10.10.10

Post by dBs™ »

On the 10th Day of October in the year 2010 ...
A group of 10 anglers set off on SC3188J with uncle Fong ... what awaits us ?
Let's find out ... :D

Image

A warm handshake and a big smile, we have found a group of young kakis ~
Full of excitement and awaiting to wet their line to bring up biggies from the enchanted Changi Waters ! :lol:


Image

Image

This day is made even more special for me coz it's exactly one year that we have adopted Scott.
I remembered clearly how excited I was awaiting his arrival last October.
How time flies ... a year has passed.
Scott is such a darling to have and he has brought us joy and happiness.

He has accompanied us on several fishing trips by now ...
So how can we not have them with us on this special day ~ :cake:


Image

Just curious what was on their mind at that moment ... ?
What will I catch ?
We'll find out .... soon ! :p

Image

2Kg of live prawns and 10 anglers ... all eager to land the first catch of the day.
Guess who landed the first catch ?

Image

Yes ... it's the xmm ( xiao mei mei )
Her first LONG fish of the day ! LOL !!! ::x:
Now I guess she won't like to eat unagi with rice anymore ~ bwhahahaha :lol: :lol: :lol:

Catch was zero all the way from one spot to another ...
Uncle Fong made several spot changes and yet nothing was caught.
Sun was scotching hot ...
I was joking to the boys we will have a 全虾宴!
Steamed prawns, fried prawns, sambal prawns and drunken prawns 0.o
It was really to my amazement that at the end of the day, all the prawns were used up.
NO PRAWNS TO EAT lah .... :shocked:

Uncle Fong managed to dig a parrot out after mid day.
Everyone started to pay more attention and excitedly awaits the next catch...
It was Simon who became the next lucky one to land a snapper.
After that ... all was quiet again ... :sweatdrop:


Image


Image


Simon is not a man of many words ...
But when he is fishing .. he is a joker !
You will never be bored fishing with him and he is also my best model when I needed a special pic to post. :nod:

The day pass with most of us joking and toying around with my two boys. lol !
The fish must have attend school and knew that as long as they keep their mouth shut ... they are safe ! hahaha

It was close to evening and uncle Fong ordered all of us to come into the cabin,
closed the window, sit sit and get ready to sleep !
I knew deep inside ... he trying his last effort to find the fish hideouts.
He speeded all the way back somewhere close to the ferry terminal ...

This is it he said ... Chermin time.
And he was right !
Simon caught one ... all cheered happy and loud.
Though it's not big but it's a long awaited Chermin.
I was worried the chermin won;t be enough for 10 hungry anglers,
Vidic made the day by bringing up a BIG PIECE OF MIRROR on the dinner table !
Tamban became the next lucky, the one and only newbies who caught a nice piece of mirror too. :thumbsup:

So these are the bait stealer who were responsible for stealing all our delicious prawns ! :mad:


Image

Uncle Fong seems to enjoy playing with Junior ... :)


Image


Image

Overall catch of the day ... not a very good catch but we have a decent size threadfin, a snapper, a parrot ...
three pieces of shiny mirrors ...we have quality catch liao lor.

Vidic emerged the winner of the trip with the best and biggest catch, a threadfin and Chermin. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:


Image

A group photo taken at the end of the day at the Ferry Terminal.

Next proceed to the restaurant to eat the Chermin fresh from the sea ~ :drool:


Image

A big thanks to all who spend a wonderful and fun day out with us on SC3188J.
For those who was unable to join us fishing, catch is bad ... ;)
For those who did not join us for dinner, Chermin tasted great ! :drool:
A nice surprise from Woofie and Oinky and for joining us for dinner. :cake:

Thank you ! 谢谢你们!

First Chermin of the Day by Simon !
Almost thought had to cut the Chermin into 10 shares .... lol !





Vidic biggie Chermin ... put a smile on everyone !
Thanks for the Chermin of course it ended on the dinner table ! Yum yum ....





