Thai Ladies Fishing

MORNING WORLD…..

We were contacted by a regular visitor to Phuket who is unable to leave Australia and visit his lady friend in Patong who is missing her fishing and so he asked if we could accommodate her and a couple of friends which of course we agreed to and we would like to thank him for his support. Loads of fish for them in under 5 hours, the bigger fish not showing but still lots of action, they had a great time and this was confirmed by Sharn who arranged their trip as he messaged me saying “he had not seen them this happy in a long time”….mission accomplished!

The monsoon is definitely starting to shift and while we hope there is still some more rain to come, sunnier days are most definitely on the cards and if the last few years are anything to go by that means more Siamese Carp and also the return of the Mekong Giant Catfish. These brutes can grow to massive sizes and while we don’t have the real big ones (yet) we do have many well in excess of 30 kg and probably a good bit more which means a proper work out for anglers of any ability. Again, when they turn back on they turn on in style feeding voraciously and it is quite probable to hook into several of these in a session. With very few people fishing in the last seven months we have not seen a Mekong cat in a long time so the first person to catch one and pose in the water for a photo will get their next session free of charge so why not take advantage of our silly rates for silly times and come and join us for the chance of a freebie and some “FUNFISHIN!”…….??????????

DEALS

We have had a couple of people ask us if we are currently doing any deals and so the poster below should answer that question as we are basically offering our fishing at half price in an effort to tempt ex pats and remaining stranded tourists on the Island. All the usual things are included in the price and with very little pressure on the lake, very good catch rates are to be expected. We have removed our short 3 hour session as it would just not be worth doing and the half day package is great value anyway.
 
Please note that we do not offer hourly rates and the packages that we are offering do not even come close to meeting our running costs so please do not ask for further reductions.
 
We were also offering a half days fishing with 8 cold ones included a couple of days a week for just 1,000 baht (do the math) but we had no takers so we will have a re think.
 
Virtually all businesses here are struggling with the majority not even open and many perhaps closed for good. We are very aware that this is the same world over and this is not a cry for help, just putting it out there for you and the fish photos were all caught in the last week so why not come and catch some for yourselves and enjoy some “FUNFISHIN!”…..??????????

MORNING WORLD…..

Times are tough and we are all trying to make a little and save a little so we have put together another silly offer on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the month of September.

The lake has been fishing its nuts off lately and the Mekong Cats are due to start showing in numbers again soon so why not take advantage of half a days fishing with 8 “cold ones” for just 1,000 baht. Cheap as chips and we will also have cut-price bacon rolls and a curry dish on offer.

No crowds, and a little tipple while you have a little dangle…what could be better ?……”FUNFISHIN!”……????????????????

A truly crazy day of fishing

MORNING WORLD….. A truly crazy day of fishing

for the boys from Islander Sports Bar and Restaurant in Rawai. Mark, Craig and Will arrived early and after a coffee, they got straight into the fishing. Somewhere around lunchtime, Paul took Wills place and after devouring their Chinese chicken curry the three amigos got back to the action which was literally non stop with two rods proving to be one too many for much of the time.

Some decent fish lost at the net including a good Arapaima that Mark will be gutted about but on the plus side he did manage to land a nice Chao Phraya Catfish that he has been after since we first opened nearly four years ago.

It seemed that one of the three anglers was always into a fish and at times all three of them at once, they gave up counting but somewhere close to 150 fish between three anglers including Chao Phraya Catfish, Amazon, Asian and Tiger Red Tails, Striped Catfish, Carp, Walking Catfish, Pacu and Sting Ray and to use Marks comment…..the place is fishing its f…ing nuts off. We wait with bated breath for the Mekong and Siamese Carp to turn on properly!

So thanks to some top fellas for their custom and support and without a doubt that was definitely a day of……”FUNFISHIN!”……….??????????????
