Seems a lot of people take small gun for big fight.

If you use small gun win big fight even better the feel and the story you can tell others. Using big gun for big fight not much glory in the win. That's my opinion and the way I fish I guess.

Nice pics of the competition. Thanks for sharing

If you doing pleasure fishing just for fun and relaxing
I don't mind. .. but this is a competition

If you fail to control the fish or the fish is too much for your
Gear . How you expect the person next to you to react ?

He may not give a damn on it

So what I would say is bring appropriate gear
Specially when you in a competition, there no overkill on that

Only loser and winner . Glory or shame......

Btw I saw quite abit of pe 8 and pe 10 rod.....
Koz smith ....

I would still use my normal gear which is very light in a place like Exotic. Its the fun of fishing for me. By your logic are you suggesting people use 100pound line and maximum drag when fishing in competition

Well I would say use what you like, different people have different likes when it comes to fishing. Most importantly one must have fun! Ya in pay ponds must make sure you do not disturb the guys on both sides when fishing. I really hate the guys who can't cast straight and must cross your line when they fish

Pe 8 lol.GT fishing meh.

lol got arapaima there. Make sense then.

pe8-10. nutz.

Lesson learn. Using Pe3 for toman. Bait is pig heart. Can't even shake the monster. End up telling story the biggest one always escape.

Guys I been invited to pekan fishing trip at 11 of may

The target fish would be ang koli aka parrot fish and some light jigging too.

I would like to ask what type of gear I should prepare ?
Rod / reel & hook size

PE 3-5 for parrot fish since they tend to be around the reefs so you need to yank them out

Top water PE1-3 for some good action. The new biomaster SW4000XG looks pretty sweet


Anybody here owns a Shimano Exsense DC? 2012 and 2013 models are the same except for the drive sides right?

Biomaster sw 4000xg got new model? I thought so far only old model. Currently using chronarch ci4. Quite good for its price.

I think bro Einjahr has 1.Its been awhile i roam the tackle shops or online shop.gettin pretty outdated

New model as in the 13 one.

Chronarch ci4+ was in my list too until the price went up to 800-900 after the new japan made ones came.

Im looking at the Exsence DC particularly for the DC whine and also the drag clicker.

Haha, the lesser you roam the better. Else there are so many things to buy!

Hey Einjahr, do you own an Exsence DC? If yes i have a couple of questions for you if you dont mind

where did you hear that?
i' wished! lol

dunno, I don't own an Exsence DC, I know a friend who has one but sold it off soon after- i think its a good reel, not sure why he sold it.

I have the Chronarch ci4+ but not too sure if its worth the price really, its light, yes, but eventually I find I don't really enjoy the 'plasticky' feeling when holding it, i'm looking forward to sell it real soon in the hope of making enough coin for the 2014 conquest.

owh previously i tot u were looking for one.no? lol

any reviews on rodford ryojin?

Read a few reviews from GNP in facebook. A guy went jigging with it and actually pull up a 7kg tenggiri with no problem at all. Another guy used it in Tiger5, no problem reeling up the longtans.

Nice reel IMO
