Got a chance to be invited by company's counter part to go fishing in Yogyakarta Indonesia. Some pictures to share:
Oh the teeth is so strong that I had a couple of broken hooks after setting them.

Re: Fishing in Yogyakarta
Wow, those are Pacu right? They look pretty big and judging from your 'decapitated' hook, the fish must have packed a big punch. It's awesome that your company organizes such an event for you guys, are they still hiring?
Thanks for the pictures and what bait is that they are using?

Fishing in Yogyakarta
Yes that's a Pacu they call it ikan bawal direct translation master pomfret. That day the weight range from 4 - 10 kg was released. The sub 5 kg range can even jump to throw hooks just like the KBL. Too bad didn't have any chance to take more pictures as I was busy hooking up and fighting....
