QUOTE(HarryzSandhu @ Mar 13 2013, 01:29 PM) i dont have the address exactly .. but its very easy to get there ... exit the bukit tambun exit and take a left turn > all the way straight till you reach a T-junction > proceed on straight > take the first left turn > all the way straight till the end. pond is located at the end of the road ( Jalan Seri Tambun 1) . yup there are open everyday from 9am till midnight. Best catch rate timings based on my frequent visits there last year is morning session (around 11am) .. afternoon session (around 2pm).. evening session (after 7pm ..) Most of the time I would highly recommend play with a floater.. live floater preferably by live float u mean this?Entrance fee : RM22 Bait (Dedak) 1 bucket : RM10 Bom spring : RM3 Have fun and enjoy ! |

QUOTE(HarryzSandhu @ Mar 13 2013, 11:07 PM) Kolam Mekong Bukit Tambun. nice info, thx. how long is the leader from hook to the float bro?oppss... sorry bro mistake..what I meant was proceed on straight after the toll exit till you reach a T-junction and then take a left turn. its rm22 per entry from 9am - 12 midnight. yup.. **when you reach the pond, it will be adjacent to a flyover running on its right .. look below the flyover there is a small road that will lead you to another pond .. you can try there as well . both ponds are managed by different owners but the main entrance is the same. and what is the purpose of the running float? it will most likely end up at the nearer end to us only rite? how can it move when there's the bait hanging and acting as weight? even when fish pull it doesnt serve any purpose. sorry for my lack of knowledge on float |

hi guys, i was there in kepong tackle, then went to digital, bought emily a new setup, and was looking for a rod myself. budget around RM300 so i get to look at some of the shimanos, too bad cant find any as i dont like brown color cork and most shimano rods come with it, also of course my budget restricted my choices. then i thought about u guys doing the custom rod, my question is: if a shimano rod cost RM300++, which is around the same budget as u guys' custom made rod, why custom made? what are the advantages of a custom rod, other than design, length, rod strength, which can be easily found? also, if 2 rods using the same fuji guide, fuji real seat, same material for the blank, and if the price difference is quite a bit, why so? izzit simply only bcuz of the brand? what else is there in a rod that i should know? can anyone enlighten me?

QUOTE(acheong7 @ Mar 23 2013, 05:47 PM) you basically get to decide on every aspect of the rod, from start to finish, according to your whims and fancies ... within reason thx bro for the explanation, i think i get it, sometimes mass produced rods i like 90% of it, but that 10% part turned me off, that kinda feeling..hahait's an alternative to shopping off the rack especially if you want something that's not mass produced or easily available eg, i like the storm yellow mojo rods but not their micro guides i want spiral but apart from the batch of spiral daiwas back in the 80s, there aren't any mass produced spirals blank binding ... wotever colours or combination you want guides reel seat handle ... material and design takin the handle angle further ... split or non-split, type of butt/gimbal/gimbal+slip on butt, length and material of handle for your hand best measured in person how do you want your foregrip customed to meet your needs/wants, fit and usage one may choose to keep it as lightweight as possible or with the best parts you choose (could be better than the mass produced) you may also choose to keep the cost down tackle pricing generally includes R&D and branding cost |

QUOTE(rorytate @ Mar 23 2013, 11:24 PM) Well said. Was about to reply the same LOL thx vincent, guess i got it. 1 more question: a RM1-2k rod and a RM500 rod, is there such huge difference? i can understand guides affecting casting range, real seat and handle are for personal preference, of course balancing as well, but what else in there that makes it so expensive? an expensive rod blank and a normal rod blank, what kind of differences we're talking about? sorry man got a lot questions Mostly for the purpose of lowering the cost with the specific specifications that you wanted it Eg: You wanted split handle but those you see doesn't face you You wanted split reel seat but it would be very costly or limited options available You wanted closer or smaller guides but limited options or cost You wanted specific poundage but again you may not find what you wanted Etc etc etc... Factoring all the possible demand or personal preferences, might as well build one For specific fishing mode, jigging can be ketiak game for light jigging. Some prefer support by arm, some prefer support via harness. In this case, body measurements is important to remove fatigue whilst fishing. Imagine you gotta jig or pop at least 2 thousands times a day. Another point is your reel, where every reel weight differently. With the right rod balancing, an angler would be able to jig the whole day. I've see many that pairs wrongly for the fishing method. Another major point is the type of fish you are aftering. Eg: parrot fish would be best paired with fast tapered rod for high sensitivity plus a strong backbone. Heavy jigging best paired with 60/40 backbone to allow the jig plates to dance... Too many factors to share. Gonna take a whole night to explore and explains But I'm sure you know where I'm coming from also, i'm looking at Daiwa Team rod, cost RM300, looks nice i really like it, or anyone has a better suggestion? (dont like cork handle) thx |

QUOTE(inv @ Mar 24 2013, 07:42 AM) not all blanks are made equal. some blanks are lighter, more sensitive and yet have the same strength with a blank with the opposite characteristic. most of the time, a lot of R&D has been put into developing these new lighter and more sensitive blanks, hence we are paying more for the R&D cost and on branding as well. the more reputable blanks like north fork composites, st croix starts from rm500 onwards, fuji titanium guides is around rm1k. u do the maths. |

QUOTE(SneakyLeaky @ Mar 24 2013, 12:37 PM) hey guys, i have something to discuss about. i've been getting much criticisms from my family members about me going fishing. u see, problem with parents is, nothing you do is right, if u just stay at home do nothing, they complain, go fishing they complain, go yumcha with friends always, complain, u read a lot, they say u dont go out and play, u go out play a lot, they say u dont stay at home. when later in ur life u move out cuz working somewhere else, they stopped complaining, cuz they dont see what u're doing, that's when u get ur freedom in a nutshell, they have been saying that i am ~wasting time~ they say.. - that i shud rather get a fish from the market - wasting petrol going to the place to fish - fishing is uncle's activity - my skin is tanned till i look like a malay (no racism intended lol) perhaps all i need is to get my full time job (i am 23 y/o). atm i am waiting for my result to be out at May and i am currently looking for a job. i guess maybe is becoz they don't 'see' me actually looking for a job that caused them to be so unsupportive. |

QUOTE(rorytate @ Mar 24 2013, 05:03 PM) Majorly comes fom the quality of the blank. This involve the amount of graphite, materials, bonding substance.. Etc. all these involves money. thx rory. i got it now. never expected guides alone can cost above 1k. i thought the same quality bmw same accessories but with diff branding and diff prices. Secondly, it's about research and development. The amount of test or damaged items due to testing has to be factor into account $$$ Thirdly, gaji of the rod builder, tester, design fella and machinery also factor in $$$ Import taxes??? Branding exposure $$??? A lot to go on with Pardon me with no puns intended: it's like you're comparing BMW with and type of rollable vehicle with engines Take BMW vs Honda and you relate it back to rod vs rod |
