Assalamualaikum viewers and readers.
Me, izzat and ali (k2g Crew) were hunting hampala barb on saturday morning. we were using light tackles and most of us got misses from the barb. it was very frenzy that cool morning but as the sun were rising up. the barb weren't hitting anymore. so we decided to call it a day :)
my first Hampala catch on 4 lbs line. even thought it was small but it was fun! hehe
i caught 2 hampala that day but i only manage to take only 1 picture..
This afternoon i went to the Warzone, caught only one cod and 1 fish managed to dragged my cardiff like hell! even with the drag set is at its maximum, my cardiff were not able to withstand the pulling force of the fish and lastly my line broke and left me with questions.. haha i think it was a 3-4 kg grouper.. or a big jack. i don't know but sure it was a hell of a fight! i'll get you next time!
The only estuary cod i managed to catch this afternoon.. using medium tackle. mainline 10 lbs to leader 15 lbs, using berkley gulp alive!
After the casting session at warzone, i went home and change my gear and targeting some smallies. At first i was targeting talapia with Storm Grasshopper, but none of the fish were biting the lures, so i decided to change to my favorite echogear shrimp. i caught one tarpon and decided to let it go without taking picture. playing with tarpon with UL tackle was a very exiting experi
ence. You can feel it pulling it and see it flying with your mini lures. after a few cast i was hit by a strong strike and for sure i wasn't expecting anything but a decent size tarpon. but after i pull out the fish to the land. i was surprise that it was a juvenile barra! haha at last i renewed my barra licence eventhough it was a small one. hehe.
My first barra this year weighting only 100gm i guess. using a 4 lbs line (direct) and echogear shrimp lure. SUGOI!!
after taking the picture. i decided to cast again at the same spot. and with only one cast. BOOM! another barra took my lure and dragging my Cardiff Area! These barra were jumping everywhere.
after a few minutes of fight. i landed the barra and guessing it was only 300gm or less hehe.
The biggest catch of the day! Barramundi. luckily the owner hook of the echogear were penetrating solidly at its mouth. if not i wont be able to take this picture hehe.
and not to forget....
HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY TO THE IZZAT. WISH YOU A SUCCESSFUL LIFE, HAPPINESS, LUCK AND MORE CATCHES!!!
TILL NEXT TIME AND ASSALAMUALAIKUM....
