Nite Double Kill @ New Spot

Dun understand why lately had trouble sleeping so i kept giving excuse to myself for getting myself up early for my morning fishing. Must be the hot season i guess, very sunny and dry resulting in a recurring cough. Anyway, manage to pull myself up today and went for my usual haunts to look for my beauties. And what a shock i had when i reached the place. The usual netting over the canal is open and tied to the banks. So as to facilitate the cleaning of the waters i guess. The waters felt more rapid than usual and the thought of my beloved Peacocks were washed away etched deeply in my mind.

But alas i got to get my priorities right this late morning. I need to try out my modified soft plastics jig for the Tomans today. Hopes are high this slightly overcast day. Some young Fishos were already testing the waters and i can't afford to wait. Casting the 1/4 Oz rig is pretty solid and i manage to hit the other banks and so distance is assured. Flourishing hydrillas were a problem so I'm testing my timing on the crank not to hit them and it turn out well. Soon i nearly got a hit on a Green-Headed Mama!!! She chased my lure to the bank but didn't attack it, instead and amusingly enough she went below my rig and turn her body downwards so that her mouth opened slightly from below. Hopes rocketed sky high and suddenly crashed to the ground as she shut her jaws tight, the rig crashed onto her and she dashed away in a flurry. Left stumped i bid this haunt goodbye. Maybe Next time... :(

Night time and with crashed hopes i decided to visit this fishing spot near my workplace in Woodlands. Amazingly, haven't given this spot some tests yet for over a year even though it's so near. Haha, and it turned out to be more productive than LSR Jetty. Met a couple of friendly Fishos this cool night. And they were on the prowl for Catfish. ^^ Got some pointers in and decided to use my DIY light jig for some testing.

My very FIRST, Jaguar Ciclid a.k.a Guapote Tigre. ^^

Boy, this Jaguar fight hard!!! Though its slightly bigger than my palm, it reminds me of the 1/2 Pounder Peacock caught in Feb! Some darting actions were imparted and since i worried that it might dive into the rocks i just crank in hard and pulled in out fast. No problem with my tackle! LOL

Hook set No. 2! Bait sized Nile Tilapia ^^

Luring close into my 2 hours session. Hit this bait sized Nile Tilapia. Not bad for tonite's expedition. Kekeke. Gonna love this spot!!! Will be my new testing ground for ultra light jigs and lures. Thanks to the Fishos for the company and congrats on them for catching 2 beautiful Catfish and i'm so glad they're CNR Fishos like me too!!! ^^

Late Nite @ Punggol Park

Been scouting Punggol Park for quite a while. Heard from the Fishos there can get Legendary Patins a.k.a Silver Catfish over 30Lb!!! Yeah, though i haven't really seen such biggies caught with my own eyes. Catch reports of such were available on the net and my hopes are high high this lovely nite. Brought 2 rods this time ard. One Medium-Heavy Action Mitchel Rod with float & bait combo. The other one is for some luring and light jigging on my DIY rigs.

Saw quite a few Fishos already set up their rods on the stone parapet. And their rods were quite long and heavy duty. ^^ Anyway my baits for the nite were bread and i squished them into a ball on my float rig. Hours quickly passed and still no hook set on my rig. Soon Fishos left. Even baiters with squid or prawn meat didn't caught anything. Seems like Punggol Park this nite is not productive. Well since my hooks were not getting any stuffs, my line did caught some other creatures. LOLOLOL

This tiny bat tangled on my line. So CUTE!!! Ahjoojoo baby ^^

Tried to escape after i freed. Noisy fella 'clak clak clak' all the way...
WTF! 50 cent Milkfish fry also kenna hook by my braided line!!! @#$%

And so those huge patins, siakaps, featherbacks and other biggies seems to be on vacation! Or already caught up. Haiz... Note to new lurers: sunken nets everywhere so any bottom banging lures will get hang up. I learnt the hard way. So my next lesson in fishing, time for some luring with ARTIFICIAL BAITS!!! ^^

What Tarot Card are You?

You are The Emperor

Stability, power, protection, realization; a great person.

The Emperor is the great authority figure of the Tarot, so it represents
fathers, father-figures and employers. There is a lot of aggression and violence
too.

The Emperor naturally follows the Empress. Like an infant, he is filled with enthuiasm, energy, aggression. He is direct, guileless and all too often irresistible. Unfortunately, like a baby he can also be a tyrant. Impatient, demanding, controlling. In the best of circumstances, he signifies the leader that everyone wants to follow, sitting on a throne that indicates the solid foundation of an Empire he created, loves and rules with intelligence and enthusiasm. But that throne can also be a trap, a responsibility that has the Emperor feeling restless, bored and discontent.
