Have always wanted to try out this pond since they opened but could not find the time. Finally, we were there on this wonderful Sunday.
Reached at ard 8.30am. Sign up as member, paid my fees and started FISHING!
Baits used for the day.
Live Tilapias(Small)
Breads
Bottle Tree Park - Fishing Paradise
I started off with the tilapias but there was no bites at all. Other anglers beside me were catching nothing too.
Chunxia getting bored
Soon it was 11am but still we did not managed to land any fish. The whole pond was pretty quiet with only one or two occasional hook ups.
Noticed one of the staffs fishing beside us landing a couple of fishes with bread. Decided to monkey see monkey do too.
At ard 11.10am, Cx went to rebait & casted out the bread. Within secs, the main line straightened and rod bend!!
Grabbed the rod, gave a strike and YES! Fish On! Passed the rod back to Cx to play.
After 2-3 mins of tug of war...
Est 700-800 grams Rohu
Thou it was not a biggie but still we were quite contended with our small catch. Morale rose and I proceed to rebait.
Casted out the bread and within 5 mins rod started to bend! Wow~
Set the hook and the fight was ON!
Took me 3-4 mins before this bugger decided to raise the white flag..
Est 1 kg plus Rohu
2 fishes within 20 mins! It definitely gave us a strong morale booster.
Waiting and waiting and......
At ard 11.30am, the staff beside us managed to hook onto another rohu. Passed the rod to CX and told us to fight the fish. Kudos to him!
Tug of war!
Cx managed to fight it to the side before the fish decided it was enough. Gave a last dash to safety and waved byebye to us.
Our lunch
We were hoping to land a few more fishes after lunch however it did not turned up the way we wanted.
There was no bites at all for us. Changed the bait to tilapia and changed to bread and changed back to tilapia but the fishes were just not opening their mouths at all.
Our neighbours were also signing up to be a member of the ZeroFighter club.
Soon 7 hours were up and while packing up the boss told us to continue. He told us to try another spot and even offered free bread for us. Wow, good customer service!
Went over to another spot and continue the waiting game.
Saw many splashes on the surface and registered a few bites but no hook up.
It was only until 4.45pm when I saw my rod nodding. Without any hesitation, grabbed my rod and gave a hard tug. Fish On!
My line was peeling out at a very fast rate when suddenly I felt nothing! OMG... dun tell me I lost the fish. I continue reeling in and felt the fish at the other end. It was swimming towards me!
Took me 5 mins before I managed to land it.
Est ard 2-3 kg Rohu!
Register another strong bite at ard 5.10pm but it managed to get away. It was definitely a biggie as my line was peeling out at a super fast rate. By the time I managed to pull out my rod and set the hook, it was already gone.
What a waste...
Managed to land one last Rohu to end the day at ard 5.30pm
Boss releasing the fish
Total catch of the day: 4 Rohu
Witnessed a redtail catfish landed while we were leaving.
