Was at labrador park to try out a couple of things
firstly egging,
this ended badly
lets just say i had one egi and it got caught in rocks
Then i intended to target some rabbitfish, however nothing showed up for well 5min HAHA
patience......patience....
After seeing Des T CR on all the halfbeak, i also want to try
bait was bread on a float with a foot length of leader 20lb
i dun know anything about halfbeak fishing so used whatever i had,
tackle was as light as i had tamban fishing rod with budget daiwa reel
So decided cast out and then i remembered sunglasses really help so put on already can see water clearly
cast a couple of metres in front of me and bam i got a Bite!!!!
sry la no hookup
anyway cast few more times finally hook up my first ever HALFBEAK!!!
hehe i was so excited XD
In a matter of like 10 min hook up another two! Like so easy like that haha
No.... it was terrible hard and took lots of patience
It wasant much bringing home only 3 as the tide went down really fast and then it kinda started raining so no choice pack up even though halfbeaks were still biting
Sooo final results bring back 3
Will be Back for more
how to cook this fish can sashimi haha??

Re: Halfbeaks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats of landing your first halfbeaks, they're fun to catch with added thrill in sighting for them. Yeah, a pair of polaroid sunglasses really helps to spot them as it filters away the water reflection. Do also look out for the other dominant halfbeak species; the ones with black dot/bars on their body. Good hunting!

Re: Halfbeaks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to do most of the handlining from shore but fishing spots are dwindling. I go on boat fishing once in a while, shore fishing can still be fun if you just want to go to the seaside to chill. :P
