NSLK TOMAN... Finally =P

So glad I can make it out for fishing today. Went over to my usual haunt and saw Banhock bro chasing the Giant Snakeheads. Seems like he's been here for an hour practicing his usual top water rig but no takers yet. Quickly set up my 2 rods and join in the fun. I thought my Peacock Basses are around seeing the commotion on the waters but something feels different this time. Hur hur... After a series of no takes on top water, I was left alone to ponder what lure to crack the Toman code here... Reach out for my long time sleeper, a big red diving minnow.

Cast, dive, retrieve yet no takes and was about to give up when FISH ON!!! HOOK SET!!! Woohoo! Strike a couple more times to make sure and was in for a nice fight. Manage to reel in a few notches while the fish is still blur blur but already, my Shimano telescopic rod cannot control the fish and my usually quiet reel screamed like crazy when it decided to dive to the weeds and hug there for a few minutes. I carefully tug and reel carefully while checking my line and drag. 'WTF surely gone case liao' keep repeating in my mind! LOL Finally huge ball of weeds come out and behind it, SWEE LAH FISH STILL THERE!!! 


Finally, my trophy fish this year was caught and by the slightest hookset luck! Measured 60cm and 9lb, it was a 'watermelon' beauty with bright silverish-green markings! I was so pleased my hard work had paid off, especially  since the Tomans here was taught by Master Banhock himself! LOL


Fish is released back and thanks Uncle for photo taking but u aim the camera very bad leh. LOL After the 'gift' from the Water Dragon, big rain came and I pack my belongings and was wowed by the brute force of these Giant Snakeheads, my sturdy hook twisted in a bad shape and I'm sure if I am not careful then I would had lost this biggie!!! Gonna buy a big clear measuring tape liao! LOL Cya Fishos! ^^
