Fresh Water Fishing Comp Phuket

[69690jay]

Hello fellow fishermen,

just went out this afternoon to the Phuket Fishing Park and made arrangements to organize a fishing comp.

Once i have enough interest i will set the date.

500 Baht Entry fee includes buffet lunch.

All equipement included or bring your own. There are hook and bait restrictions.

Rawai Beach Fishing Club will sponsor the event and if the turn out is good we will do it every month.

Prizes will be according to attendance but do not worry there will be some excellent prizes.

Those of you who are interested please reply.

Tight lines and screaming reels

Hi Big Guy, when is a good date for you? So far we have 6 signed up, I will pick a date soon as we get 10+

Not certain yet, but hoping to get back into town late next week, to early the following week.

Intend to drop in and visit you in rawai next time in town.

Hey what you doing up at the lake thought you were going out on Ocean Hunter Today???????????

See who can beat the 40KG Arapaima I caught out of there a year or so ago.

Tight Lines Good Idea the Fresh Water Stints especially when the Monsoons arrive.

The Stellas would prove effective there

Have a good Sonkran although tinged with sadness and anger after watching the News in Bangkok unfold sad day and more to come I am afraid.

See you all on the 21st

Did you pay the 5000 baht to catch that arapima?

That's over a ton these days in real money. Watch out for that!

Yes and I think the reason for it dyeing is because Farang who are fishing for it leave the rods unattended, I was there recently and saw a man fishing then dissaperaing for over an hour leaving the rods in the water, no wonder it was deep hooked and susequently died.

The so called guiding at this lake is poor to say the least....
