I CHEATED!! ... Haha!!

Wednesday, 12 May 2010 0 comments

Assalamualaikum and G'day! Since we found out that I'm going to be a daddy again, I decided to cut down my fishing activity so that I could comfort and pamper my wife. Hehe ... Anyways, last weekend on the 8th of May happens to be Tyco's (Duo Fishing) bday and fishing the whole day was what he wanted on his big day. We caught 3 Estuary Cods, a juvenile Barracuda, a 400g Mangrove Jack, a 600g John's Snapper and a 1kg Stingray. Even though TK didn't get what he wanted (Barramundi) he was happy enough to have caught 2 fish. As for me, it was like when I first started fishing again using live prawns as bait (Cheat mode). I must admit, it was fun but that won't stop me from casting. And to TK or Dnok, Happy Birthday cuzz.

2Gs Fishing

Monday, 12 April 2010 0 comments

Assalamualaikum and G'day! Tyco (Duo Fishing), Rois (our paddle boy) and I went to 2Gs and caught 8 fish in total. We bought live prawns yesterday but some of it were dead by the time we got to the spot. I tried to use live bait and did it twice but was not successful. So I went casting instead and got myself a Barracuda, and 2 juvenile Jacks, using the same lure I used yesterday. When I got the first strike, I thought it was a Barramundi but as I reeled it in, it was a 400g Barracuda. Although it wasn't that big, it was strong enough to give a nasty fight. And the rest, I caught juvenile Jacks and missed around 4 times. Tyco however, caught 4 fish (2 MJs and 2 John's Snappers), two of 'em using live prawns and the other two by casting. Rois managed to catch a Jack using dead prawns and it was the 2nd biggest Jack compared to Tyco's 300g. After fishing, we went to my mom's and had soto for dinner. Alhamdulillah ...
