Pekan: 1st May 2010

An auspicious date for fishing in Pekan with Labour Day holiday, full moon and favorable wind condition. So after confirm with Atoq the date, me, my boss - Awin and Eidi saw our ways to Pekan on 1st May.  By 7am, Azhar MJ already waits us at his private jetty with bot ready to go. I asked him got ice ka? He said plenty...i asked him why plenty ice...he said...you'll see...

By 7.30am, we already cruising to the river mouth.  With favorable wind and sea condition, it only took us ~ 1 hr 15 minutes to Karang Luas with avarage bot speed ~ 23knots.

Total tally: 7 macks, 3 cobias, 2 banded trevally, 1 black tipped shark, ~ 4 coral trouts...

p/s: Unforgettable experience is to see the mack boiling frenzy just like GTs...jumping n flying...wow...cast anything to them 100% sure hantam!!!!!
