Lim Chu Kang Jetty - 01/05/07

It was a nice May Day public holiday when Dave and myself made our way down to the Lim Chu Kang Jetty to try our luck. I casted my bait to the right side of the jetty near to the end while Dave casted far out into the water at the extreme end of the jetty.


Here were our catches at the end of the day, after 6 scorching hours under the hot sun. It was a pretty slow day, but we were grateful that we still ended up with some fishes after braving the hot sun.

This Tropical Sand Goby was caught by me using dead prawn as bait.


The picture below shows Dave's catch, a nice Goatee Croaker, also known locally as Ikan Gelama in Malay, caught using sliced sotong.



In addition to both of thos fishes, Dave also managed to catch a small Estaurine Moray Eel, which was smearing mucus all over the leader line.

Needless to say, I have left out the distasteful photos of the eel, which was released back into the water shortly after.
