Snakehead jigger ?

5.15pm...Ranca-ranca swamp, hearing a quiet little plop , i turned in direction of that sound and saw some bubbles floating next too a couple of stalks of grass . Casting the Viva mini frog past the rise , when the lure passed the stalks of grass , there was a " pock " sound but no hookup . Then i change to my killer lure...

My killer lure...Surecatch Mini froggy

As i approached the flooded grassy areas the water meandered it's way between the grassy patches . Casting the Surecatch next to a grassy patch and then i try jigging the lure ...almost immeditiately its disappeared with a vicious splash...Yehooooo!!...yes!..finally i cought 700grm haruan

Haruan ( Channa sitrus ) is traditionally taken on live frog and they are said to show disinterest in artificial lures most of time...i prove it all wrong

Revenge...

6pm... Ranca-ranca swamp...this is the first time i hunt snakehead at this area .

The short splashy pauses made during retrieve that eventually get to the nerve of haruan. I did not expect it at all as haruan moved in from bellow without warning to grab my slowly moving frog and went straight down for cover. Yehoo...finally i cought 300grm haruan ( Channa sitrus )

This small fellow has a great appetite

Perfect hook up ...

The first snakehead of 2009

6.15pm Kinabebuwa area..after back from school i cast for a while just to release all the stress

Your eyes and ears must in full alert mode when hunt snakehead

Finally after waiting 22 day....my first snakehead of 2009..yehooo!!!...500grm haruan

Thank for good fight

Today i am using Surecatch froggy.

Catch and realease is one way to educate the haruan , and indirectly help them to survive againts the onslaught of greedy human being.

The magnificent haruan vs Abu Garsia Black Max

4.15pm ,Kinabenuwa areas ..today i trekking deeper to explore this area . I found lot of potential spot for snakehead baitcasting . Sadly i found abondon fishing net...this really death trap for fish

Today i'm using Surecatch Froggy weedless plug series ( F07/6.5cm/14g )..most effective for haruan which hide inside the deep snags.

Yehooo...yes!..i cought 500grm haruan..it was a great moral booster for me

Today i'm using my newest weapons that just i bought this morning...Abu Garsia Black Max baitcaster + Lemax Slim Max rod + Power Pro Phantom Red line
Ha..ha..ha..once again! Haruan rip off my Surecatch Froggy...

should catch & release be confined to the new genaration of anglers.

Bye...bye my sweat heart

Thank for good fight...till we meet again

7 years snakehead prison

Why i call 7 years snakehead prison? Because this place was closed for fishing almost 7 years .In this lake there are lots of snakehead like toman ( giant snakehead /Channa micropeltes ) and haruan ( Channa striatus ) .

I heard about this place from someone that its full full with snakeheads species and today was my chance to explore its potential . Fro my observation ,the area are shollow weedy .Twice , i saw toman the size about 4kg playing on the surface of the water .

Thought these area is prohibited, i know that one day i will come here for fishing.
