I am normally not fisherman type, but since Beni offered promo price for the accommodation, I thought it was worth a try. Beni also informed me that the location will be different than usual (2nd and 6th Barelang bridges – never tried to fish there anyway) and the fishing boat will be bigger. The keyword “ship will be bigger” calms down my wife who saw previous fishing pictures on small and frail fishing boat, at least it is better during rain and we can do shalat on the boat.
The Fishing Boat
The journey were started from Punggur/Kabil, about half hour travel by car from Batam Center and we were planning to fish near lagoi and some areas between Batam and Bintan. I have to admit that Beni, as fishing manager, already prepared everything started from fishing tackles, nasi padangs, mineral water and indomie for his 10 patients (that is how he calls us) very well.
Fisherman in Action
One moment of history is when I finally catched my first fish. The fish was too cute not even longer than 20cm so I can’t find liable photo of it to be displayed here yet. Anyway, this is our biggest catch (actually, it is Pak Rudi’s) after 20 hours at the sea.
