Flash Back... Beginning Fishing...

"Heya Fishos, you must be wondering when did i started to hook on fishing. To tell you the truth, my very first time fishing was years back. Me and my best friend Fuliang was wondering if we could catch big fishes as a hobby. We were really noob then, went to Beach Road and i think i bought a medium-heavy rod and he bought a super expensive light-medium rod. Close to 1k then, the Team Daiwa Tornado Rod!!! We spooled in mono lines and bought some lures and set out to catch at LPR at nite.

Of course with nobody to teach us, the result was horrible. Reel and rod dropped into the pond, fast retrieve without pause, etc. LOL! In the end, went to Bedok Jetty tried our luck. I managed to hook 2 Beltfish A.K.A Todaks that nite with spoon! But super tired throwing lures on the med-heavy rod leh. Good fun that day but fren quitted and gave me his super expensive rod to me and i stored it till one day last year.

Basically wanted a cheap and good way to cut down my weight. Gonna have my wedding photoshoot next year so don't wanna be all chubby. Pretty fat that time loh. LOL! Went LPR one day and tried a lure and must be very lucky cos Peacock Bass just went for it after my lure was cast into the waters. And then my old mono went beehoon. Finally took my solution to Team 7 Pro Tackle at Yishun to help out.

The two nice young Sam and Desmond really took time to explain to me all about lure fishing. Bought some beginner reel set and lures, spooled in some new mono and off i go Toman hunting. LOL! In the end i did landed one tiny Toman! And i decided to put this hobby in firm resolution.

So that's how the poison started and i loved every minute of it! Hopefully this new passion of mine won't stop so abruptly like last time. I'm gonna learn and hone my skill so next time, when my fren came around. I could teach him how to fish and hopefully, get him hooked!!! LOL!"
