Hi Chrisfly, Welcome to Singapore and its nice to meet up just now down at Coho.
I can see that you already landed your first fish on fly here in Singapore (very nice peacock bass no less ;D) and I'm sure it will not be your last.
Hope we can catch up and fish together someday.
cheers and tightlines Alberto

Had a great trip with Michael and his friend Jeff yesterday! To where, I don t know, only thing I know is that it was somw place in Singapore. Got myself a nice Peacockbass, my first fish in Asia, I ve had several fishes on my flyrod in Thailand last year, but never landed any. The Peacockbass was a beautiful fish, it was a really nice trip, Michael even hooked a saratoga, but lost it, he got 3 Peacockbass, I think. Hope to join Michael once more before I go home to the cold north. And maybee some salt flyfishing.. Sincerely Chris ;D ;D

Hi Alberto,
yes I hope that we can, really want try and catch some more Peacockbass and other species.
Got less then 2 weeks left here, gonna do a lot of familythings like the Zoo, Sentosa Islands, and other stuff, so I dont have many days that I can use for fishing.
This friday I can fish, and monday, and tuesday next week. Would be nice to go fishing one of those days.
That goes to you to An Ren, would be nice to fish toghether before I leaving.
Well, gonna drop by Michael one of the days this week, really want to join him for another trip also.
Sincerely
Chris

Hi everyone! We had a nice trip today also, we went 2 places to fish, almost hooked a big Pb at the first place, only landed a small Jaguar. At the other place, the white house, I didnt got any fish today, but got a turtle on my fly. Lot of rain today, but we had a really great fishing day. Going home on Thursday, have to say that I have had a great time here in Singapore, and you all flyfishers here are fantastic, I ve got a real good velcome here, and very good help, and at last fantastic flyfishingfriends. Learned a lot of your country, the opportunities are here, I will tell people at home about your country, and your great hospitality. Hope that flyfishing gets legal here soon, so that you dont have to look above your shoulder all the time, to see if the ranger is coming. Will be at the forum in the future also, really enjoy to chat with you guys. Going in to Coho at thursday afternoon for a talk with Mike and the others, then its 13 hours flight back to Norway. Hope to return here again in the future, with my flyrod of course. So long everyone, I ve had a great time with you!!! With sincere regards Chris
