I'm not a good angler

It always amazes me how local Anglers catch good size fish each and every time they go fishing. These experts hardly ever come back empty handed. Not so for me. I seldom catch big fish and often end up catching the smallest of fish namely; whip tail, 7 banded grouper (Arumugum) and Blueline grouper. These fish are not favored for the kitchen and hence seldom sold in wet markets.

Blueline Grouper

However last week I finally landed the big one. Large enough to fill the length of the ice-box and good enough for the dinner plate. They were 1.5kg parrot fish. Sizable for local waters

WF with a 1.5kg Parrot fish caught off Bukom

Boon with a 2kg Parrot, caught off St Johns Island
