went fishing yesterday. caught 4 fishes. yay.

actually a few days back i went to jurong with good ol’ buddy dexter to take a look around. and for some reason we decided to fish for prawns. at the end of the day i brought home 4 even though i caught 7 because the prawns in the pond were so damn small and the holes of the net used to keep them were so damn big. guess the small ones just conveniently escaped. what a rip-off.

speaking of which, i think the recent hype about the pasir ris pond owner breeding mosquitoes is pretty bullshit. NEA just needed someone to be the scapegoat for anti-dengue propaganda. and NEA has a history of opposing fishing. heh.

i promised myself i’d do some work today. i’ll start with a bit of econs IA. then maybe i’ll have more time to work on fulfilling today’s 13 hour sleep requirement.
later,

i went fishing in bukit batok once. the fish were damn sneaky and kept biting the bait but letting go before i managed to reel them in. ended up with feeding the fishes. -.-
im veteran fish killer now.
what you been doing wrong is that you didnt yank the rod up really hard when you felt a nibble.
this drives the hook up the guys skull, greatly elevating chances of success
