| Welcome to Rompin,
Malaysia |
My fishing friends,
Steve & Kim |
First morning - very
excited |
 |
 |
 |
| The scad is a prime
bait for Sailfish |
Ace1 lets out the
first balloon... |
...and we have to wait
almost 3 minutes for a bite ! |
 |
 |
 |
| Kim was elected no 1
on the rods |
And then the fun
begins... |
Saltwater Aerobatics ! |
 |
 |
 |
| We are amazed byt the
colours on the fish |
Even the sail is lit
up |
Super happy Kim. |
 |
 |
 |
| Then it's my turn on
the rods |
Again, we only have to
wait a few minutes |
And another super
happy angler. |
 |
 |
 |
| Steve rigging for
Popper fishing |
And the Sialfish were
interested |
We got several bites,
but lost them all. |
 |
 |
 |
| Bum-Boys - double
hook-up ! |
Steve's fish is first
in |
and it's another
beauty. |
 |
 |
 |
| Kim's fish is a rare
split-bill |
An extraodinary catch |
And here they are. |
 |
 |
 |
| Side catches are most
welcome, here Cobia |
and here, Narrowbarred
Spanish Mackerel |
Both fish + this
unfortunate Squid ended up as Sushi. |
 |
 |
 |
| A "day off" - we went
snorkeling |
Amongst beautiful fish |
and some scary, aswell
- right Steve ? |
 |
 |
 |
| Welcome to the Jungle,
Jean-Francois ! |
Target fish here is
the Giant Snakehead |
Good and aggressive
fighters. |
 |
 |
 |
| Kim with first fish |
Steve with Snakehead |
Johnny with Snakehead. |
 |
 |
 |
| The small greedy
Jungle Perch (Hampala Barb) |
We used either Rapala
or Catfish for bait. |
Besides the wildlife
(more images coming)... |
 |
 |
 |
| ...the Jungle itself
was glorious |
Jungle waterfalls... |
...were our lunchtime
retreats. |
