Babailiu at Sea

Action speaks louder than words (actually i'm not in the mood of writing essay )

Nice cobia..

Fish kiss...

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...

GT ...hungry and angry !!!

Big fish are always there...somewhere...sometime... 

They seem to be more hungry and angry in the morning... 

And we were meant to be there to serve them breakfast...

Red and yellow Rapala Marlboro did it again..

Approved by Matan !

It turned darker on land...


There were other fishes,just that they are not Hollywood materials...so they don't make it to the screen near you!

Alien fish !

Hello again...it's been a while...the storm has gone,at least for a short season...and we are back to the sea...

Revisited the west tip of Borneo again...

Did some trolling,jigging and lure drifting, ( of course bottom..ermm)....

I think this is the most hardworking sea fishing we ever did...totally non stop for almost 24 hours with super short naps in between when changing spots...

Perfect weather,calm surface...just a little bit strong underwater current....but not so much big actions...

Trolling around the islands

Calm water..

Picture perfect..

Reunion..

Looking forward..

Fly fishing in a pail..

Tie the aggressive bestard...

As heavy/light as me..

Reinforcement needed..

The more the merrier...

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..

Hot sunny day...

After a couple of days we came back from the cold and dry weather of Paris for the Mondial du Tatouage, we were out fishing in the hot and humid weather of Borneo...trekking through the jungle and bush(also palm oil plantation) ,walking through the cooling and refreshing upper river with sparkling clear water for most part of it...it was fun and full with hope,although it was tiring and drenched us with sweat..but the result was great!

Decent size jungle perch..

The fight never disappoint you..

Spoon is the weapon..

Single stripe..

Till the last minute..

Smoke on the water...

When the rain has stopped...

He ran fast...

Baby adong..

Mama adong

The boy and his pose

See you next time

Grow bigger,fight better..
