Hoist The Colors

Hoist The Colors - Pirates of The Caribbean 3 OST
The king and his men
stole the queen from her bed
and bound her in her Bones.
The seas be ours
and by the powers
where we will well roam.

Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.

Some men have died
and some are alive
and others sail on the sea
– with the keys to the cage...
and the Devil to pay
we lay to Fiddler's Green!

The bell has been raised
from it's watery grave...
Do you hear it's sepulchral tone?
We are a call to all,
pay head the squall
and turn your sail toward home!

Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.

2007 May 5-12, Lhaviyani Atoll, Maldives

As with last year we booked Mas-Hibaru boat with Ibrahim as the captain. This year trip is very rough due to the monsoon. We arrive at the wrong date. If a week earlier the weather is excellent. Imagine to fish with 1-2.5 meter swells with "white-caps" everywhere. In-fact we waste one day of fishing due to the rough sea. Even the GT was not coorperating during rough weather. Few were caught the biggest GT 11kg. Biggest dogtooth 16kg. Biggest flower cod 10kg. Caught a sailfish, est weight 40-50kg with guess what...Yozuri Bonito. Near the boat, it cut the main line. As i say popping & trolling in this trip is very bad. Only jigging is great. We went to as 70-80meter drop-off and caught many groupers.

Alfi & Kamarul tested their new Fisherman 86RS & BigGame82, i really very impressed how the rod can cast 150-200g popper with out much effort. Better put the rod in my wish list....

2007 April 14, Lumut, Perak: Launching KRUMS

Behold, on this dated we successfully launched Kamarul's Ocean Pro 3200 with twin 200hp Yamaha 4 stroke outboard and took it for a cruise + boat handling and fimiliarisation at Pulau Sembilan. It took only ~25 minutes from Lumut Yacht Club to Pulau Sembilan with top speed of 42 knots. We really amazed with the engine and the boats hull.

2007 Feb 18, Pekan, Pahang

Alfi got call fro Azhar, our Pekan Tekong, saying the EBEK (diamond trevally) has arrived. WIthout hesitate, we round-up the kakis, pack our light tackle gear and off to Pekan. As with Murphy's law, our trip is not very fruitful. Only 1 bite in the morning. But Azhar says wait till 2.30-3pm when the tide comes in. As always, Azhar is right. Later 4 ebeks + 1 spanish mackerel were subdued. End of the day, i really enjoyed this trip.

My kakis also enjoyed coz they got to try their new Fisherman Yellowtail PE4
