Blacklisted Membership, FOC and will be watched at all times!!!


Just now, my staffs caught an angler stealing fish from the net. He claimed that he accidentally cast his bait into the net. My staff adviced him to release the fish back.
It didnt take long to have the fish at the bank of the pond and guess what?!?!?!
He didnt remove the hook from the fish mouth. My staff adviced him to cut the line but he showed us a signal meaning the fish swallowed the hook.
THEN HE FLIPPED THE FISH INTO MIDAIR USING THE LEADER STILL ATTACHED TO THE MOUTH. THE FISH WENT SOMERSAULT IN MIDAIR BEFORE LANDING INTO THE WATER...
My staff went ahead to question him why did he do that and why did he not remove the hook. He told my staff that the hook was on the face of the fish...
LIAR!!! ONE MOMENT FISH SWALLOWED HOOK, ONE MOMENT HOOK ON THE FACE...
BIG FAT LIAR!!!
Welcome to the black listed club dude... well done!!!
By the way, it is not his first time committing such an act already...

Just went to try another bay'slure... (*shhh.....*)



The sun just set and from afar, I could hear reels screaming...
(those Daiwa SS700 really noisy......)

My heart was tempted to go do some luring... (hands itchy...)

Searching through the new lures, I picked a lipless crankbait by bay's.

It didnt take long before I had a hookup. A nice barramundi (est. 1.5kg) started skipping above the surface of the water. The lure rattled loudly in mid air and gone silent when the fish got back into the water.

After awhile, the fish was landed. One of the hook from the treble broke off...

Upon examing the hooks, the hooks are very sharp but maybe that's why it is a little brittle.

I checked the lure for abrasion and surprisingly, very little wear on the body. The body of this lure is very hard and apparently, tough against abrasion. Quite good in this sense.

More reviews will come when I have time to test out others.

Red snapper caught using a new lure by "bay's".



Yesterday, I got myself another range of lures by Bay's from 2000Tackle. Bay's lures look pretty decent in the finishing. I tested a few for swimming action and they all sure swim really tight. The ball bearings within the lures make a nice rattle. They sure impress me abit.
As the day was getting really late, I got Mr Yap to test drive one himself. This lure (the pic below) has also a tight swimming action. It floats well and dives really well too. Although it has s small lip but it can reach depth more than a meter. Impressive.
Although it floats, but it doesnt really reach the surface quickly. Kinda suspending like. I got Mr Yap to twitch the lure and fished it really slow. Mr Yap is not a lure fisherman and to twitch a lure is kinda hard to adapt as it takes lots of patience to fish a lure with such properties. He was kinda skeptical but suddenly his line went tight after experiencing at tap at the end of the line. he striked and straightaway, the 10lbs braided line started peeling off the reel.
FISH ON!!!
After like 5mins, the golden snapper was landed. A nice fish with power packed muscles in the water. The experience is exhilirating for Mr Yap.
He said, "Shiok!!!"
I cannot remember how much did I spend but I got myself 3 times $5 voucher for fishing at Pasir Ris Pro Fishing..... I have no need for the vouchers man.....
LOL

Typical Kiasu Anglers?

It was like 30mins ago, I noticed an angler was standing at the dividing fence between the pro pond and event pond. He was standing in a funny position... his body language gave him away...

HE WAS FISHING IN THE EVENT POND WHILE STANDING ON THE PRO POND SIDE!!!

For a moment, he shifted his body and rod position with his line still in the pro pond to make believe that he was fishing in the pro pond.

WHY MUST HE DO THIS??? WHY??? FOR WHAT? CHEAP THRILL???

I walked out of the office immediately when he was retreiving his line. He saw me... and quickly he tried to cover his act... He was retreiving his line as if he was fishing in the pro pond... LAME!!!

After this, he didnt fish the event pond again. Just as his fishing session ended... he dumped all his bait (fish meat) into the pond... in retaliation???

We allow only one rod per angler but not two... he used two... caught in the act too...

In three hours... he used two rods, fished the event pond and dumped all his unused baits into the pond...

GET A LIFE dudez!!!

More updates on the lure...


Just 3 days. total time in the water, less than 45mins. A good lure!!! Posted by Picasa

New lure review :Technic Pro-Hunter Catch Minnow 90cm


Yesterday, I was shopping for more prawning rods, I came across a new lure on the rack.

Pro-Hunter Catch Minnow 90cm by Technic.

At first glance, I thought I saw Maria XJ or Maria The First but I was wrong. I took a closer look and the price is kinda encouraging, $5.50 only. I decided to buy one to test it out at the pro pond.

I always have very high confidence with Maria's lures and this lure is almost identical.

By the courtesy of 2000Tackle (at Pasir Ris fishing pond), I got myself a FOC lure.

First impression... lousy finishing...

No 3D eyes...... just stickers

On the packaging, it claims to be 'tank tested, 'heavy duty V.M.C hook', 'extra strong split rings' and 'ideal for fresh & saltwater use'.

Oh well, I dont think the fish will be so choosy about the finishing or 3D eyes... I put it onto my tackle and give it a go.

SURPRISED!!!

The swimming action is pretty decent. Even a slow retrieve rate (not dead slow), the lure swims well. Cool!

I didnt fish long before I had a take. The 20lbs braided line started to get peeled off the reel. The whole thing only lasted like 10s and the line went limp... eeks... The hit was hard and the run was a adrenaline rush... I guess maybe it was a nice decent golden snapper.

I guess this lure proved itself already. At half the price of a Maria The First or Maria XJ, this lure works. Although the Marias are more expensive but in my own opinion, they are more durable in finishing and quality. This catch minnow by Technic already has paint peeling off from the teeth of fearsome critter in the pond.

For budget lures, this is a good lure to have in the tackle arsenal.

$5.50 only, why not?
