That's one big fat barb, thanks for sharing.

Thanks mtan8, sorry for not replying earlier. This is a good picture, though I would love one with higher resolution. Please email any additional images to handlinefishing@gmail.com, your contribution is very much appreciated.

That's definitely a big one. You have quite a knack for trying the less commonly eaten local fishes, I must say I'm intrigued and certainly do appreciate your inputs on the taste of these different fishes. :grin: Edit: Again, if you don't mind I would like to use your fish photos for HLF. :thumbsup:

Thanks for letting me use your photos, would happen to have a higher resolution of this ray without its tail being cropped off? The ray does have venomous sting like many stingrays but I doubt it can't be eaten (don't take my word for it). It's more widely regarded as as a pet locally. :sweatdrop: T...

Thanks for sharing these catches, do you mind if I use them for HLF? The ray is Motoro for sure, released by fish hobbyists. If possible, don't release these invasive species back into the waters. For the catfish, I am not too certain if it's a Patin. I'll try to look it up, catfish family is big an...

Thanks for sharing. The Zebra's body does feel tougher than the common Tilapia, maybe it has something to do with it.

Congrats on landing this big ray, it must be a record for you. Agree that fresh sotong works wonders, it is a very effective bait.

I heard that the catches there are very good recently, hope you can get more biggies!

Yes, I believe it's a False Trevally (Lactarius lactarius) too. I've never seen one before, that's an awesome catch by your friend. Do you guys mind if I use your fish photo for HLF?

Great job landing that beautiful ray, you really know your spot well. The one that got away could be a tuskfish or a grouper.

I actually rushed down to fish the moment the clock struck 12 on the 19th

You're one hardcore angler.

Sorry can't help you much on this. It's quite commonly sold here in Singapore tackle shops. If you ever visit Malaysia or Indonesia, be sure to check out their tackleshops for it.

Oh wow, I miss your catch report. The catch is awesome and the video is well made, I enjoyed it. Phase 2 starts today, anglers will be landing biggies for the next few days.
