Nice CR from Rompin Sails ... Marlin I mean. :thumbsup: Yes I agreed, Rompin is pretty over-fish and Sails size are getting smaller each year. The Sails no.s are decreasing and Marlin is almost impossible there. Nice catch on the Dorados ... make me excited for my Sails trip in October. Wish me luc...

Hi Peace,
From the boatman catching a Marlin is like striking 4D.

Used to be common some 10yrs ago but they were overfished and these days hardly see any.

There was no plan for me to go Rompin this year. However, a group of my new known fishing kakis will like to trip catching a Sail. So I arranged this trip for 9-10July which I know it is still too early for Sail in Rompin. 2days before the trip call up Jason, the fishing guide to check if there is S...

The date is set for 9 and 10 July. The package is ard $370 base on 5 person and $309 base on 6 person. It includes 2 way transport,1 night stay on the Sat night, drinks and lunch onboard, breakfast and dinner not included(Cost share over there) . The plan will be to leave for Rompin on Friday around...

Did not expect much from the trip but just a few drops my reel started to zee....... even my clicker broke. A great 10mins fight and I was thinking it might be a queenie, but sadly t...

Hi Raymond, My experience of boatfishing in the seas off Pangkor Island covering Pulau Sembilan is using fresh ikan bilis for bottom fishing. The fresh ikan bilis can only obtain from the ikan bilis trawlers. The fishes caught there can be GT, sakai, queenfish, chermin, plenty of chincharu (stiff t...

I am the one driving from Sin to before lumut as it highway. Before exit to lumut my friends took over as he know lumut abit.
The drive should only take 7hrs but we have 4 stops.
We manage to find a lobang for a trip to a Kelong there for on RM30 per pax. Will try it next trip.

Great rod for light jigging but ring is too small as we needed to use 80lbs leader. With FG knot it still a bit problem to go thru the tip.
Other than that a great value rod. This is the PE 0.8-1.5.

Looks like a fun and light trip(except the 9 hour drive :p ), good place to hone your jigging techniques. :nod: Thanks for sharing the catch report, the video is nicely done as well. Is that a salty fighter you're using for this trip? The one that landed the small GT is the new salty chief. I am us...

This is our 1st expedition trip to Lumut & Pulau Sembilan. Only 3 kakis for this trip and only 2 drive. 9 hour drive after a full day work.
