Rapala XRap Subwalk-8 missed 2-3 kg Barra @ Queen's Jetty.

Our friend, cool guy, GDen of Forbidden Anglers caught twice some twigs, broken a rod but missed the Barramundi. He never give up... 

Rapala lure works...(see Rapala site here)

I used Clankin' Rap CNR6 S.... same spot where Gden's Barramundi was i.e. beside the jetty, but unsuccessful.

Tips: I learn a lot of lure casting from watching an interesting, fun and educational video below. 

 

 Here is a video clip of Robson Green, fishing Barramundi in Australia. 

Here is my nephew, Afiq, after along time inactive of fishing, this day he caught a catfish & lost one huge crab.

Business as usual at Queen Elizabeth's Jetty, Monday 14Feb2011.

Rasidi & Cpian trying to untangle their line and hooks from each other. Paten & Inzul just take a look, after they both caught a puffer fish. 

Two Archer (Ikan Sumpit-sumpit) fish caught with crickets as baits. Crickets bought from a pet shop. 

Local people seldom caught & eat the fish, but some say that those who eat them will become strong, as told from old folk story about the legend of Awang Semaun who become super strong after ate them. 

I (The Stik) personally like to eat them, not to believe it make me strong, but like the taste of it. Its delicious, similar to Black Pomfret fish (Ikan Duai Hitam), but it has a hard pointy bones. So you need to be extra careful when pinching out the meat. 

Yusuf with his biggest catch so far. The First Day of 2011.
