Ayer Ganda,... one of my favourite places to fish for Giant snakehead (Toman)..... slow sunrise in the morning with cooling breeze around the water has welcomed me to return to this water....
This time a couple from France,.. Julien and his wife Magdalina had come for the Toman challenge...
Toman fishing in Malaysia is not an easy game for a beginner who is not so experienced in lure casting method.... Normally the first day is just a warm up practice for the first timer, but some will have beginner's luck to start with.......
A hot afternoon break under the shade of the rubber trees.....
Curiosity has brought Magdalina scouring around the rubber tree plantation....
Sight fishing Toman is kind of a waiting game also,... where by you have to get ready to cast a lure to a fish at anytime... and patiently wait for the Toman to surface for air... Of course a lightning fast cast a lure into it's striking zone requires a hell of a casting skill....
And it is a total satisfaction once you really catch it....
Toman fishing is a very challenging fishing game,... patience, fast casting and accuracy are the 3 most essential method ingredient of all.... Besides that you need to fight the powerful Toman out from it's refuge near the structures....
Beautiful catches from Julien during the trip......
Hope they will be back soon for another exciting escapade.....
