Fishing at Crab Island (Pulau Ketam)

I named this journey "Si Agas Di Pulau Ketam" (gnat at crab island). Because to many gnat was bite me and friends when we arrived at Crab Island.

First for all before start fishing we must to find bait as many we can. For this trip we are choosing live bait. Prawn is very popular live bait for angler. It's very universal bait for majority catch in Malaysia seas.



This is Mr. Ali aka Ali Cina, he is our boatman cum bait finder cum fishing net spreader.



With yellow shirt is Mr. Khalil, he help to collect the bait and put it into box. The box furnished with air bubble machine, it's importance to make live bait keep alive. The Person with army cap is me, I just monitored till Mr. Ali ask for help.



See!!! what was happen to me? Boatman asked for help. I need to keep the boat not to far and not to close from the shoreline. Oar can't been use cos the oar is to short and the wave to strong.



After a few moments we move to spot fishing and start fishing. Enjoy the picture below
