Fishing with Ah Jiang 26 to 28 May 2013

We had glorious weather. Perfect calm seas and light winds. The water was a little cloudy, just the perfect balance for catching squid. Ah Jiang recently commissioned his 5th boat, a beautiful 70 footer with a 23 foot beam. The largest I have ever seem in a charter boat. You could place 8 rod holder comfortably at the stern of the vessel without getting in each other's way. The service on-board was SIA standard. Ah Jiang really paid attention to details to keep his customers comfortable;e and very happy indeed. The air-conditioning was superb and the sleeping accommodations could not be better. It is difficult to make any more improvements to the charter vessel. This coupled with Ah Jiang's fishing expertise made this one of the best fishing trips I have had in a long while. No need to charter the boats at Tg Pinang anymore. Just hop onto Ah Jing's boat at Marina Country Club and off we sail immediate y to the happy hunting grounds north of Horsburgh Lighthouse.
