Managed to squeeze some time in the morning for fishing a few days ago hehe.
Reached spot around 6 am, incoming tide. Immediately whipped out sabiki and jigged up some tambans for live bait. On my very first cast, landed a 6 inch talang queenfish, 5 inch bumpnose trevally AND a juvenile Spanish mackerel! Wow good vibes
Another rod cast with prawn meat on size 1 hooks... So total 3 rods.
Bait fish were plenty, managed to hook up easily over 40 tambans 40 kuning This was the total baitfish brought back for storage
Prawn rod suddenly took a huge bend, rod fell onto the floor. Fish on! Fight half way, it suddenly dash and... Sangkot. Couldn't get it out after that...
Around 10+ am baitfish were starting to quieten down. Decided to hook small prawn meat onto tamban hooks try my luck.
Haven't even reach the bottem, fish on! Landed my very first sweet potato hehe. Cast again, another immediate hook up! This one felt heavier, and with one quick dash... Hook straightened. Afterwards they didn't seem to bite anymore haiz. Landed one butterfly whiptail bream that took my hook too deep... alamak die for no reason.
Around 12, started to pack up, when tamban hooks with prawn produced another hookup! Good fight on ultra light hehe. Landed my very first golden trevally.
Live bait produced nothing at all which seemed quite unreasonable... No bites or anything. Used LSBF and hooked fish sideways through nostril. Is there a better method to be used?
