Congrats bro VW..
what casting rod did you buy?

my cherrywood is 4-10lbs lar...
my fenwick is 8-20lbs - RM200+ at RHA

fenwick HMX and Berkeley Cherrywood different material and class ler..
like comparing a Mustang and a Honda.. same purpose different material and cost...

I bought the fenwick cos i feel its more "tahan abuse" cos got Fuji SIC guides.. and probably can last longer...
if i were to use my cherrywood light setup, i think will patah when fighting the teenage momma toman... cos I'm not skilled enough to handle a light setup vs big mommas....

vw, remember to get some lures as well..
actually i feel the lures are the ones that empty our pockets the fastest compared to reel and rods..

get mid/shallow divers as well lar..
very useful wan... (poison)

did you get double hooks to reduces chances of snags?

hahaha... dun buy so many first..
save $$ fishing fair coming lar!!
maybe that time i also buy a STX
kekeke

bro klmt, true also lar what you said..
usually when i go paypond, or tasik prima i always ask myself, "Hmm... wonder what fish i can get today" result kosong...

that day went seremban, i told myself "Today is to test the Zillion and Mono lines with BCs.. just dun snag enuf..." that's why the fish i caught all "accidentally" wan.. i didn't even strike and caught a fish... summore i was wondering how come my rod bending over like that..
hahaha

so bro VW, can tell yourself, I want to test my STX and enjoy scenery only.. hehehe
you can try the Lemax Red Sword... not a bad rod... looks like AG Fantasista..

read some bad news in MFN...
the Angling Fair scheduled in May has been cancelled...
I hope its not true...

sifu rory only mentioned about going for sailfish on Oct mar...
so plenty of time more.. to buy and strike lottery..

Count me in...
bro naughty, klmt?

take care and good luck!!

Aiyak like that ar...
then I'll skip this trip lar..
my car not fit to go offroad lar...

So i guess i'll go somewhere else to fish...
you guys enjoy lar...

wah lau.. toman 1metre..
too bad i wasn't there to witness it..

bro VW, AG trip kosong kar?

logically, if you use keli, its gonna weigh more than 1oz,
so chances your rod tip can break, and your BC gets a massive ultra CBH...
unless your BC is designed to cast heavy lures... something like the Daiwa Big Bait Special...

hahaha. i don't mind being a noob..
as long as i get to fish, with the fun and adventurous gang, and get to land biggies..

bro VW, you can try Duel Zombi as well..
I landed my last toman of that day using it..
kekeke

what's for coming sunday??
damn. my hands itchy cos no fishing lar...

you lar...
hahaha

i might wanna do bottom fishing at Bangi as well..
bait recommendations anyone??

I've got a client to see at 12pm, else, I'd join you if its a half-day session..
good luck!!

where's rantau?
got off-road or not?
if got, then I can't follow again..

ohh.. sorry lar..
i dunno the name of the place..
that's why if you bring me to a 'secret lubuk' your secret will be safe, as I won't know where or how to get back to it...

Rantau will be good...
but bring lots of water!! no shades..
