Another con-wire trip

Since Kai loves this spot so much, and Kel looks jealous by Kai photo, Ok this trip was planned and was suppose to do a afternoon fishing. But the tide timing looks indecent and we planned for a night till day fishing. So Kel and Kai got new rod, new reel, just like Chinese new year. Have to wear new clothes.

But anyway, everything was pack and ready to move out. Reach the destination 1 hr late and Kel start casting immediately. He was so fast that Kai and toh thought he tie his leader at home but no he tie on the spot once he reached the place. So fast. And so fishing begun..... kel had a rod bend and he strike it... he missed ok and there was a time when 3 of our rod start shaking. Maybe the strong wave but that is the fun time of this trip. then around 3 hours later, Kel strike his rod and we can hear the tension caused by his reel. It was definitely a big fish. The fish kept pulling and pulling and suddenly, the line snapped. Damn it thanks to the con wire. But its ok. in terms of fishing, is whether you defeated the fish or you got busted by the fish. But of course, that was the talk of the day.

And fishing goes on. Kai Abu rod got a few shake at times but nothing was caught. Might be the crab. then near sunrise, strong winds start blowing and the waves getting bigger and rough. The waves causes our rod to shake. While holding our rod, we can even feel the vibration of the wind. I think thats about it as it was another boring trip. Damn the wind.... Dman the waves...

Recce reservoir Failed

Kel told Toh that he dun mind go for fresh water fishing. Ok so Toh goes to upper seletar reservoir to recce. That play was so dark, windy and lots of lover couples. Toh was the only guy without a girl. So shameful and he was along the dark footway looking for fishing spot while the couples there making out.

Ok so Toh got out of that place immediately since he can't find a spot and so Toh went to seletar dam to look for spot. He bypass a jetty and ask the police whether the area can do fishing. The police also dunno whether the place can fish and ask his comrade. And they say yes this place can fish. So Toh walk towards the jetty and looks at a few uncles doing net fishing. They caught around 4 to 5 big crabs with crawls bigger than their bodies. WOW it looks juicy and nice. Even the police came by and looks at the uncle tying the crab.

This is the spot.... Toh talking to himself and he and Kel went to this spot aroun 12mn. But after a few cast, a guy came and tie his boat, scolded us for fishing here as the weight might spoiled his propeller. Dman it spoil our mood. So we set off to punggol and fish. Another boring trip as there is no fish but only full of mosquitoes. And so we pack up around 6am and the talk of the day is we saw a dog swims all the way from Punggol beach to coney island. Wow coney island was so far, around 500m away. We can even see where the dog is.... END

A surprised kaki

A fishing trip was planned, Punggol. And guess who? it was Jianhong who agreed to go fishing with us. WoW!!! What happen? Is he boed or is he sad??? no one knows well anyway, we had a fun time chit chatting instead of fishing. And Kel caught a plastic bag. The funny thing is he had a hard time fighting the plastic bag and he say the fish is very heavy. Well, everything ends up with no fish but yet a very happy chit chatting sessions with Jianhong

Ubin...

In this trip, Toh was in Mexico for his internship. So they start planning to go fishing after Toh came back to Singapore. And the destination to feed the fish is Pulau Ubin.

Around evening5pm, they meet up at Changi Village and went for a heavy dinner. Soon after, all packed up and went to the jetty to board the boat. Once reached there, around 6.30pm rods were being cast out into the sea. Soon after that 2 malay guy came and share the same spot with us. The malay guy might come to this place to fish frequently. Cause even the police came and talk to him for about 15 mins.

Oh well, the malay also started to fish using worms. They use a very short rod. In fact, they kept on catching fish while we had ZERo00000. Everytime we hear the bell rings, it was the mlay guy rod shaking. we had a very boring trip as we kept on looking at those malay guy rod which kept shaking.

But 1 funny thing is they caught a snapper but the fish drop while they trying to pull it up from the jetty. And Toh is trying to catch that snapper with a hook on its mouth. Haha and in the end he caught an eel. Damn it, he was so frustrated that he threw the eel away in the dustbin because eels likes to entangle themselves and suffocated.

Forgotten Kai or Kel got a GUGU fish also known as stargazer. Gugu fish also likes to swollow the entire hook and stuck in the mouth. We had no choice but to release it with the hook in the mouth.

And so everything goes as normal, taking photos of the nice morning scenery. And we need to wait for 2 hours just to get enough people to go back to Singapore mainland.

Mission Hyundai Failed

Thought of going to Hyundai because that place is infested with fishes.... Guaranteed by Toh. But the place were area blocked by the Government. We try other alternative route but to no avail. Therefore, we had to settle for a place near that site. While walking to the site, we saw a few man doing net casting and a queenie on the grass... Damn, they caught a queenie. This booast our morale; meaning this plae got big fish.

