    I think it's very hard to take pictures of fishes in the water. It is not easy to be careful not to scare the fish yet maintain a good focus.
    Cheers,

    As always, nice field shots budak Though i worry for the snakehead. They're always targeted by old bengs looking for "Fish tonic" Haven't seen any of them in "Badis Island" for the last few months either... Azmi, any sightings the last time you went there? Or has that trio of old men fished the location clean?

    Always the old men, the last time I went fishing, these group of old men were disgusted with me when I threw back a grouper into the water, saying what a waste...it was smaller than my palm.

    Idiots with nothin to live for... These guys don't understand the first thing about TRUE fishing. It's like "Cause and effect" were erased from their brains. If they had brains to begin with...

    Call the rangers or police if you notice these people poaching in our nature reserves again!
