This trip has been planned for almost a year.Couple of friends can't make it at the the last minutes before the trip,but after all,5 of us finally made it.
The stories of giant Malaysian mahseer or kelah/empurau and sebarau/semah,adong,juak and ikan labang made the trip is the one that we really looking forward to.
We started the journey around 10 at night of March 15th.Ten hours drive from Kuching to Bintulu,and another three hours to Bakun doesn't feel that long.
And another 3 hours boat ride from the dam to the upper river of Murum.We reached Nanga Temaju just after the sun set and in the dark,we can't find a camp site.No land visible,since water has flooded everything.The flooded trees blocked the way to the land.So we spent the first night on the boat.
Supper cum breakfast around 1 am at Jelukung.
Fruit stall along the road up to Bakun.
Deforestation....
Some forest still survive,for the moment...
Oil palm plantation taking place.
Justin and his mega lense.
Red..
and White....
and Red...
and Black.
tiny falls..
The tower for the high voltage cable under construction..
Iron trees introduced to Bakun...
and concrete waterfalls too...
and new ridge of mountain connecting mountains and stops the mighty Rejang river.
and Rejang become a small stream...
but an ocean created above it...
about 3 times the size of Singapore...
drowned many trees and monkeys...
and transformed this tribe into sea gypsy...
their houses has no stairs and pillars anymore...
the view behind the new mountain...
the new ocean...
and the trigger happy fisherman...
and the curious...
the sun goes down,but we are still on the way up..
the night on the boat.
take a break..
whats for dinner?
Temaju Falls..the last day of its existence.
finding a way up...
finding the fish...
on the rock..
netcasting...
coffee time..
nap time...
at least..catch a laughter
fierce power of nature...
looking forward for strategy...
flirting....
frowning...
what ever weapon you can have in your hand...
the tourists....
and the optimist...
the newfoundland...
local delicacy...
the cavemen...
the buffet..
the firework.....
for export...
for protection...
or take cover...
the port...
and the fort....
can you see land?
the drown....
and the quest...
Temaju Falls,the next morning..more powerful and more fierce..
underwater sculptures...
pirates bay...
log jam...
this is life...
the God dam...
'this is my stadium'....
go green...
and safe from the land tax...
and keep extending...
out of place?
...its time to go home now...
Just in case you notice there's no picture with the catch here,please don't bother to ask for it.
It was raining heavily every night for the whole trip and nights before that.Water is just too murky.Artificial lure doesn't work.And only catfish take the bait.
Anyway...it was a great trip..and great escape too.
Fantastic photographs!!! Keep em coming I am following ;)
