It was quite a while i have not updated my blog due to my work commitment and i'm still in Taiwan doing my Training. Since it was a Typhoon-Fanapi day and i'm not able to travel around Taiwan, i might as well do some updating of my trip which i did 2 months back.
On 4th of July is the day where the many Kayak-fishing Kakis gathered to have some fishing fun and most importantly get to know each other as well as sharing our fishing experience. Since, there is quite a number of Kayak fishing guys attending this trip, our organizer Ian and Melvin decided to have a small competition and also a BBQ after the trip at Pasir Ris Park.

Heading to our first fishing spot
As I was quite tired with the paddling against the current, I decided to head back just before 3pm in the afternoon. At around 4pm, most of the guys headed back and call it a day. The champion for this trip is Ah boon who had caught 2 seabass (Siakap) and a threadfin salmon and the runner up got a Siakap as well and a red snapper (Ang chor). As for me, I have only caught a catfish and a cuttlefish. Seriously, it was a pretty poor fishing result for me on that day.
Yes, back to the shore

Overall all, it was a fun and good trip with wonderful fishing mates. Besides, after the fishing, we had a BBQ session with all the kakis whom had made this Kayak-fishing gathering session so interested and fun. All the guys really enjoyed and satisfied with the trip and were looking forward for a next round of gathering soon.
A very successful Kayak-Fishing Gathering trip for all
