Hi patrick, heres my answers to your question,
1. FW3 - Last remembered, it should be operating from 7pm-7am during weekdays and 24/7 during weekends. Cost is $30 for 12hrs, CNR. Correct me if i'm wrong :p Fishing paradise - you can look at their charges here
2. I believe both have the same catch rate, u need to know where are the home of the fishes :p The only difference i guess fishing paradise might have more varieties.
3. lsbf works for me, you could give it a try
4. 4000 spin with 30lbs braided might be a little too big, but u can still use them. Normally, ppl would use luring setup for ponds, lets say 4-12lbs rod with 500 - 2000 daiwa reel with 10-20lbs. Its lighter and u'll enjoy the fight more as u have a hard time pulling them back ::x: .

A packet of chicken liver for $2 is available at the payment counter at fw3. Its good enough :p Less u want to aim other fishes like kbl, u might need to get live prawns/prawn bits/squid :p Hotdog/bread/live fishes are also commonly used too, but i rather eat it. Hotdog wrapped with bread? :lol:

Hi weaver, yes u can use live bait. Chicken liver, hotdogs, squid or filet kembong or kunning are some of the common baits used.

Light tackle is good,but try not to allow to fish to tangle with other anglers fishing lines,that would cause.....problems...for you and fish.
Urrrgh, no time to fish now~
