Long time no give you update...still catching lots of fish every week - some of them of record size - as we always have done through the years...I just do not feel anymore the desire to tell everyone what we catch...after all we are pro fishing guides...so catching fish is nothing extraordinary but our job.
Extreme lure fishing in jungle streams and rivers....the highlight of the trip was already a good one to me with the catch of both a Splendid and an Emperor Snakehead (two rare Channa species)...
....until I hooked up that lovely 4.3 kg Thai Mahseer (Tor tambroides) on an old crankbait...my second Thai Mahseer on lure ever....I which you had been there with me in the pirogue to witness the fight..... Mahseer are known to kick ass...their speed and power are just amazing....and playing one on that river full of structures around.... you'd better believe me it was the kind of rock'n'roll I love....
We've found a particular spot where there are lots of them....they are up to 20 kg according to the local people who see them jumping on a regular basis....so I'm looking for clients who do not mind trekking for a few days in the jungle to go after them....
