Fishing advices from the 'old timer'.

We were keep asking around about the fish called 'Siong' by the locals.The chinese call 'si hong',some call it song hu.But what we are sure,it's a kind of 'carp' fish.Their diet is mostly on water grass and algae.But in the wild,we never know.
Nobody really sure what bait can you use to lure this fish.But this 'old timer' from a fishing shop told us,you cannot catch this fish by fishing!It won't take any bait.The only way you can get it is by shooting gun that people use to shoot wild boar!Even fishing net will break,he experienced it once.
But,we didn't give up.So,what we did,we made a grass juice,with blender.And mix it with flour and fish pellet.Well,the theory is,this fish eat grass.So the smell of the clorophil from the grass will attrack it.So,officially,we created a new kind of bait,after our first creation 'The Banana'.Now the 'Grass Mix'.The only different is,'The Banana' caught a lot of fish,and this 'Grass Mix'.....none so far.Ermmmm.....

This picture got nothing to do with the topic.Its taken in Sabah by a friend.
