Extravaganza morning !

It's been a while since we updated this blog...it's not because we don't have any catch lately,but because we are so busy reeling up so many catches... :)
...and these are the latest ones from the trip this morning...

Meet Prince Matan..

Meet Pakcik Dris

Meet the Superstars..

Meet the Parents.... ( I know)

In total, it was nine fishes...four Spanish Mackerels,two Barracudas, two Groupers and one Bill fish..
For eight hours of fishing,its One of the best trips...
See you on the top of the coral...

Barracuda and coral trout..

The sea is friendly again...the season is back...load up the gears and head to the islands..

Back to the island...

The sea is super calm!..

Mount Santubong is there as always..

The water is super clear...

A diving boat..a diving girl is not something you want to hook on..literally

Try some poppings..

and trolling..

The result is pretty fine...

This is how you welcome a fish on board..

closer shot..

the razor sharp teeth join in the club too..

Look at the size of the eye!..

The storm is coming in..it's time to go home..

Fly fishing trolling

Couple of days ago,we decided to try some fly fishing around two islands not far from Kuching.We also did some trolling and some popping.The weather was perfect,the water was almost like glass,no wave,especially the part of the sea that get covered from the wind by the islands.But the water underneath was not really good,there was no current,so the fish were not so active.And the big downside,it was  full moon!

The ever happy anglers

The ever happy boat boys..

Loco's new toy

Trying new technique,fly trolling..

The ever proud angler..

This part of the island was a bit choppy.

This part was a lot calmer..

Super calm sea.

The beach where the turtles land and lay eggs.

Trying some fly fishing..

Trying some popping..

One barracuda jumped out of the water but missed the popper..

This poor bill fish just managed to get his head landed on the boat..the other parts of its body were taken by a big barracuda.

Not many action on this trip..the closest one was a big barracuda.It was almost landed but it managed to escape the hook when we were trying to hook it up to the boat...
Anyway...its always a good trip.

Island trolling...some months ago.

Barracuda and spanish mackerel.

Long long kamalong..

Short hair Maton..

Prize catch..

Gila...!!!!
