Whenever I’m not going for any fishing trips. I would take my car, go for a spins and look for potential wild fishing spots for wild toman & sebarau around the countryside..
This particular fishing location , not far from bkk (250km -2.5hr drive) has many sebarau. For many fans of sebarau (jungle perch)anglers - This catch report will be a delight for you.
I landed some 20 sebarau fishes and missed a dozen more , all landed on my topwater lures. The said location has many seasweeds thus usage of those deep diver lures & spoon is out of the question.
Follow me to the adventure of wild fishing trip for sebarau (jungle perch) in Thailand.
All my tackles and fishing stuffs packed into my car.
In order to catch the first light… I left my house at 1.30am.
Stopover at this 24HR Mac Donald for a fast breakfast before I continue my journey..
Topup my gas at the gas station..
As usual , I brought along my Daiwa Ryoga and Zillion setups.
I won’t be using my Ryoga as it abit overkills for sebarau.My closest will be my Daiwa Zillion in which I can cast very far…
I would suggest PE 1-2(power pro) for lure fishing with super llight tackle. It will be shiok when the sebarau fish take your topwater lure.Zzzzzzzzzzzz non stop… haha !!
My boatman already standby and ready for me when I arrive..
The beautiful scenery…
In the wee morning, we’ll be casting and luring around those what we called the small islands. Before the first lights, that when the sebarau will be resting and hidding just beneath the seasweeds.
At time, we need to beach the boat on the small island and cast from inland.
The beauty of mother nature…
I just can resist my love for Wild Fishing in Thailand !!!
Just like my shirt logo- ‘NO LIMIT’ when you come fishing in the wild.You just have to work hard and you’ll be rewarded.
Hmm… thinking of getting a sebarau logo T- Shirt printed … keke !!!
Finally something of a decent size - 1.52KG sebarau.
The ‘take’ was so loud and strong. Initially I though a toman whacked my lure instead of sebarau . haha !!
