The northern region’s LKGers(me,Bowjenk,Iwan(Bowjenk’s friend),Takin and Tok Dolah) first meet up at Tok Dolah’s place at 2.45pm after they performed the Friday prayers.3.00pm we started to leave Penang and soon we picked up Are-Bear from his place at Seberang.
We traveled like there’s no tomorrow and then meeting up with a few other participants(Akashah,Peggy,Din Idola etc) of the trip at Simpang Pulai at around 8(not too sure bout the location and time as i was busy sleeping [:p] )
Along the way,we stopped by the highway to take pictures of a farm which grows some sort of vegetable.The scenery was awesome!
Many took the opportunity to stretch their legs and to have a ciggie break.
We continued our journey after 30minutes of break and then we soon stopped by at a petrol station during the wee hours in the morning.Most of the dudes took this opportunity to take a nap while waiting for others to arrive.Arin and co soon met up with us at the petrol station and we continued our never ending journey again.
Then at around 6something,we stopped by a kopitiam to have our breakfast and there is where we met the rest of the PAW boys.Picture above showing Chef Sahiran who is a superb cook that could easily match Chef Wan’s ability.Kick butt sebarau asam pedas!Yummy! [^]
2 hours later or so,we finally arrived at the entrance of kenyir
Everyone took hell loads of pictures
The signing in
ALL BOARD!!!Loading time…
Our ride to our destination took us around 3-4 hours.At the mean time,many took the opportunity to catch up with old buddies or share their fishing Bible teachings [:D]
We started fishing at 3pm and the sceneries of Kenyir were simply breath taking!
I was on the same boat with Rookie Boatman Iwan and The Ever-Humble-And-Helpful-Human-Minn-Kota Bowjenk.First cast,first sebarau!The sebaraus here fights as though they were on steroids and made me think it was a toman!yozuri altima did the trick.
On TD7 GFR
Bowjenk suggested us to head back to the mother boat as it’s already time for dinner.I checked my watch,it was 640pm.remembered otai-otais’ advice on using poppers during early in the morning or late in the evening.Wasted no time,cast in…BOOM!Juvenile toman on first cast.First career toman on skitter pop clown colour and soon we head back to the mother boat
Was transported to sit in the long boat with other PAW boys as the boat i sat in yesterday was rather small and fearing water could come from the side of the boat.Landed this sebbie with a TD7 Fire Tiger
Tried the altima but no response the whole day,switched back to the GFR,had a hook on and the sebbie was safely landed.
My boatman(Abu Gangsta) on day 2 with his toman on Shad Rap Gold Fish.
And me with the masterpiece of the trip.A KELISA on TD7 Fire Tiger!what the heck?dont kelisa feed on top water?what i did the other day was,i saw a nice location to cast to.i cast,i cranked once and BANG!hook on!we didn know it was a kelisa until it started jumping like a tarpon.Awesome fighting skills.I think i must have casted right above the kelisa’s head which triggered its instinct to whack.Who cares?WOOHOOOOO!
Beautiful fish…released safely and unharmed…
Day 3 - I was on the same boat with Tekong Terhebat Akashah,Din Idola,Dellipo and Sham(Akapiman’s husband).
Dellipo and his fish…
Double Hook-Up!!!
The captor and the captive
Left on Kenyir on Tuesday.Mother boat reached shore at 12.30pm.left finally we reached penang at 1.30am exhausted but we definitely brought back plenty of sweet memories from this trip
Conclusion : Catch rate was awesome.Averaging 8 fish per person.Personally landed 8 sebbies,1 juvie toman and 1 kelisa(only kelisa landed during the trip [:p])Sadly no badongs were landed by the participants.
