sifu rory.hi there.just back from outstation work.what time ur going to klang?i thought want to dropby the kepong to buy the rod n reel

Hi bro S2002,
What rod and reel you want to buy?

I'm heading to klang earlier. Sis Sweet is overnighting at her sister's place at Klang and she will drop me to Tg Harapan after dinner..


Bro Alex,
where are we meeting up for dinner? Or a place to meet up?

Nobody online today? All busy preparing for tonite?

Today most probably will be fishing in PD.......beach fishing only.

meeting alex 630pm in klang somewhere .. current coming in at 8pm .. leaving jetty around 9pm

u call alex already?

alex already SMS me laa ..

Would anyone of you be so kind to post the fishing rigs you use in short shallow water, bottom fishing and semi deep (less than 100m) , I have just started fishing and the online tutorial diagrams with knots, well lets just say my catch has been ......nothing....is it my presentation or something else.Thanks!

hi bro,
How you setup your bottom fishing rig ?

Assuming you own a multiplier ... for bottom fishing (less then 100m), you will need a 8" T-line spreader, two "lam" plus mono leader approx around 11-12 feet and optional 1ft long wire line for hook. If you were targeting something like snapper you can go without wire line but wire line is mandatory when you came across a school of barracudas.

As for bait presentation .. what type of bait u were using ? dead or live ? squid ? fish fillet ?
Well i'll roughly cover abit on squid la, best size of live squid to use as bait were about 4"~5" long. You can opt for a single hook or double hook solution for better hookup rate. As for me i opt for single hook method.

Rigging a squid is easy using a single hook, just take a 4/0 hook and run it through the tail 3 times. This presentation method make the squid look much more natural when it reach the seabed and higher chance to get a bite from grouper or snapper. As for double hook.. use a smaller hook such as 3/0 or 2/0 and pierce it through the tail twice and use a bigger hook such as 4/0, 5/0, go through it's head or body, well this method does increase the hookup rate but not that inviting when compared with the single hook method.

Another factor which need to be considered which is current.. if it's dead .. you cant just sink your bait to the bottom. You are required to crank your reel up at least 4~7 turn. eg a 6.2:1 reel would reel in approx 42" of line per crank. If the current is fast just sink your bait to bottom and wait. Tips, feeding frenzy usually occur when tide change, you need to be fast as it just gonna last for about 30min or so. That the golden hour to nail as much fish as you could.

try out squid! nothing beat sotong!!

Finally, fishing is all about luck n patience ! ehhehe try again bro!

welcome in bro Prea to our little angling thread.

if it's mainly on bottom fishing, please consult bro nico. He's good with bottom. I don't do bottom much so I'm learning as you do.

myself more towards the lures part, be it hardbody lure, soft body, popping or jigging

i scratched my rapala rattlin while fishing under the segari bridge..one of it's side's plastic has torn off..now the lure have only 1 eye
