A Short Trip to Royal Belum Valley

Royal Belum Valley Rainforest Reserve, a 5 hours drive from from KL..... A friend of mine has booked a 3D2N Boathouse Fishing Tour to the interior of Belum Valley for his company Year End Vacation 2011..... Hoe and myself joined him for the trip....
Reaching there in the morning, and immediately loading goods on to the Boathouse at the Banding Jetty.....
Heading to the interior of The Royal Belum Rainforest Jungle....
The boathouse cabin and the small stow away fishing boat.....
Simple lunch before we started fishing.....                                                                                           
Malay food with potato curry and fresh vegetable.....
Party beer - a neccessity                                                                                                                  
Mooring the Boathouse at a better location so that everyone can find their way back to the boathouse easily after fishing.....
Hoe and I started our fishing right after lunch........
We had tried a few areas but it was not promissing.....                                                                           
 Hoe's first fish, a Jungle Perch or SEBARAU as the locals called it.....
Oh yes! a good size Giant Snakehead (Toman) for me...... Yeah!
Wow! Look at the heavily injured bait with teeth marks all over it....
There were no sign of any more fish after my last caught Toman...... We went back to the boathouse to get some rest... The next morning, we departed early right after a simple meal of breakfast......
       Here  we go.....                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
Easy job for Hoe, a morning kiss from a young Sebarau......
Oic! A second Sebarau.......                                                                                                         
We went deeper to look for bigger fish,.... but the water rose so high resulting it hard to locate fishes. Most of the fishes had gone further into the flooded forest looking for food....

Look at my catch, a very young Toman.... where is the the biggie? Sigh.....!
Beautiful place it is.....
But, I only managed to catch young Tomans......

Another young guy......
Oh no! This is even smaller,.... Ahhhh where is the big Toman..... Come on, guys....!

A funny final tally for us..... Hoe landed no more than 6 Sebaraus and 0 Toman,... and as for myself, there was 0 Sebarau and 5 Tomans... Resulting to be Sebarau Hoe and Toman Loong??

Peacock Bass Game Fishing

After the first visit with Noni a week ago, with that anomalous good result..... Hoe wants me to go back again for some video clip shooting on the upcoming promotion.....
Today, I don't see any Toman around.... and the result for Peacock Bass was just so so..... (Not Good at all)
All skinny fellas.....
Well, luck came to Hoe.... a 50cm up whopper was landed with his top water popper....
Cheers! Good catch!...
And for me, I only managed to land one nearly 50cm up biggie.....
Thanks for entertaining me.....
It was not as good as last week's result, well as you know there are no guarantee catches in fishing.....
We call it a day before the heavy rain fell......

Peacock Bassing over the weekend

Air Kuning Peacock Bass Game again after a longgg absence,...This time Noni and me head out there for some new lures testing......
 The first peacock Bass from Noni......
The result of top water lure BAKKUSHIN PENCIL from Drunckrazy(酔狂) was astonishing.......
 Air Kuning's Toman is no less a fighter than Ayer Ganda's........said Noni.
 Wow! A second Toman for Noni...... You got the luck man!! 
 Beautiful colours it is.......
 Poor result for me, only a small Haruan caught in that morning.......
 What a lucky day,....plenty of 50cm up Peacock Bass....... 
 Plenty of bites through out the afternoon too......
  A 50cm up again.... Yippee!!
 Look at Peacock King and his crown......
 Beautiful spot......
 But only caught some small PB.....
 A Toman again for Noni with the BAKKUSHIN PENCIL from Drunckrazy(酔狂).... Congrats!!
 Wooo! Nice 50cm up again..... YES!! 
 Double whammy..... 

Bye bye! See you next time....... Hope you get more bigger, he he he!!
