Bro Fookie,
is it on boat or from shore?

If from shore, i'm sure the fishing pressure is high. Please dont give up. There's siakap there but just not taking your bait and lure.

On luring, maybe your presentation not right. Lure is not as simple as cast and reel in nia..

could be one of those pre-historic fishies?

Hi All,

Last sunday i went recce a new place with Unker


View from the VSAT

We we hoping to access and not knowing how to go, 2 GPS unit was being used. 1x Garmin Que and 1x Garmin-dunno-what-ahndheld-gps. We reached the place safely and viewing the wonderful spot that we have found. We are overjoyed and thinking how great our day is going to become~! Quickly, boat is deployed and Garmin handheld is activated(to make sure we know the way back )


Plenty of kayu mati areas....

Beautiful sceneries


And calm lakes....

Thinking back to places i have been....it's similar to Kenyir, Air Ganda, Banding and many dams in Malaysia....woohoo...it's heaven to me~!

It have been raining for few days, and mother nature shines us with it's bright light and blue skies.......


Early morn light


Calm lakes, bright and sunny - PERFECT combi for toman hunting

well...of course..later of the day, the wind kicks in and the water is slightly choppy..







Plenty of coves and kayu mati area for us to recce.... I'm enthralled~!!

not going to continue the report...~

dunno why the 2nd shot didnt come out. Copy and paste the link into your browser...

hi Matt,
Since you're from Klang, do page bro AlexNg. He stays at Klang...

BTW, Bro Ho also stays in Klang and very good 'fruit orchard' entrepreneur besides an angler

Bro Fookie,
Try search in YouTube and see how they present and manipulate the lures. I will teach you when I see you cos some of the technique needs demo and hands on practise.

Bro KLMT and bro Vw also very good in lures..

fishes is around, just that 'they' might be out of the vicinity..

no splash means no one in the forum

Bro Ho says mandi bunga many many time wor

Bro Vw,
Great that you have upgraded your CH100A. Did you add additional plate between the carbontex drag?

Furthermore, i think 7kg is more than enough for most fishing. You can have 10kg drag but you are using 20lb rod. The lines are not able to go out and your rod will sustain a full parabolic bend and end up broken rod...

ENough edi ler

towkay mee not got boat and engine liao.. hehehehe

Bro fookie,
spinning alsobcan upgrade. In fact much easier my stradic 6000 upgraded to near 20kg of max drag. Enough to jig in many places in Msia

Well< bro Nico is right....but i do have another suggestion.

COs you DOESNT know if jigging would be fun for yourself, get a so-so setup for trial.... and if you like jigging, then you upgrade to a better one..

Strongly suggest get a better reel like freamJ(not Tomman crap) then match it with some OK jigging rod..

By then if you like jigging, you just need to upgrade your rod.. the reel is not wasted

definitely ler bro Ho,

Sustain is one(or few) step higher than Stradic ler..

what do you mean your collection is RM200?

If I'm not mistaken, caldia kix doesn't come with power handle. Just a rubber T handle nia. Bro Ho, please confirm if it's with power handle?

FreamJ comes with power handle but plastic type, not rubber

Bro Fookie,
Those power handle that you see is heavy as it is CNC from solid piece of aluminium. It copies the design from reputable power handle brand, RCS. RCS ones are made of tin mixture compound thus lighter and stronger

damn busy these few days

Bro Fookie,
Not pro ler...just experienced before nia..

BTW, Alot of Daiwa and Shimano models have same(or similar internal design)

Sometimes, you dont need to spend that extra few hundred bucks to get the slightly higher end models..

Bro Fookie,

I'm confused leh, you said you're fishing at the seaside and yet can get haruan????

BTW, the unknown fish that you caught is an EEL

Got baby siakap leh

Bro KLMT sponsor boat can liao

I sponsor GPS and lures..

bro Vw,
