Argghhhhhhh!!! What a day!!

Since BIL and another fishing kaki could not make to the Ubin trip, so I and Dem decide to try the island.

Caught the ferry or rather a bumboat to Ubin and since I have not fishing there for more than 15 years at the island, Dem lead the way to the spot that he recalled it from another kaki.

Changi Ferry Terminal



Set up my gear, cast and... nope! not a big fish. Bloody shit!, got snag to don't know what. Fix up another rig and cast again. Not a single twitch for two hours at the beach facing the offshore fish farms.

Where are the fishes?

Twice reeling in with a huge caterpillar sea-creature like stuck on the bait and it look scary.

I did some luring at the beach but again.. ZERO!!!! With some stupid school campers are throwing rocks where we were fishing. It's a bit frustrating when they are no bites and you've got these silly school children throwing things in the sea.

Dem decide to change spot, when he called another fishing kaki which try to guide him to a new spot by phone. So we walked to the said spot. And it make the whole trip more frustrating when he himself doesn't know the place.

The "Long & Winding Walk"

With the gears and heavy bags, we have to walk like half of the island ending up at some chalet. Decide not to go any further. Tried luring at resort beach with negative results. Called the island taxi and straight to the jetty.

Next time if I want go there again, might as well have someone that has more knowledge of the island. Hate to have blisters on my foot.

Reach Changi jetty and decide to fish at Board Walk and it make me sick again, when I saw a lot of rods already filling up all the space. Decide to join a regular angler there to another area near the Board Walk.

And of course.... not bites at all.

To kill that boring feeling, I snap some pictures of the area.
