Pekan 5-6 Sept 2007: PELAREEF Charter - Pekan Sailfish

This is very sudden, unplanned decision. On the 1st Sept i was informed to get ready to escort our FIRST Pelareef Charter customer. So me and alfi got together and plan what the next move. We get in touch with oor Tekong Azhar MJ, asking the available date. Azhar said the ONLY date is 5-6 Sept. So we booked the date. Together with alfi & hasran are our Platinum Premier client, consist of Nasir, Nizam & Azrol. The target is SAILFISH.  Weather was excellent on the 5th but a little bit rough on the 6th morning.  Within this 2 days, we landed 14 sailfish with countless hookups, snapped lines, hooks auto-dislodge during fight & boatside etc.
