Day of Eel Fishing

The day was still dawn, and i have to wake up to prepare myself for today activity, eel fishing. It is my first time to fish. This outdoor activity was invited by George on last week. Without thinking too much, i promised immediately.

Our fishing location is located at the paddy field in Sekinchan, Selangor. It took us around 2 hours to reach the destination. When we reached to the paddy field, we start to prepare the necessary gears like rod (substituted it with long pipe, rotten, bamboo, even a groom stick), baits (squid), spool and pile. We separated the big group in several teams. Again, my partner is Paullie. In order to find the eel, we need to find the holes along the drain, then search the hidden place of the eel. Within 2 hours, we have walked from one side paddy field to another side. Both of us don't even know which the hole for the eel’s hidden place is, until we met Jack. Jack taught us the way to look the eel's hole and some strategy to hook the eel when it eats the bait. Unfortunately, when the time we started to get the result, the weather started to get hot and heat. It was around 12.30pm. Other mates were calling and chasing us for the return. Well, without any excellent result, we gotta to return to the car and start packing for lunch.

We had our lunch at Restaurant Jiann Chyi. It was a great lunch for me with the sharp porridge. The taste of the porridge is totally difference that what I had in Kuala Lumpur. It is more toward to Toew Chew flavor and tastes a little bit spicy, with the topping of fresh fish ball. We ordered few dishes which are famous in the restaurant. From the main entrance, there is a banner published with Ah Xian's face and the food are definitely determined.

It was a short trip, but it makes us fun and joy along the trip.
