The scenes we encountered along the way....... paddy fields, paddy fields and more paddy fields..... We stopped by a road side stall for our lunch....... BUT the food here is H O R R I B L E !!!Finally, Pantabagan Lake, Luzon Philippines, what a beautiful big reservoir......... Local Bassers keep their bass boats in abundance here................
Preparing to lower our bass boat into the lake.........
In general, this lake is very big and during this time of the season, the water level is very low resulting in structures appearing on land instead of water and making the ideal fishing points not being there anymore...... And resulting in fishes very hard to find...... Oh my first Large Mouth Bass - my precious one! My Macau friend - Siu Keong, caught his first bass too.......Oh my oh my.... a sized up for Siu Keong......
on our way out to a local town, we tried local soya curd sold by this peddler - Good! yummm yummm!........
A local fish seller, you can find a lot of Large Mouth Bass caught and selling here.......
Hope this Large Mouth Bass will not be extinct too soon from this activity........

Found a Pandora fruit,......heard that this fruit can cure many sickness.........Anyone out there know anything about this???? Dinner time! Trying out a local favourite food called BALUT and it is actually a boiled, fertilized egg, a popular food in the Philippines........It does not really taste that bad BUT it sure looks gross.......
Second day........
Even in the early morning, the wind was gusting strongly.........Today morning, everyone landed their fish........
Again, the wind was gusting strrongly in the afternoon.......and we had to call it in early.......
Third day.........
We tried fishing behind the mountain because it is not that windy here BUT there were no fish present...... Sighhhhh!
Yet again, we had to called in early. Decided to venture for local food (Large Mounth Bass - grilled style)Well, local food is nothing to shout about.......Last day......... Today the weather was kind to us but we only had half a day's time for fishing because we need to travel back to Clark to catch our flight next day early morning...... Sighhhhhh!Today was perfect weather for fishing....... We finally enjoyed ourselves immensely with our catches........Yeah! This is BASS FISHING alright!!!............
