robblok Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Nice fish well done. I had a nice day too caught 13 fish mostly big sawai 20 kg and one of 24 kg. A few small bugs. But it was good because i got bites on all 3 baits. I did go for caho with a big ball of lam all the way to the other side in the boat. Too bad the sawai liked the bait better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IGFA record for Chao Chraya Catfish caught is 41kg at Gillhams, Krabi. According to one tour company website Bungsamran Chao Phraya Catfish catch was 25kg and Shadow Lake is 15kg. The reason I fished at Palm Tree Lagoon as it has supposedly quite a number of 50kg and perhaps the largest being 96kg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoso Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 Bungsamran was overcast and very humid today. The field next to the bungalows was on fire again just like last year. At 645pm it rained heavy with very stong wind. A lot of staff were blown away including many lum buckets and even plastic chairs. We bottomed fish for cahos but caught a few decent size mekongs between 18kg to 42kgs. No photos as no one was keen to pose with the mekongs. In the evening I ran a rod for Chao Phraya catfish and caught a small 18kg. We fish again tomorrow as my friends fly home to London on saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoso Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) Last day fishing for Adam as they fly back to UK. As he never catch a Chao Phraya Catfish ran a line for him and caught 4 small ones 12kg,15kg, 18kg and 20kg. And as usual Dave was clowning about.