So off we go and start casting immediately. There were many people there so we had to settle near the drain. To add insult on this trip, heavy thunderstorm soon reach our destination. But luckily we had rain coat with us. Although we are still wet, But we still managed to keep 70 percent of our body dry. This time, Kai rod is moving. So Kai is trying to pull his rod and he felt a large sea monster pulling his bait so instantly that he had no time to fight back. Kai even told Toh that he can feel the fish is damn heavy. He might even lose the fight with his line burst.

Ok and soon after that, we realise that we do not have torch light. So we need to set off early and find a spot which have street light. Site after site, cast after cast. Night started to cast over the sky. Alright, lets go back. While Toh went back to the day site to fish knowing that high tide is coming soon.

That area has many bite and Toh managed to catch a catfish around the weight of 500g. Not a bad day after all and he pack up and leave.

Afternoon fishing

Finally an afternoon fishing with Kai and Toh. They went to keppel for an afternoon fishing. Toh start casting without hesitation. But soon after the cast, security guard came in and tell us to leave cause this is a private property. He tried to demoralise us by saying that there are no fishes in this area. So no choice, we had to packed up. So Toh start to reel in his line, but were stuck in the pier. So as usual, had to pull and pull.... Then came a women jogger who thought Toh got a big fish. So she kept looking at Toh pulling the line using his hand... But we already know the line were stuck. So when the line snapped, the women got a shocked and immediately continue jogging... So shameful.

So off we went to Seletar to recce... Hmm not a bad spot but the breakwater looks like we gonna had a hell time of stuck. So we started out using float again. Again, it was so boring then Toh stared out casting another rod using weight. Around 2 tries, no stuck at all. So Kai immediately use weight to fish. And the fishing goes on as usual.

Today is Kai day as he caught a sting ray around 1 kg. He told Toh to come and see what he caught. It was a small ray. So after photo taking, we try to unhook the ray, and set it off. But when unhooking, the ray started to give birth to another baby ray which is around the size of a human palm. We got a shocked and still trying to unhook the ray as fast as possible.

After unhooking, another problem occurs. How do we get the ray into the water? The rocks are slippery, So Toh got the ray on the plastic bag, and threw it hard into the sea. But the heavy wind blew it away onto the rocks. This time, Kai had no choice but to go down and save both the mother and child. Sorry Kai!!!

But soon after that, everything went ok with both ray released into the sea. Our Mission: We do not kill for the sake of fishing. We only kill for the sake of eating!!

Ok so our mission carries on until Kai bell rang hard this time. Kai pulled it out and sadly, the line stuck in the rock. So Kai had to go down again to save the fish. And this is where the funny part is.

Firstly, Kai slipper is slippery resistance like he is able to walk on the slippery rocks easily. Maybe he concentrate his chakra on his feets..... Ok so when Kai trying to remedy the line, The fish jumped out and landed on the rock, near the shore. Both Kai and Toh got a shocked. Toh threw a plastic bag to Kai so that Kai can wrap the fish around it. But the fish kept jumping and nearly hit the sea water around 10cm away. Kai had no choice but to hold the fish using the plastic bag. He doesn't know what to do. So Toh came down and help and they were able to subdue the monster. Ok.... what fish was that???? So Kai immediately did goggling on the spot and realise that this fish was called flathead. We knew that this fish was edible. Haha... ok let's bring it home. And that is the catch of the day.

Lastly, Damn the water skiier for coming so near to our fishing site. We can even hear what they were talking. This will scare the fishes away. But thanks to the coast gurad who chase them away.

Marina Bay

Because of float, Toh Kai and Kel went on to Marina Bay to test float fishing. As the breakwater are full of stone, using weight is not advisable. Therefore Kel is the first to use the float. Ok the cast is far and looks ok. So we proceed on using the float. But we had to concentrate on the line which still might get stuck on the stone.

The journey to the breakwater is rough. small pebble or stone spoil the suspension of Toh trolley. Damn it and the worst thing is the float stuck in the breakwater and the line snapped. Still can see the float and there are light indicator on the float. As the wave and wind current is strong, We had to spread ourselves out around 100m between.

kinda of boring. looking at the float movin, no one to talk to, reel in after awhile. therefore we decided to change place as it was too boring. Ok so we went to East coast 6 pipe. This is where Toh realise his trolley is spoiled. The stupid suspension sound irritates not only me but everyone on the jetty. So shameful.

Again, no catch.... we call it a day.
