When i strolled in , the 1st thing i noticed at this place was a photograph of an angler proudly posing holding up a huge patin or a catfish..normally i wouldnt have given it a second glance, but it was trully a big whooper !! And so far, this is the only pond which offer such a big catch. My inquiries revealed that the fish in the photo is the sole captive from a small load of catfish rleased some time ago. According to one guy , they are pretty hard to catch because of the abundance of small shrimps or algae which is 
their primary source of food.
their primary source of food.a typical patin fish
Anyway i decided to go and have a try at this pond with my usual pancing-kakis , Sony and AH-MAT ( Mat Bom )..haha anyway we were hoping 3 rods ought to triple our chances of making anything exciting here.As always walkin into a paypond for the 1st time presented me with uncertainty of whether to fish on da right side or the left side.more often than not, the decision is made by avoiding the side where the sun hits you straight in the face.
Nothing happened for da nxt 4 hours, that is after discounting my capture of six tilapia. However the story was diff for abang Sony and Mat Bom as they both caught 3 pacu & 1 sizeable Jelawat...after gettin tired of unhookin small criters, i decided to search for some decent photos.after walking a short distance i saw an angler executing a murderous strike..one can tell it was a big catch...the tug of war lasted for almost half an hour & finally it was caught !! it was a 8kg catfish..a very big cat indeed..after taking some photos i headed back to my rod..and i saw there was a slight tug on my line..my waited for 3 sec and gave a firm strike n the fight was on !! the fight wasnt long but it was still a strong fighter and it turn out to be a sizeable 3kg rohu or indian carp..all in all it was an eventful day..and YES SIR , we will be back for more..till then God bless.
right : theres definite love here..
