Assalamualaikum all,

This trip were unplanned where we were targeting snakehead at first but looking at the weather it seems to be a good time for fishing hampala.. hehe so we decided to go to the barb spot and cast there. when we reached there the water were very promising and the weather were a little bit rainy. i cast my softbait at first and got a 2 hookup, one were small and the other manage to snap my 15 lbs line! it must been huge! malung cast at another spot not far from me and all of the sudden he shouted my name and i rushed towards him and shockingly he caught a hampala barb weighting 500gm using a spinner frog?? after we took a picture i decided to change to a topwater lure and cast to malung spot. i received 4 misses there! aghhh and after i changed to rapala skitter pop i hookup a barb weighting 400 gm! yeah!! malung received 3 hits in a row that time! it was a very enjoyable fishing trip and hope there will be another time like this in future.

Till Next time and stay tuned!
