Joined my new group of kakis from the last Kuching trip to fish at Gelang Patah on board Mackerel Hunter. Target fish is the Kurau aka Threadfin Salmon.
Early morning transport and we were in the boat by 8am.
Fished around some structures for baitfish and some kakis ended up hooking into a few Queenfish.
Boatman caught a small Tenggiri Papan aka Spotted Mackerel on live bait.
After lunch then I finally managed to catch something. The familiar Chao Xi aka Sickle Fish.
Next we anchored near some large tankers and started bottom fishing. Fish took my live prawn and sped away! Fish ON! Slowly reeled the fella back and it turned out to be another familiar fish, Kaci aka Painted Sweetlips.
We moved to another anchored vessel and dropped our baits. Boatman managed to hook up a pretty good sized Kurau. Then another 2 kakis hooked up too! Pretty good fight from the looks of it!
The Kurau didn't managed to find my hooks so it was not to be. Will be back for another shot!
