Nice layout of the pond at Bishan
Have not been Prawning for many months when my good friend pop out a question asking me to join him at Bishan Park. This friend of mine, since i know him in Polytechnic never ever like such kind of hobby at all and hearing that he is interested to learn, i'm very much willing to share and teach him a few trick on this and i'm not bullshitting..hahahaa :) Since he doesn't want me to review his name in my blog, i'm ok with it cos he is not suppose to come out of his house...hahahaaa!!!
Within an hour catch
We took our lunch at Toa Payoh and headed to Bishan at ard 2pm. Luckily, not much people around since it is a weekday and it has been raining throughout the day. Actually, on his last prawning trip which is few months ago, he and his wife togther with their colleague tried out prawning here and it was not promising with only 6 prawns caught. To be truthful, i can say that prawning need skill and patience and it is not so easy at all. If you're bringing your girlfriend to prawning and you wanna impress her, do brush up the prawning skill or you will be in deep deep trouble.....heheheheee!!!
Need more to impress the girls
Nice size for my dinner
Total catch for us...40pcs
With my guidance, this friend of mine finally get to know what Prawning is all about. Amazingly, he is able to master the skill pretty fast and managed to catch quite a lot of prawn all by himself. For me, it was a fruitful prawning as well and in total, we caught around 40pcs in 2hrs.
Washing up the prawns with Salt
Its BBQ time..yummy!!!
Do you wanna have some for dinner?
Since, we do not want to bag the prawn home, my friend suggested to BBQ it on the spot. Its a first time for me and It was really nice trying out the fresh BBQ prawn and watching people trying their 101 ways in catching the prawn. On my future prawning trip, will likely to bring the Soya sauce,chilli and fresh lime for my BBQ prawn and a few cans of beer to have my maximum enjoyment. Yummy....!!!
