Went cycling at ECP last Sat. Stopped at the prawning site to continue our remaining left over 1.5 hrs from the previous catch. But in order to use up this remaining time, i need to top up another 1 hr. Clever ah tat Aunite. So total catch is like 5 - 6 prawns for 2.5hrs. Bad rate i noe. Think wont be going there anymore. But suprisingly theres this young couple whom gave us all their catch, about 11 i guess. Before we left the site, a worker there helped us to measure our rod using a weight. With this technique, we decided to go back to our homeland to prawn again.
Reached the prawning site, Jio Thomas n Kris along. 2 rods n bought a packet of weights for only $1. Using that technique, we tested our rods. To our horror, both rods lines were too long! Which means the our bait will just sleep on the pond floor without the notice of the prawns. Even they notice, they will eat up our bait quietly without sinking our float. So we adjusted length, threw in our bait. Within 5 mins we hooked up a prawn. Then baby went to get the netting. While she was away, i missed out 2 prawns. So now i'll say the weighting really helps. Soon enough Jane came joining us. She 1 rod heself. She didnt catch much prawns on her for the whole night. Like only a handful. But she was lucky to won a big wooden CNY Deco from the lucky dip from one of her prawn.
A total catch of 27 prawns from 9.30 to about 2 am using 3 rods. But Kris n jane's rod only caught about 6-7. So looks like we caught the remaining 20+ prawns, which broke our record... Yippee!!!!
