I would like share my recent catch report with SG Ricky and his wife in Thailand at ,Monsters lake. I went fly fishing with Ricky & his wife (SG couple) to IT Monsters lake. The end results for this trip. We landed 10 fishes on flies and lures together. The best thing is that I missed my very 'first arapaima on fly' on my 3rd casts in the very morning at 6.20am. arrh.... (not so big , size wise about 15-20kg) That never mind !!! In the late morning , as I was luring & trying out with my Yamoto lure, I got hitted by another bigger arapaima. I got a good fight with the fella for about 4-5 mins before the hook gave way and I lost the fish. d**n !!! Should have changed the original hook to a 4 X hook before I use it. Well!!! That the fun part about fishing !!! Sometime you got them ,sometime you lost them. Enjoys my CR !!!! This is what got me interested in fly fishing. 30KG Arapaima landed by Ricky on his last trip to IT Monsters with me.Enjoys the vid clip !!! Enjoys the Fly fishing fever vid clip for this trip !!! Enjoys the photos hightlights:
