Yesh...!!! Finally got to go fishing... Chung said he'll come at 6am to pick me up for fishing... I woke up at 5.45am, which was quite early even for me.... and Guess what, he actually came early.. at 5.50am..!!! like, man, I haven't even brushed my teeth yet..!!(eventually did brush before i left) quickly got changed (well ,just wore a pair of jeans with my sleeping clothes) and hopped on the car... and my cousin said I dressed too nicely for fishing.. mmm...
Well, today, was the first time in my life I ever put so much information about fishes and fishing in one day... like a crash course on fishing.. (FISHING101).. So, first fishing spot, was a jetty. Quite a nice spot, even have holes on the jetty to put your fishing pole. Caught small fishes there.. Actually, those are the only fish we caught the whole trip.... haha...
When to another spot, further up north. This place was a bit rocky, and my line got caught on the rocks... :-( But at least this spot, there was some 'nibbling' action on the pole. Well, that's about it really, could not catch any.
We left that spot after about 2 hrs there. On the way back, my cousin decided to stop by at a vineyard. There was wine tasting. Well, he surprised me with when he said to the lady at the counter : ' let him have a wine tasting session, for 6 types'. It was quite nice. Then, after 6 taste, he asked, 'so, which one do you like?' I pointed to 2 that I quite like, then... then..!!, He said 'right, get me these two'... I had a really blur face on.. then he smiled said' So now I solved your Christmas present' haha... ah.. coolz...
Then, since 'the day was still young'... Chung said to have one last try at this spot. It was 3pm then and I wasn't a good time to fish, because it is when the fish is lest active. Chung, started collecting 'pipi', a clam like thingy...
Then, when I was reeling in my line, i felt that it was caught on something, so I asked Chung to help me with it. When he got it lose and reel it in.. got a surprise, there was a musel on the line... Never in Chung's life has he seen or heard of people catching mussel on a fishing line... Well, there is a first time for everything.... :-p
went back after 5pm, but not before stopping by at Mc D. Gosh, it's the first time in my life that I ate so much Mc D in one day. had Macers for breakfast, lunch and pre-dinner.... woah.... after I ate that Big Mac, I really wanted to go for exe.... mmm.. might go exe tomorrow... :-p
Reach home, my uncle start to clean the fish and 'pipi'... Fried small fish... yum... eat em with the bones.... 'pipi' was nice as well... with all the 'sandy' goodness in it... mmm... ate my mussel, was quite nice...
I kept the shell to remind myself about this day, when a mussel was caught with a fishing line.. hehe...
