The 'fight' is tremendously strong. It was a great experience. It reminds me of pulling an Alsation (police dog) ... no joke. U reel her in once (1 round of reeling in), she stripe our line about 4 - 5 rounds ... just imagine. Thanks to daddy for giving me a chance to feel the 'fight' although I know you were actually tired.    but thanks ...

Up to you bro ... I'm almost ready anytime ... still have about 3 months before the season starts ... hehe 

Now they laughing... that one maybe their secret... 

You said Linggi bro? Yesterday me and klmt lunch at Linggi lorr... damn far from spot R..

err bos, not linggi actually... it's somewhere after port d****son blue lagoon, i depart from tanjung agas jetty. =) as for jigging i'm cant really confirm with u ler.. i tried once but not really laku ler .. 
i can ask my fren to arrange that for you guys, but no weekend trip la.. he he coz the owner itself gonna go fishing with his kaki's. Only weekdays trip were avaliable.

some info-
- Depart around 6 or 7 pm after dinner session at a local mamak stall.

- Reach sotong spot around 8 or 9pm, start to catch sotong and the time frame.. hrmm subjective n depends on how much we could stockpile for that nite.

- Kapal karam jepun - require around 2-3 hours of ride. (depth 180-190Ft)
*Target species big size grouper, jernahak, barracuda and once in the blue moon some manta ray would bite. So far only 1 manta ray around 50kg++ being caught by one unker,  the rest well... all either line snap or the angler itself "kondem" and gave up. but recently there were some s0hai nelayan use pukat tunda on that spot and had it's net sangkut the shipwreck, covering either part or whole ship with net .. and condemning the marine life ecosystem.

- Kapal karam kayu/tonkang - require around 1-2 hour of ride(depth 190-200ft)
*Target species - table size angjo 1-3kg

-Karang Gerbok/gt - require 1-2 hour of ride (depth unknown but not as deep as those 2 lubuk above la.
*Target species big mama angjo, ikan merah, and GT, anyway GT not always available, only avaliable on the 7th-9th day of chinese new year but there's some stray GT around 5-8kg roaming around once in a while. Size of gt caught before by those unkers, 8 kilo and above some unker recorded around 30kg++ ...

- Tanjung tuan - require around 1 hour of ride (depth unknown)
*Target species table sized angjo around 1-2kg.

other's
* Fishing method bottom
* Bait - Fresh ocean squid or todak
* Line - min 65lb braid, recommended 80lbs braid, hell lot's of sangkut, say bye bye to your sinker, line spreader, hook and leader if you are using anything less then 50lbs braid. (sinker no18 = 6 buck + spreader rm 2.5 + hook = 8~9buck gone if sangkut)
* Leader - 12-14" of 50lbs wireline and 7-9ft of 50lbs mono leader.
* Rod - any rod rated 8kg and above would be fine. (your own preference)
* Reel - you want fast retrieve then get 6.2:1 reel like mine. (sinker is heavy ahh. tarak energy to crank up .. hrmmm or perhaps i'm lazy =)
* Misc- stock yourself at least 2 pack of marlboro light, some clorects candy for vomiting issue, 3 cans of nescafe latte and some livita honey for the long nite, and some optional porn vid to release tension on a dull nite la.
* Max 6 pax but sort of crowded when doing bottom lar .. line tangling issue so the best would be 5 pax.
*charges, around 400-500 per boat (to be confirm)
* Pantang (if you guys going on his boat)- don't ask tekong "where we were going to fish ?" just tell him, tekong bawa kita olang pegi tempat yang ada ikan =)
