kel. But in the end, we show 3 roasted pork to him instead.
