Plastic bag+scissor method is the best and safest. I got butter fingers, alway injured the FS with just using bare hands. I have a childhood friend, Ah Eng. Pro Sia. Only using bare hands. He would peel the leaves steadily to access the size and sex of the FS. The FS will still inside the leaves. His captured FS were always big and good fighters.
So so good to see you sharing your latest FS hunt & your FS experience. The fight of the two FSs were good and evenly matched. Your FS video was really refreshing especially a drought of FS videos in the forum.
I showed some Thais this website. They told me that they have never caught spiders. They have not seen TBha before though they could see that it is a kind of spiders.
Is it documented somewhere when do people starting catching TBha? I am born in 1965. I remembered that when I was in kindergarten (ealry 1970s), my neighbours were already catching spiders. So, spider catching would have been a hobby in the 1960s? How's about 1950s or earlier?
Hi bro utility47,
I have heard of old folks in their 80s talking about "Pao fu" which is FS. This would bring FS as a hobby to the 1920/30s.
Few days ago went to a new FS hunting area near Ampang Hilir, just beside Jalan Pengawai. Theres several abandoned big empty banglo land with nice green leaves potential for FS. Its a big area lotsa yam leaves and looks very tempting... so give it a try hunt for FS
[attachmentid=3736020] [attachmentid=3736021] FS fight videos. Fierce type with strong bites
Hi bro Viper, the FS fight was indeed fierce. The weaker FS was brave initially but sensing that it cannot win, it really escaped and jumped down onto the floor.
I saw that there are Yam leaves in your photo. Any good sized FS there? I was wandering that the Yam leaves are so big, how does a good FS hunter catch FSs on these huge leaves?
It's great to see you back in action, when are you and the gang going for FS hunts so to prepare for the coming challenge. I would like to join in the FS hunts.
Your presence is going to be greatly missed in this FS forum.
I would like to thank you for the tremendous contributions and the selfless efforts posting countless of FS videos to allow members to feast upon.
Each of your video tells a heartfelt story: -Strategies from each of the FS hunter, carefully placing important sequences of his FSs to fight which maximised his chance of crowning the FS champion. - Hilarious laughters and your exciting commentaries making each FS fight a unique fight. - Expected and unexpected twists of events leading to the grand finale. - No forgetting the secret trainings that FSs underwent beforehand so that they are to be in tip top conditions both physically, mentally and be ready for the final showdown.
The most important part of each your story is the exhibition of friendships that fostered and strengthened between FS hunters. The limitless and endless FS passions shown from each of your video is priceless!
Any FS, not matter how big, how powerful, still needs to follow the laws of Nature, has to step down eventually after a few months and give way to the next generaton of younger FSs.
Friendships remained and will bring us through years until the very last breath of our lives.
Thanks for the FS offers, I think I just soap in the FS hunts. Alas! My children's school holidays are ending soon, making available time for FS hunts more difficult.
Great to hear from you. 400~600 FS is the biggest catch that I have heard in my lifetime! You all must be really spoilt for choices. Are most of them T.tbha?
Looking forward to see their pictures and their fights.
Been a while since we have FS fights in the forum. The last one was posted by bro Ura. Hope to hear from fellow bros like bro Ricky, bro Utility, etc..
The last encounter were the massive 'import' of HK Tbha. I wander how they fare in SG.
Great to hear from you. Has been quiet lately. You are damn right. Randy's power of written language has gartnered a group of faithful readers. Ricky's display of his vast FSs made its audience green in envy. I will always remember Rudy's FS 1-piece. There was also bro Krauser's interesting commentaries which was captivating. Not to mention bro Viper's in depth of FS is amazing.
