From left to right: Desmond with a highly-prized 2.5 kg Threadfin Salmon or Kurau and an assortment of fish; Just the usual overnight Northeast stuff like Barras, Mangrove Jacks, Snapper and Garoupa; Daniel with a dawn Garoupa; Chermin are rarely caught at night, but this one went against the norm; Sunset Sweetlip make a perfect calm evening; Des and me back at the boatel in the morning with plenty of good-sized Garoupa from 1 kg - 3 kg, and a Barra to top it off.
People often ask me whether fish bite at night...
... "What do you think?" I would reply. Well they obviously do. But sometimes I have had to wait the whole night at a spot without a single bite and then suddenly, as the sun appears, WHAM WHAM WHAM, the bites start coming incessantly, at that very same spot!But at other times, I have had to wait the whole hot day without a bite, and when the sun goes down, POW!!! a monster shows up.
What can I say? Well some spots do fire up at different times of the day and some spots are strictly "Day Spots" while other spots are labelled "Nightspots" not nightspots as in Boat Quay and Mohammed Sultan Road. (Stale Joke Alert!)
For variety, I go for both day and night fishing. Girls I know, on the other hand, seem to prefer night fishing as daytime fishing can get pretty hot in Singapore. Which type of fishing do you prefer?
