In my opinion, if you take care of the braid well, it'll serve you good.
i.e; rinsing the line with water after each time you fish especially after exposed to saltwater.

I didn't know about braided line before this, just starting to learn. Another ppl who fish same place told me about it one.

wait till i get a new reel, then i'll prolly get the braided line to compliment

I'm damn sure
the thai fella which i get to know teach us "farang" how to fish at BSR, he teach us how to mix bait and show us the correct way to fish at bsr. He die die also say 20lbs is more then enough to play with. I even saw him hooked up a 40~50kg plabuk with 25lbs mono
well unless u kena those giant carp lar then different story ... most prolly u'll need 80lbs line pair with tiagra 20 + IGFA 24kg rated bottom rod to turn their bloody head

10-20kg no need 30 min fight la, they are powederful for the first 2-3 run only, line strip kau kau then they start to wear down, most likely about 10-15 min only can land liou.

^
Sifu level in bsr. Wahahahaha..
Umm how much is the rate for a day fishing there?including guide?

^

They charge 1000 bhat per entry for farang but thais get discount kaukau, guide should be around 1000-2000 bhat

approximately 300 buck after conversion.

get refund if no hook up.....

Whoa..so nice fishing park.Wished they have something like this in malaysia.

300bucks a day? Then if 5 people share a guide also 1k~2k baht?

lawl.is as if i feel da POWAH too while i reading this..

as i calculated 6 ppl to BSR u bring 4 rods to share enuff with 4 guide each ppl would cost around 330bucks a day.. i think is 8pm till 6pm
nt bad nt bad,might wanna try a carp package along if budget is allowed.
50% cash return if u dont get a 35lbs cat fish i think

there are "seasons" in fish valley. when the timing is right, you'll get fish everytime you cast, but with the right bait and technique. sometimes 0 fish. rm30bucks for full day fishing, 7am~7pm. rm20 for half day fishing, 1~7

Any directions to the place? Landmarks?
I tried to google but i cant find the exact location.

if u know where is Nirvana Semenyih, then u easily know where is semenyih fish valley.... its on the way to Nirvana but u make a right turn once u saw the fish valley signboard at the junction....

i don't have the gps coordinates. but the landmarks there is taman penindustrian sri haneco. if you're there, you're very very near fish valley already. the industrial area looks like a dead town with only a few operating shops.

ancua? =P come and join us la

why do u need a reel servicin?

mm seriously nt bad if you hooked on some big fish. mekong up to 35kg and araipama..thats wad d owner tell me la
he himself told me that his pond if wanna fish u have to go by morning 9pm till 12pm then 3pm till 6pm the rate of getting fish are much pratically higher.
with the method of floating bread,u'll have to cast as far as you can.

Im not targetting those super big fishes la.
Around 2 to 3kg would be very good for me already.

we shall see. im still a student. no budget. can go pond fishing already curi curi laugh already. the arapaimas are true but no one landed it before yet. the owner said, if you wanna land the arapaima, min. 40lb main line and 60 or 70lb leader. anything below that will putus and will hurt the araima.

if you're planning to target 2 to 3kg fishes, there an rm5 pond beside the main pond. fishes there ranges from 1~4kg. if not mistaken u can bungkus the fish. but im not too sure, coz i never fished in the rm5 pond before.
