Loco is back to town and brought with him 2 fly fishing sets from Paris.
This method of fishing is still an alien in Kuching...and this evening we tried it at a touristic beach with a lot of people having picnic at the beach and they had something new to watch beside the sunset,wave and the hornbill sculpture.
The tide was a little bit high.. |
Perfect time of the day for fishing.. |
but not the right time of the month.. |
It's full moon !!!... |
But its OK,as long as you can practice.. |
with big space behind you.. |
and big sea in front of you.. |
the sky was a little bit hazy.. |
the sun was hiding... |
getting better and better... |
cast after cast.. |
the haze took away the beautiful sunset... |
fly on the water |
more line out.. |
tango in the water.. |
the hornbill that never fly... |
the beach with lovers on Saturday evening... |
new French specialty,the fly.. |
'Petite problem, Loco?' |
Well..there were some small fish chasing the fly but no hook up...
Till next time..tight line..or should I say,bend it like Beckham?!!!
They say that practice makes perfect. It takes time, but you'll be a pro in no time.

It is..there is a picture of a fish caught on fly in the next post.
DeleteI used to fly fishing at many rivers in Kapit division since 2008... Wild fishes like semah, nyenyuar, tengadak, piat,penyau, enseluai,panyut,antu balang,boing,banta, palau, baung lilin,adong,kaloi were crazy to this flies, mostly if the fly imitated an insect from their nature livelihood.For an example: grasshopper(buntak ko kitai iban). And yes it is still an alien in Sarawak generally.But the alien addiction will drive u to another new way of fishing once u learn the line casting and most important tying the flies by yourself.Akai... syok amat asai ka ngai bebini..
