Prawning Tactics

[ranmasatome]

err.... bro... i just went last week and i got 57 prawns in that time. Didn't know how to eat 57 prawns so gave them away only kept the 20++ large ones.

I've never been prawning..can you use squid jigs or 3 sided hooks? I'm guessing no...

[Mr.Oink]

3sided hook not allowed , they got house rules

[eviltrain]

haha, if you rear shrimps, you can see that shimp or prawn's mouth is very small. a 3 sided hook won't be able to hook them in their mouth.

Where can I go to buy worms aside from the prawning place itself?

maybe you have some in your subtract ? hahaha. recently some of us found freshwater bristle worm in our shrimp tanks.

i'm not really a pro la. just happen to know how to by watching how pros prawn along the way.

Bro.. Which place did you go?
Cannnot leh, I caught only 4 on last friday with 2 hours and 18 on satursday with 3 hours.. After these 2 days of staring at the small red tip float, I think I had suffered blur vision liao..

As for the striking I think I must have over do it, my hook went springing to the roof and everyone was like.. "woo.." haha. I thought it will be the same like fishing. haha..

So which place is good for prawn fishing? So many place nowadays.

Cardinals Pride,
i been to the one at geylang and bishan. best to prawn early morning. use worm as bait. if you don't wish to strain your eyes by keep seeing the float, simply just straighten the line over the float ( the line end of the rod ) hold it there and simply just "feel" for any biting.
-enjoy prawning-

[Mr.Oink]

I like Bishan and Taman Jurong

[bigfthing]

Great writeup & Info Marle! I think you should continue with cooking the prawn recipes haha! Cheers!

[eviltrain]

Salt and Pepper will be nice. but i don't really eat prawns

[bigfthing]

Yup quite sure just salt & pepper will be nice enough! But do they provide there? Can you BBQ there? Or should you bring along some spices & stuffs! that will be great info too! Love to eat shrimp! hahaha...

[felix_fx2]

bishan does provide bbq & salt. if you go during weekend it will be packed.

[illumnae]
