Thanks Peace
Was very lucky to be able to land it
as I later found out that my 10lbs leader almost gave way
due to the fish diving for the rocky holes

A wonderful gift :gift: for this lunar new year 2013 - A Haruan on spin fly :nod: Yes, I found it unbelievable myself when I reeled it in too. This fish weighs over a kg and put up a good fight on my UL setup (2-5lbs telescopic rod & 4lbs braided on a size 500 reel). Now I can add another FW species...

You are most welcome bro Kishore :) Nice catches there! Welcome to the world of spinning fly! Glad to see you enjoy it. Yes! that one-on-one fight feel when the fish is hooked on your fly is simply superb experience, that's why til now my lures are hanging dry and I am hooked on spinning fly. You ma...

Nice catch there. If I am not wrong, the longkang there is now leading to a reservoir (Serangoon Reservoir) and not out to the sea anymore. So suprising to see that KBL still surviving there, I was trying to hunt for a peacock bass there instead haha..

ya, I do fish in Punggol Park and the big longkang behind it. you fish there too?

Pretty fun 3 hrs trip this afternoon at Singapore southern rocky shoreline. Caught 3 Blackspot Tuskfishes, 2 Anchor Tuskfishes and 1 Todak. The larger Blackspot Tuskfish was surprisingly powerful with its sudden rush I thought it was more than 1 kg but its actually probably 500g (actual length appr...

No idea pb likes red or not, but I hit them mostly on white flies. looking forward for your spin fly CR soon

i was just asking if i have to use UL setup cos i scared hook itself too light to cast out lol.... i thought of maybe trying for PBs what fly should i get? ic ic.. guess you're new to spinning flies, you'll need to add a small weight (e.g. ball sinker or split shot) before you can actually cast out...

Thanks for the great pictures on Labrador Coastal walk. Will go there walk walk some day. I think the Circle Line Labrador Park MRT Station has a link to the broadwalk.

hmm but still using UL setup? and how do you tie the hook onto your main line? was thinking of aiming PBs and maybe also test at paypond :eyebrow: Shouldn't be a problem, i am using an UL setup for my spin fly sessions with flies ranging from hook size 6 to 1/0. Never tried paypond though, you may ...
