Groupers again!

Last night went went to Scow again. Together with me were my father, ah wah, watermelon man, chu and his cousin. Chu's cousin was the first to land a 1kg+ grouper. An hour later, there comes my father in action to land his 2.9kg grouper. Not long after that, there comes my luck with my 1.7kg grouper. My father and I went home at 12.00 am while the others were still hunting there.

Fishing again!!

After having more than 2 months rest from fishing, I started again on last Thursday and saturday. Luck was on my side as both trip was fruitful. Not big but enough for a meal. My friends did land range from 1.5kgs - 4.5kgs groupers on both night but sorry, forgot to take their pictures. These are my catches.

New Year Blessing

On the night of last Friday my dad landed a 1.2kg red snapper around 11.30pm. At last my dad has his own fish to keep for Chinese New Year. Chinese believe it will bring good luck to keep it through the whole Chinese New Year period. Wishing everyone of you Happy Chinese New Year & GONG XI FA CAI.

Happily with his catch

1.2kg red snapper

First RED of 2010

This 1.2kg red snapper is just a great present for this coming Chinese New Year. So far this year, this is my best catch. In fact this is my biggest catch this year. Beside the red, I also landed a small 400g grouper.

Tiger Grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus)

Last night once again we went fishing but this time we switched location to 'tembok' or 'highway'. I didn't have any luck, only a few nibbles. But my dad was the only 1 in action last night. At 10.30 pm, out of silence suddenly my dad started pulling his line but with the help of watermelon man at last we heard a big splash before landind the 2.7kg tiger grouper.
