It is a school break. That’s mean a whole lotta fishing days for us. Before each and everyone of us goes back to our hometown, we decided to fish together.

It was Kg Kurnia . There is a small water way to guide the rain as well as the domestic

Waste. The water flows into Belat River which is famous for its GP. But, we wasn’t really looking for GP. Our main objective was to catch any species using Berkley Soft Plastic. We were using 3 types of SP, Gulp, minnow and grub.

We were experienced many strike from what we believed a Haruan ( snakehead sp). But to no avail, we landed nothing. We lost so many SP and we had to quit earlier than we planned.

What went wrong? The lack of skill was the number one reason. We are new to this SP thing and perfection is what we are looking for. Secondly, the fish who took away the SP were juvenile. The SP were too big for them, so when they strike, they managed to bite only at the tail section of the SP. Finally, the hooks we used were not suitable for the SP as they were to big and not meant for the SP. So we had to invest some more money to buy hooks that purposely built for the SP.
