My Offshore Escapades - 24 Aug 07

Date: 24 Aug 07.
Location: Changi, Tekong, Ubin.
Rod: Assinnin
Reel: Sonar 3000
Line: 12 lbs Braided.


We meet at usual at Changi Village for breakfast and proceed towards Ah Chong boat. The current was slow and we are targeting for Grouper & promfets.


We went to a structure area and hope for the best. Then after several casts.....the action came fast & furious. Our lines went out & the reel sounded.... zzzzz...zzzz.....zzzz. Lines were broken, but our hearts were pounding. Someone got a hook-up, but couldn't control the fish, it went towards the structureed area and got entangle. Poor fellow, tried his best to pull up the fish but couldn't. One guy landed a Golden Promfet.....waoooooohh. Nice..Nice.We are hoping to get more if them. Some Goohoot (Grunter) also came up.

I got my Goohoot (grunter)and Golden Promfet 1.5Kg after a while. I was extremely happy with the catch.

My Offshore Escapades - June 07

Next offshore trip was on 15 June '07. This trip was the second after March and was hoping to increase my catch. As usual, the boatman was Ah Chong and with Thanatos & Taufilk.
I lost several sinkers in the morning......sinkers got stuck and needed to have new line and sinkers.

In the afternoon, the action was slow and mostly Groupers came up. I was not getting any bite and this is not my day.
