Ah Poh Fishing ~ 38Kg Grouper landed

Post by dBs™ »

Yes ... pic is small ... but it's real !
38Kg mama grouper landed yesterday by kakis from Ah Poh Fishing.

This is really exciting news
How can I not share it with everyone here in HLF.
38Kg grouper in Singapore's water . :thumbsup:

It's written in Ah Poh's FB ... bait used was a flower crab ! :shocked:

We do use kelong chi, tor sat or catfish as bait to "hoot" mama grouper in Malaysia waters.
Never tried this bait in our local waters before though ...
Mayb it's time to give it a try ?

Hurry hurry ... let's go fishing with Ah Poh . :lol:

Wow ... 10Kg+ is huge !
Landed on jig some more ... must be really exciting the moment it took the jig.
That's the moment all anglers are waiting for ... indescribably feeling. :thumbsup:

Yes, I've been on his boat before. I liked fishing on his smaller boat though, too bad he doesn't use it anymore save for ferrying anglers to his big boat. :lol:
