2012-01-13T14:50:00.000+08:00

Before i start with my catch report i have to say this..... Taxi fare are blooding EX OUCH!nowadays.... hahaha

Few months back Nigel the baktao invited me for this changi offshore trip thingy, i was first a bit worry and tired of changi areas but after some consideration i decided to give it a go. Take it as a relax trip try not to put much hope lol

Few days before the trip Nigel told me that the boatman from pekan will be joining us for the trip i was like "huh.... WTH are you serious"

Yup No joke!

His in singapore that week not just to join us for changi, his here more for the southern island jigging. He has free time so i guess someone asked him along for the changi trip.

Boss waiting.....

Weather and catch was not good that day, i got a big fat egg home for my mum hmmmm anyway its notmal lol as i dont bring fish home that offen even if its a good trip.

Hinomiya twin propeller from Bali

2011-12-26T19:22:00.001+08:00

Aylwin bought for me this Hinomiya twin propeller bait from Bali on his recent trip, wondering will there be a change for me to use it lol.

After a long break from shore luring this morning we went to try our luck but yet another up sad trip. Ibr injured his ankle and the fishing was bad.
Only catch was just a small toman by mondo.

Looking at this I guess we are gonna stop shore fishing real soon.

GUSA SW 79XF 12 - 25lbs, 7"9 spinning

2011-12-21T17:28:00.010+08:00

Adding a new rod to my collection

Model : GUSA SW 79XF 12 - 25lbs, 7"9, Spinning
Components: Fuji guides and reel seat
Sports handle seperated by a screw on nut. Bought it from Nigel who almost didn't use it at all. He only used it once for casting some poppers.

Probably near mint condition. Guides are in mint condition. Almost no scratches on blank. but there are some sticky stuff on it need to remove it myself arh....lol

Great for medium light popping at Rompin, Pekan or even shore casting. Toman popping may also be a great idea.

Just a rod that i'm looking for Nigel somehow help me save $260 as i'm planning to get another rod which cost $450 :x

Nigel i copy your post hahaha and edited it a bit hahaha.
Oh ya and pics hahaha dont shoot me k

Local madai cum bottom trip

2011-12-17T11:15:00.001+08:00

This was from 1 of our trip few weeks back on a local boat, got the contact from a friend that has been fishing with the boat for many trips. The boarding place was not hard to find but a bit ulu.

Total 9 of us on this trip mixture of baiters and madai-er? lol

The Boat could take upto 10 pax max,heard from some customer from my work that there was once they went 11 the boatman dont want to set off lol. Welll thats the rules....

After having our breakfast and met up with the others i gave the boatman a call to ask him where and how to get to his boat. We had to walk a short distance of grass field but i can tell you its hell of a walk lol all of us been rape by the mosquito.

Ok.... The 9 of us is gonna take this boat out to fish!

Nah..... Just joking

We need to use the small boat to reach the bigger boat.

This was also a trip that ibr wanted to bring his dad along to fish, it has been quite sometime since his dad last fished. His dad must be very happy as he hitted quite a bit of good size fishes.

Some of the equipment we used for this trip

Stella 20000 with JM 3kings

Abu salty stage VS 1 with Palms BAY SALVOR 5ft.9inc.　1pc.　Lure Wt. 80-200g　PE0.8-2＃Power3　Rod.Wt.149g

Daiwa RYOGA PE 2020 with poseidon

This boat is always on the moves did not anchor at a single spot, which is good for madai jigging. In the morning almost everyone tried bouncing madai,only ibrs dad and 2 other kakis were baiting.

First fish on madai of the day, jamie can't even feel there is a fish at the end of the line.

A small Spanish Flag Snapper for me on the JM 100G madai

That was the catches in the morning for madai as the rest of them all change from madai to baiting only me and jamie die heart madai jigging till the end of the trip.

Ibr's dad hitted a good size parrot fish with a live prawn during the first drop if i dont remember wrongly.

Before coming for this trip i heard a few feedbacks from some other friends that this boatman is very lazy and sleeps a lot during night fishing. On this trip his quite hard working in moving spots to spots. When reached a new location if non of us hit any fish he will start the engines and move to another spot. Btw he don't talk much the whole trip i only manage to talk to him like less than 10 times lol.

Double hookups

After a good nap jarrett check is there any fish in the box hahaha

On this trip aylwin trying out a new stuff call tennya hmmm basically its a improve Ver of the hong kong hook hahaha but the result of the tennya was not bad Yo....I guess soon this tennya thingy will be the new game for local anglers

At about 3pm plus i had a hard take on my madai haha finally my hard work paid off { I thought} The pull were strong estimated it could be a 4-5kg fish, i pumped it up about mid water then out of sudden i loss the fish! I turn and told my frineds about it, you know what? at that split sec the fish came back for my madai the 2nd time. But WTH after a few pump i lost the fish AGAIN......

Well at least i learnt something about madai from this trip hahaha

Total catch of the day
We will try to arrange another trip with him next year :)

Less NETS more FISH

2011-12-07T00:27:00.004+08:00

Found this on the net many years back, it says less nets more fish. Somehow i had to agree on that one way or another. Recently more FTW the thai,banggala,china etc...came to my shop and asking do we sell nets, the first thing in my mind was WTH netters again. Anyway lucky my boss don't sell nets hahaha . I hope one day there is a way to control them from putting nets everywhere in our home.

WAKE up garman! wake up!

PE line numbering by NeCRoPLaSTiC

2011-11-30T10:52:00.001+08:00

http://blacksheephilia.blogspot.com/2009/01/pe-line-numbering.html

We often see this on PE line packaging and on some rods and reels, e.g. PE 1~3, PE 3~6 (rods) or PE 1/200m, PE 2.5/200m , PE 5/300m (reels).... and so on.
So, what it mean?

Also, we may see these numbering on mono line packaging too. e.g. No. 2, No. 7 etc... On reels, No. 2/ 127m, No.3/110, No. 5/120m.... etc...
What it mean?

Of cause, many of you know.
But there are a handful of fellow anglers out there may still get very much mixed up by these numbering.

The table below will explain the relationship of PE number to its thickness and strength.

PE No..mm
0.6...0.128
0.8...0.148
1.0...0.165
1.2...0.185
1.5...0.205
1.7...0.218
2.0...0.235
2.5...0.260
3.0...0.285
3.5...0.310
4.0...0.330
5.0...0.370
6.0...0.405
7.0...0.435
8.0...0.470
10.0...0.520
12.0...0.570
14.0...0.620
16.0...0.660
18.0...0.700
20.0...0.740
22.0...0.780
24.0...0.810
28.0...0.870

This form of measurement is a very accurate and standardized form and is especially used in relation to Japanese reels. The normal line thickness to line poundage would be 10lbs/PE or easily said, PE number X 10lbs; PE 5 = 50lbs. However, with the technological advancements nowadays, manufacturers have been able to produce thinner, stronger lines.

As for Mono numbering, similar to the PE's, indicate its standard diameter/thickness.

I do not have the table, but on the whole, every number approximately equal to 4Lbs.
As such, No1 about 4Lbs, No. 2 about 8Lbs, No. 2.5 about 10Lbs, No. 10 about 40Lbs and so on...

The rated strength of the mono varies a little among different manufacturers and brands. But basing on every 1 number equal to 4 Lbs is very safe.

On that day aylwin,mark and jarrett hitted the most fish, me and jamie was not that lucky both of use only landed 1 queen each.

Flooding the queen fish photos of them......

what ever jig you drop they go for it as long as its fast! So a HG reel is the best choice.
