Bad Day

Venue: Tmj
Weather: Hot but cloudy (Weird right)
Baits: Live Prawns
Date: 17th June

I guess to a angler, there are good days and bad days. Part and parcel of angler’s life.

Went down to tmj today and reg only 1 Bite!
Total fish at the end of the day = 1
And to be exact i got no hookup no fight no fish. Why?

Guess heaven is trying to be kind to me. My hook manage to hook onto a broken line which on the other end is a small kim..ard 500 grams..
So it jus a lucky catch…which is not counted.

Anyway i left before my time is up………………….
What a bad day…

Fishing Trip(Punggol) On 130608

Venue: Punggol
Time: 9.30pm - 3am
Rig: Apollo with sinker and floater
Baits: Live Prawns
Weather: Cooling

Went over to sheng siong at commonwealth to get 500 grams of live prawns and off we set off for punggol.

Reached at ard 9.30pm and started wetting the line at 10pm. Setup one rod on floater and rod with sinker.
One friendly malay fisho gave us some worms and he even mentioned he got 1kg of grouper making our morale rosed.

From 10pm to 12am i saw my float sank twice but pop out immediately.
Suspect that it could be that the float i using is too big and heavy thus spooked the fish. Twice the float sink and twice the live prawns become dead prawns.

Therefore immediately change to a smaller and lighter float. However there is no more bite…
At ard 1am, i decided to rebait. Took one live prawn and when i turn over and look at my float… IT GONE!

Asked my fren and he also couldnt see it. Without hesitation, i ran over to my rod which is quite a distance away from me.
But too bad, on the way my float reappear and i know…’fish gone’.

Immediately rebait and cast to the same area. Ard 2am, i notice my float is moving strangely. 2 secs later, it dipped into the water slightly. Quickly reel in the line and STRIKE!.

Not a big decent fish but at least something….
A toadfish aka kuku fish

When i tried to unhook it, it gave a ‘Wa wa wa’ sound..
As the hook is set quite deep, i cut away the line and released it.
3am, packed up and go home

Fishing Trip(Tmj) On 100608

Venue: Tmj
Time: 9am - 4.30pm
Baits: Live Prawns
Rig: Apollo on floater
Weather: Sometimes sunny sometimes cloudy.

Went down to tmj to revenge with a aim to break my highest record 5 kbl.

Reached, setup and the game starts…..


Got my first fish ard the centre pump at ard 940am. Float was sinking and moving..towards the right.
Reel in the line and whack! Fish done a beautiful somersault twice before it was landed.

2nd fish was landed ard 11am and 3rd fish ard 1pm. All the fishes did a few somersaults during the fight.

At ard 2pm..my float sink and started to move towards the right…Grabbed my rod and whack! Fish on!
The line is peeling out from my reel. First time i experience such a powerful fish at tmj. Heart was pumping and i start to tactfully fight the fish.
It did not jump out of the water like normal kims will do. It jus dash left and then right pulling my line out.
After 5 mins, manage to force the fish near the corner and that where i made a fateful mistake.
With the urge to faster land the monster, i tried to yank it out of the water and then "PIAK"!!!!!
The fish DROPPED back into the water.!!!!! Sigh! What a waste…

Total catch: Pathetic 3


Saw this kitten at TMJ. It was v skinny...
Too bad i got no food for it.
