Guys, quick question. If carry those huge 'bazooka' rod tubes/case when flying can check in like normal? or need to buy sporting equipment?

hmmm...am considering that

haha... true maybe I should get one

was in KL for the past week. managed to fish 2 spots. CRs:

1) the kolam siakap at banting. barra's were relatively easy n fun. no GT or senangin wana layan that day. i also think fly would be better. managed to land a grouper towards the end of the day but yea, that was pretty much it

2) luring at exotic rawang. wasn't the best time to go. monday, late in the morning and the pond was just oily and full of 'fats' plenty of failed hookups and slips (including one biggie which gave me a good 10min workout before it gave the hook a slip). only managed 2 asians and that was it. worst part was that the oil was just horrible and i had to discard my line after that and give the reel a good clean.

nope...they have it there?

noted. yea...those slimes are just awful.

nice. will give the pellets a try next time

can someone clarify what they mean by 24+30 ton carbon? Ive seen some other rodss advertise the same way too. Like 50 ton pressed etc etc.

thanks for the explanation bro viox. btw...anyone went to SACC? how's it?

saw a guy selling on GNP88 minutes ago. same exact set.

ive seen those otai's who aim for jackpot use 40-50lb braid for the heavy fishes. they usually wan the fish up ASAP, afraid snag other ppl line and lose the fish.

Sounds fun. Happy fishing guys. Do post some pics. Wished I could join but I'm across the south china sea atm.

thx for inviting but im not in KL at that time.

Never used a lever drag before. Can't help u either.

Btw, assuming same year of make, anyone knows if a Stella 2500 can fit a 3000 size spool?

nice setup. where u got ur bassterra rod? kinda hard to find these days, especially that model.

this reply so much win

i personally have not surf fished but i do know that bc allows further n more accurate casting. But is accuracy that important in surf fishing that requires precision of a bc?

saya bukan orang kaya tapi hobi saya mahal

my 2 cents, i think at the end personal satisfaction la. if u have no budget, skies the limit. just how would u like to enjoy ur fishing and the type of fishing u do
yes u can spend on a cheap setup but the question of durability comes to play. cheap doesn't mean it will breakdown faster, but then again there's always a risk
i've used cheap setups before, yes they get the job done. but beware that one day will come when u lost that trophy fish because ur gear malfunctioned or failed on you
there's a reason why some fishing equipment are so high priced and why ppl are willing to fork out money for good gear. those who have will know why

PS: stella is like butter...with 'poison' in it

Do you know the secret to fishing?

what he meant was that presentation of the bait matters. same goes to your rigs.

dayummm man. you seriously got some issues man.
other forummers here willing to help you & you reply them by calling them idiots, or jackasses
since you dont give a s** about what others think, why even bother to ask for opinion in the first place
good night to you, and good luck to your 'fishing'. you've just earn an ignore from me.
