Drummm roll please.I wonder if I’m cursed from fishing in Empangan Air Kuning. What a day. One of the worst day of fishing in my life.Sit back and enjoy the plot unfolding. We hit the spot at 7am. No1 was around and it was a dam beautiful Sunday morning. We set-up at the platform hut oh the left.As usual i was the first one 2 unload and cast out.My bait was already out within minutes.
That’s when it all started. First was my BC line snapped when i tried to cast out my Spoon and my watching new spoon flying to its final resting place 50 yards away.So I had to rest-up my BC again.Due to my own fault my car keys dropped into the dam while I tried to look for my Siwels in my lure bag.Again while i was cursing my luck and looking at where it dropped, my karma took another turn. Again due to my own smartness again,My lucky (not so lucky anymore) rod launched itself into the dam. Its just fly out and i was helplessly watching it swim away. In stead of doing fishing. Satish and Startrec was trying to fishing my gear out. (its was my favorite and longest serving set up,with over 100’s of fish landed..hmmm since I am telling the story ,its was more then 1000++ fish landed with it).
I was doing the next practical thing to do,strip down to my boxers. (and yes,thank god no1 was around). It was not a pleasant site to see, dark skinned tattooed,big belly-ed hairy Indian guy on a tight colorful flowery boxer jumping into the dam to retrive the car keys. It was chest deep water with knee deep mud. I was only able to feel for the keys using my feet. After 20minuts on navigating through thick mud, while avoiding tangled fishing lines and potential rusty hooked I gave up.
So I lost my car keys, my lucky set and dignity all in one day within 20minutes of fishing there.So I continued bottom fishing with my BC as they guys also give-up fishing my rod out)
Lucky me I had a Spare set up keys on my dash board and Nick Raimi was kinda enough to help out using his perfected car jacking skills to get into my car (he claims that is not his full time job but i bet if he ever thinks of changing his career,his skills will take his a long way:P).
Total catch, myself one juvi pacu landed, satish with even more smaller pacu landed ,1 pacu bigger then his motorbike lucut due to straiten hook and wesley managed to tanguk 3 tiny microscopic prawns. We call it a day at at 1 pm.
I thought that’s it. Just got a text from wesley that i dropped my watch when I drop them at his place and something ran over it. Hye look at the bright side,its was still working. I was typing this when I got home about 2pm,instead of copy this story to be posted on MFN, I accidentally hit space bar and now I’m re typing the whole story.
Well,A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work.
Memories like this will last for a lifetime and its even batter when you and your buddies can laugh about it in many many years to come..[:o)]
(RR,i know u going 2 blast me for jumping into the water[:(!])
