SGROC Fishing thread

[jonolau]

Hi Jonalau, i assumed you are referring to fishing at the legal fishing grounds at the reserviors. If so, then the peacock bass and toman will be your primary targets.

For toman, i prefer to use surface lures (popper, sliders, etc). Its more entertaining to catch them this way as the action is more visual. Other lures like spoons, jigs, spinners and swimming lures (shad profile) do work on them too.

For peacock bass, flies or flies jig work best for me. Poppers, jigs, spinners, small swimming lures work too. Flouro colours (green/yellow) tend to work better too. Peacock bass usually starts feeding when there is light.

Hope this help.

Hi vandyk,

Thanks, buddy! This is very useful.

Where would the legal reservoirs be? Maybe I might also ask in fishingkaki.

Thanks once again!

Hi Jonathan,

If i remember correctly, the reservoirs with designated legal fishing grounds are Lower Seletar Reservoir, Lower Pierce Reservoir, Kranji Reservoir, Bedok Reservoir and MacRitchie Reservoir.

I have only tried the first 3 reservoirs. Most of the time, i'm at the illegal areas. Oops!! Last time of coz...

Red Chicken/Merah and Big Grouper caught off Tg Berakit, 20km away from Hosburgh.

Big Mangrove Jack and lots of fish caught in Sabah. This is not our best catch. 3rd/4th best. Make sure have electric reel, otherwise very siong. 150 metres deep.
