Bro Nico,

As per last year, The boat can carry easily 15~20pax, but for fishing it's suggested at 4~5. You will not get sun, unless you stood at the boat hull.

Bro CHun gonan taruh me soon..kekekek

everyone also busy i guess

busy making more bucks~!

hmmn...good point.

Most of the time if client calls me when i'm having meeting, i'll tell them straight..

Maybe your type of business, the clients need TLC communication?

Bro Shiong,
Nico's boat is only 3 pax including bro Nico as confirmed by him. Perhaps can you get him to post the confirmation that his boat has 4 pax? Sorry for the troublesome work, but just would like to avoid any miscommunication.

If you wanna do 5 pax to a boat, it's possible too. The line wont get tangle that bad if only 2 lines being laid out for Sailfish and the rest doing bottom or jigging.

watch shop?

maybe you can seek in lelong.com.my, perhaps they have one for sale?

tatao wor...sorry bro, me not good with watches...sorry for not able to help

TLC = Tender Loving Care

Hi Bro iPlay,
Uncle Bob expect 3 months down the road. However bear in mind that if you are late, then you will not get the good goodies

Bro CHun,
We kena taruh baru know how to improve mah

YES, Rapala DTF is having the unique hook called SureSet where the treble hook have 2 short one and 1 long one like suicide hook. However, i would not recommend to use the standard SureSet hooks cos it's super thin and as i bend it a little, the gap starts to open

Matthew? You still meet up with him? Yes, TD is super nice for sebbie esp the firetiger or the full orange color ones. However it will work on certain places of toman. Some of the toman does not favor minnow shaped lure.

SIMPAN and sendiri use lar

Thanks for the understanding bro Nico. I just want to keep as transparent as possible

I'll update the list.

We will discuss the logistic after Merdeka(2 weeks from now) and to collect the full amount for the boat fare.

Small boat is RM500 and the larger boat is RM750

I will collect the said sum from the team leader as stated below
1. Rory - behalf of the larger boat (We will kawtim among ourselves)
2. KenY (Rm125 per pax)
3. Nico (Rm100 per pax)

As regular, the discussion point will be at some tackle shop for some minor shopping.

Bro Nico,
Kindly advice the names of your team. Would like to know the location your team is staying so that i can arrange a place for our discussion.

Bro Nico,
I have updated the name list for the boat.

Since some of the guys in S'ban, perhaps you can recommend a representative for your team to arrange for the logistic and discussion session.

Thank you for your understanding bro Nico, let's make this trip a happening one....practically a get-together for LYN anglers.

Angcho i'm not sure, but grouper is not an issue..

I jig some big fat grouper from Merchong too

very easy to arrange for another boat la...4 pax nia ma...i'm sure can find people one lah..

Bro Hanis,
Would like to know more about your beach fishing style or you have not fish before?

In beach fishing there are few types
1. surfcasting
2. rock casting
3. water breaker casting

Surfcasting is something very new in Malaysia which started to popular about 3 years ago. Angler uses a 14~21footer rod pairing with a huge size reel and cast a lead weight about 200grams.

Rock casting is much easier where you just need to lure the rock fishes to strike. Any ordinary fishing set can do that, no specific setup. Most of the catches are like grouper, baby pek cho, baracuda and baby GT types. The pelagic fishes would be smaller or juvenile size, however there are lucky anglers who managed to hook some biggies

Water breaker casting is very much similar to rock casting. Still using lures but the location of the fishing spot is different. As stated by the name, you cast towards water breaker and lure them to strike. Water breaker in Malaysia have some good fishes but dont expect biggies. In Australia, you can catch plenty types of fishes and i can say that they are huge too. Image a Rooster fish the size of 12kg from water breaker....

Do share with us more about your fishing stuffs and let's explore..

VMC is tough built but depending on the hook type.

Some of the treble hooks is being welded with titanium or certain compound to ensure that the hook will not torn off from the 1 piece double hook. Some of the treble hook are chemically treated to ensure the sharpness. Some of the treble hooks are extra strong with 3x, 4x, 5x and such.

The SureSet hooks will definitely easier to penetrate thru due to the thin construction but thin construction will also make the treble hook softer compared to normal. Anyway, it's my 2cent and usually i'll change it to carbon hooks if i want to maintain the thinness of the hook.

Matthew is also one of uncle Bob's shop supporter. Have not seen him for a long time since he fell in laguna and damages his mobile phone..kekekke

If not to use the MF30 or MF40 due to it's price, you can always opt for R2S ma or even soft plastic. Between the two, i would go for soft plastic if possible rather than R2S. Somehow R2S can trigger a strike from haruan but not able to set the hook. Maybe we need a right method of using the R2S.
