Wind, wind and more wind....


Just got back from K.Rompin on Sunday. My first trip up north for this year ended up... very windy.

It was a 3 days fishing trip. For the first day, just after we left the river out into the sea, the boatman decided to turn back for good as the swell was too much for the vessel and the weather was not looking really good. We turned back for safety sake.

Second day, strong wind and 2-3m swells as usual... but we did get to different spots but yielded no results. No sighting of sailfish or mackies at all...

Third day, the sun welcomed us in the morning. Light breeze brushed our faces... our hopes were re-ignited but in the end... the rain hit us. The swells came... the wind picked up...

I managed only a fish on jig and missed a mackie twice on the same jig... saw a sailfish (might be a marlin due to the brown shine) but nothing... A mackie severed a rig with balloon and the rest of the day was uneventful.

It was kinda discouraging especially it is my first trip but somehow, I am now looking forward to my next trip up north. Hopefully soon.....
