I've not fished there before as well. What sort of fishing will be doing there? Are you taking those big party boats or small pleasure crafts?

Hello there, Vidic.

That's a nice catch. I think it's still a young ray, it will grow out of its roundish shape as it grows bigger and its pattern will be be more apparent whether its reticulated or honeycomb. I personally think it's a honeycomb whipray.

The moon wrasse is a rare find indeed, I don't think I've encountered one before. It's been documented before in our waters and it's definitely not something we can see everyday.

Did you bring a tank to photograph the fish in? It's very well taken.

Your current setup should be fine for surf fishing. For live tamban baiting, I personally think size 1 hook is a little small. In terms of strength, it is okay if you're using live baiting hooks but I prefer a bigger hook for its wider mouth gap. For surf fishing I use size 2/0-3/0 for live prawns, ...

May I ask what tackles do you currently have? What's your budget like?

Hi sjl36, welcome to HLF and back into fishing. If you're interested in surf fishing particularly at BJT, you can have a look at this website . It's done by an experienced surf angler; lots of know-how and tips on fishing at that jetty. 1) Is 5-9am a good time to fish at bedok jetty in general? Im p...

I admire your vigor on the long hours of fishing, getting soaked in the rain no less. Congrats to your friend on landing those big duris. Psst...having to strike and feel the first burst of the fish is the most exciting part of the fishing in my opinion. :shh: Thanks for sharing your team's catch re...

I believe that's a Staghorn Damselfish (Amblyglyphidodon curacao). Good find!

Good stuff, hope you land a big one on surf soon!

Nice surf rods, what rod is the spinning one? I love my Berkley Red Hot for freshwater luring, a budget rod but always brought me good luck in fishing. <3 For offshore I'm using a Shimano Tescata, great for light bottom and madai jigs, I would have got another of its heavier model if it's still in p...

Let me look into my crystal ball....Dominic?

How've you been?

That barracuda don't look small at all and pretty darn good fishing with just a few cast.

Hi Foli, there are few things to consider here. 1. You want to make sure the line you're using match your rod rating to prevent the rod from overloading. 2. Consider the reel's line capacity; having enough line/line to the brim helps you cast further(especially for spinning reels). Loading heavier l...

Ah I see, so it's likely the preying on the school of small fish and also why it took your jig. I'm still not sure of its identification though.
