December Mangrove Jack Mission

 Yeees... its PhotoGrided... download & installed into my SNote. Cool apps.

 We thought Me & Amir caught a MJ, or a GT but it wasnt.. just a catfish, Utik. Later I caught Grouper and a crab. cDan belurih ketambak, small. All catch & released.

From after Asar to Isya, as Muslims we must not left our daily prayers. Seawater as air wudhu. As long as we are clean & the place is clean from najis, it should be Ok.

Some of our nice moments since we started this blog...

Anyway Mangrove Jack Mission was a failure. No one of us caught the fish this month... too bad. 

Nada Unggah, Utik basar pun ada thrill jua reeling in.

Well then we will see you again InsyaAllah.

Kawan Kawan Anglers back to old place...

Rasidi, Our Chef De Mission as our leader to sangkar Putih at Sunga Bunga. Main sponsor for the trip. Guess what he caught at his hand...

 DD the Queen of Jigging... caught many fishes this day... winner of the most fish caught. Ikan Gerongong...

Their first fishing trip to Sangkar putih Sungai Bunga...

Amir caught his first fish - Gumbir, caught using Yusuf's fishing rod etc.. Yusuf claim ownership of this category, so he won the best & heaviest fish caught this day. 

The Stik caught belais kalu by bottom fishing...

Afiq, caught a catfish.. utik.

later he caught a crab... so was Yusuf.

Afiq caught a mini Umpak at our old favorite fishing spot.

Amir caught more gerongong... by jigging.

Ikan pusu by jigging too. 

I caught a Mangrove Jack by casting live shrimp near the rock behind me... a wonderful fishing trip experience so far for all of us.

End of the day... brought this back. Almost 2kg only.

Scenery at angling sites: 

Last week Friday, at Kuala Tutong... no fish caught.

Last week Saturday at Tungku Beach. 

Last Monday at Serasa end beach. Also no fish caught.

 Just relaxing at my favorite spot...

9:5:4:3:2:2:0 IS NOT A TICKET NUMBER.

That is the number of fishes caught by Shahdan, Rasidi, Osman, Lynn, eWan, Amir and The Stik caught last Monday (First day Hijrah Holiday) at Deris Fish Farm at Pudak.

We organised a mini fishing tournament and given all the awards to one man only : SHAHDAN..! He caught the first & last fish, the biggest & heaviest fish, the most fish, the same type fish,  and the best fish caught that day. 

His Doctor said he got a stone in his body... maybe a fish sinker (batu kail ditalan nya sebagai Ajimat nya).

Congratulation Shahdan.

 His first fish, ikan Gulama.

 Ingat cerita Melayu comedy classic.... Macam siapa nah..?

 Amir dreaming of having his own fish farm.... keep on dreaming...

 Some of fishes caught: mostly catfish.

 Rasidi , Shahdan (mengigau pikir nya kan ke offshore derrick) & Amir.

eWan, Lynn, Hj Osman and The Stik. Thats the last time I wore my sunglasses, because it broke on that day.
The tournament cut short due to bad water and weather conditions. Kalau dipajal, sepikul Utik krg belurih. 

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.

2 CASTING LICENSES...!

Morning Me & Amir went out fishing near JPMC, casting using various lures.

Unsucessful here, even using ShadRap Hot Tiger SR7. 

Later, Me, Amir, HjRasidi with his brother-in-law went to Sungai Bunga. 

 Thats Mangrove Paradise Resort.

 Sungai Bunga Resettlement village.

 I Caught a lot of fish by jigging (menganjun). Here are ikan Geronggong.

 Amir caught some too.

 There is No Fish on the floor.. Mir..!

Check if there is some fish is calling....

 Lane Snapper & Grouper caught by Rasidi.

  

 Kirang-kirang & Pusu I caught by jigging.

 Rasidi caught 2 of this ikan Kitang.

 Finally, Amir caught his first casting license, a mini GT 200g by using Surecatch-Pince Minnow lure.

 His second one, a 1kg Barramundi using same lure...but his line cut by the fish gill slit. Anyway manage to get the fish. Total weight he caught was 1.2kg.

This man is the winner of caught the most big fish and the heaviest. Gross weight of 1.4kg he caught that day.

SEKALI.... BUNTAL LA.....

 Banyak kali mata kail di talan nya sudah...

 Ikan tu berAyun taim mengambar nya. Nampak basar tia pulang Umpak tu.

Ikan Pahat pahat, macam ikan Usus.

Utik, mata kail nyangkut di matanya...
