Jiggin' Jarak... Again

We fulfilled our second pilgrimage to Pulau Jarak again for 2010.

This time the catch unfortunately, was not as happening as our previous trips due to unfavourable tides (ain't we all love to blame our poor catch on something else ey?). But nevertheless, fellowship and great food all made up for it.

So before we set off, it was our usual stocktake on our battle inventory...

Williamson Vortex, Gyro, Bluefox Herring & Jigging Skarpsilda - CHECK!

New Bluefox Reflect Pirk patterns - CHECK!

Williamson Abyss & Benthos - don't leave home without them!

And new uniforms - CHECK!

Of course we brought along the new Okuma Cedros jigging reels that worked like a charm

Smooth, sexy yet tough

The honour of landing the first fish went to Ron C who hooked up a massive 6kg Mangrove Jack.

We were also bullied with many snapped lines and lost jigs. Apparently we had drifted over a playground of little kiddie Barracudas that were so eager to have new jewellery hanging out of their gobs. Too bad for us, as more jigs lost meant more $$ flying away. Still, we did land a few.

Of course, there were in between hits of good fish. Evergreen Poseidon bending over
Walla! Finally a GeeTee on Williamson Abyss 250g...
