Hi QT I'm planing a inshore fishing trip this Fri day from midnite to Sat evening and next week Fri 16th March to 17th March same time do pm me if u wanna join.....

Location this week Pasir Ris Park and next week West Coast Park....

U hv receive a pm from me...

Fishing kaki, i will be free to fish this coming 16th or 17th March.Currently hooked on jigging Tamban.If you want to join me next week at bedok jetty let me know.Dont worry about the Tamban hoohs as there is always a uncle selling "Tamban Hood" or "Tamban Hoot" which ever sounds like.Its priced at $5 for 4 packs.Not a very good one but good for reborn again newbies like me

It's actually tamban hooks, I've personally never bought one from them but I've seen people using Jepun's tamban hooks that were very effective. Better than the ones I tie myself.

haha sorry stout, 16th is gf birthday. if i go fish u will catch my dead body in the water on the 17th. haha.

peace: wah u hardcore sia tie your own tiny hooks. ive bought the hook that the uncle sell. actually very effective. every cast i get at least 1 tamban if i cast into the swarm.

I tie my own as I can use hooks of my preference, I need them to be small enough to catch tambans and kunnings but at the same time strong enough to withstand a run from yellowtails. Quality hooks last a bit longer too but they're expensive.

in your opinion whats a good hook size for tambans? i keep getting size 4 at tackle shops cause they are the smallest but cant seem to hook them properly

For tambans alone, size 4 is probably the best. Their mouth are actually quite big when they extemd out their jaw, even larger sized hooks are okay. But if you're also expecting other types of fishes like large selars, yellowtails or "orh kha hia" then 6-8 is recommended. Tambans' mouth gets torn fairly easy and some will drop back before you can land them, it's quite normal and not really the hooks' fault.

I personally use this hook to tie for general bait jigging.

upps for peace who replied at 4am >:D

yah man. all my qn answered so early. peace is early bird. sure catch the fish.
see u tmr tambans!

Good luck on your fishing trip tomorrow guys, the tide looks good!