The lucky newbie ~ Tamban caught a Chermin !
Alleycat must be really proud of you ... he bet on you to win ! :shh:






Here's another Chermin ...but ...not from us.
It's a Sunday and most of the Changi boatmen were out ...so it's kinda pack out there.
Here's one Chermin from Ah Chai's boat.

What a perfect 10 fishing trip. :shocked: I see quite a few new faces, I can finally put those these faces to the nicks in the forum. :lol: It's a learning experience for the first timers, don't be discouraged if you didn't land anything. :nod: Hope you got the feel of boat fishing and learn the little tricks people do onboard. ;) Vidic seems to take the trophy for the day, good for him. :beer:

And not to forget, a happy birthday to dBs and Scott! :gift: :cake: :gift:

Anyway, thanks to dBs for organising this trip ~ I enjoyed it very much ~ :D Finally, my dry spell is over and got some decent catch from the water from the "east", haha, u know it. And yes, this is my first threadfin !!! :D :D :D

Also thanks to Simon & dBs for treating us to a sumptuous dinner, couldn't have much time to thank you after the dinner. For those who were there, i bet u couldn't much agreed that it was a fantastic one, for those who were not, i bet their saliva are drooling all over by now. :p
SPOILER
Peace must be one of them ! ::x:
For those who have not got anything, don't be dejected, keep trying and u'll get one, perhaps a bigger, larger one. :nod: After all, its just Singapore waters ~ :)

Lastly,
Happy Birthday dBs & Scott !! ~

monkey you are wrong ....

Vidic gone the most envy stares and a good sayang on the head !
Almost wanted to plant a kiss on him coz we almost thought had to cut the small Chermin
caught earlier on by Simon into 10 little shares ... lol !
And I knew I always make too much noise when ever a fish is to be landed ...
So i was actually trying very hard to control myself to shut up ! ::x:
More over ... I was filming that clip from the small window pane with half my body out,
Coz Vidic was too tall and I could not get a good view ! :lol:

Well said Vidic and thanks for the well wishes too.
Finally you broke your dry spell in Changi.
Now there is a very strong force drawing you back to Changi waters.
Else I would think you will never want to fish in Changi waters any more .... hahahaha

It is indeed a very fun filled trip despite the low quantity catch with 10 anglers !
At least we have quality fishes and all get to taste it fresh from the sea.
Too bad Tamban couldn't join us for the dinner ...
But he got to bring back his prize catch and share it with his family.

Once again, thank you everyone ! :rose:

Hi chanjwm ... glad to have you with us and hope you enjoyed the experience of offshore fishing.

Don't be disappointed coz I also didn't catch anything too ! ::x:

Sometimes ... even very experience anglers can go empty handed for several trips before they break their egg
and land something decent ! :lol:

I am not joking ... it's true !
Just ask Vidic. ::x:

Yes dBs, i agree, when we are out, just enjoy the company, the laughter, the scenery, and be in a place where u are away from the bustling & hectic lifestyle in Singapore, be it studies or work, so relaxing ~ :p . To me to have a notable catch a not is a bonus, be it off or inshore, hehe. :D So next time when you are fishing, try to joke and mingle around and enjoy urself, you'll never know when a big fish will take ur line out for a run ~ *zzzt *zzzzztttttttt*** , might be the next sec ! where u are holding ur rod with ur weaker hand and almost donate ur tackle to the sea. :D

So when is the next trip ? :lol:

Btw, which one ish chanjwm ? ::x: lol...

Good question ! I didn't dare to ask ... lol !

If you notice the cr I did with little boys and girls, has no name to it ...
Coz I didn't get the name of two ... ::x:

Let's see ... we have Merv aka Beany ...
Tamban the lucky newbie.
James and one of his friend Steven.
No favoritism coz he happens to share the same name as Mr Banzai . :p
So who is the other two ah ?
