16th Oct 09 Kayak Fishing at ECP

October is a rainy month and its quite hard to have a good fishing day for me. Morning was raining heavily at my place and i was uncertain if i could go for a fishing trip. In the end, i decided to give a try in the afternoon praying hard that weather will be good. In this trip, Yip CK, my Secondary school fishing buddy which i have known for many years will be joining me on this trip.


Setting up the battleship

On my arrival to ECP at 1230pm, the weather was pretty hot and sunny. We are pretty lucky that we are able to do our Kayak fishing in the afternoon as the forecast predicted that the weather will not be favorable for the whole day.

What a hot weather!

Yip who is a first timer on Kayak fishing was impressed with the AEC and was quite confident fishing on this kayak. For the whole afternoon, my Garmin fish finder was reading many fish underneath the Kayak but the fish was not biting at all. We can see many fish but luck is not with us on this trip.

At around 4:00pm, the fish started to bite and we managed to catch some blue-lined hinder and a Parrot fish. At least they are some action on this trip and Yip was enjoying it a lot.


A nice Parrot for Yip

Time to packed up

Sadly, not much action for us on this trip but at least, we can fish happily for a few hours with pretty good weather. Will be going for my 4D3N Sabah offshore fishing next week and hope i can have good action by then. :P
