Met Joel at clementi and off we set off for our fishing trip.

When we reach our spot, the tide is already at it highest. Without any hesitation, we set up our tackles and started our waiting game.

I think my luck is really going down or I have forgotten how to fish. YA! I am a Zero-Fighter again!!

Sigh.

Anyway Joel manage to land 2 Smallies.

For the first fish, It was really a thrilling exp.

Joel was reeling up his fish, when it got sangkot in the rocks near to the water.
Well after some hesitation to went down due to the slippery rocks, we still proceed down.
Manage to make my way down and saw the fish stuck in the rocks.

There no way i can pull it up or get it out using a plier.

Fish mouth facing upwards


After i poke it down with a fishing rod, it went deeper down into the rocks!


In the end, I decided to use my hands and manage to get it out.

Took 'Urgent' leave and went to TMJ for some fishing.

It been a long time I went fishing alone. Took a cab and NB the cab driver dunno the way.

End up taxi fare near to 18 bucks!!

Anyway reach the pond, setup my tackle and went to the centre pump (socalled hot spot)

Waited for near to 45 mins, when I saw my float dip and came up again.

Needless to say, the fish has escape.

Rebait and wait again.....Bite rate was super low..except for one guy.

The guy in red easily got 20 over fishes.

Well my 2nd bite came after 2 hr of waiting after my 1st bite.

I saw my float dip and sank into the water..

Heart pumping, grap my rod and slowly reel...

Suddenly my float came up again...LOST THE FISH AGAIN!!!!

Super demoralise...It was ard 1pm already..I still zero fighter.

Other anglers are also zero fighter..but dunno why the guy in red keep landing fishes.

Cont my waiting game..My float floating ard without dipping at all...

Very soon, it 3pm already.. I decided to go home once I finished my 100gm of prawns.

Rebait my very last prawn and cast it to my 'high risk high return' spot.

My stuff are all packed up already. In my mind, I have gave up.

Walked back to my rod..pick my rod up and suddenly I feel a tug!

Reel back slowly, den give a strong strike.

The KBL jump up beautifully high up into the air!

Have a quick fight with it before i landed it

Estimated ard 1 kg.

Released it immediately into the lake.

Was thinking of cont cos i got 2-3 hours more. But since i already packed up all my stuff, I went home....

I started out the day with my 9ft rod aiming for biggies and my 7ft rod aiming for small bait fishes.

Wind is super strong and it really affect our casting alot. But nevertheless, we cont with our fishing.

After 1-2 hr, i got a super small fish on my 7ft rod.



Wanted to use it as a bait. Rig it up and cast it with my 9ft rod.

However it drop into those small rocks during the cast. Wanted to get it back but was steal my the crabs immediately.

No more bites for me after that. But Qw mange to get 2 fishes.

One Catfish and one kuku fish. Not bad liao! Lol



After landing this 2 fishes. Bites rate is really getting slow.

Therefore we decided to dig for some sandworms. And guess what we got in the end?

Sarongs, hermit crab, found one kuku fish and many baby clay prawns.





But all this come with a price. Cuts, Cuts and more Cuts!
