Sea Bass Galore off St John's

On 12 May, a happy incident happened off St John's Island. A thousand Sea Bass escaped from the AVA fish farm there. The first lucky angler went home with 50 mature Sea Bass weighing from 1.5-5kilos. Word spread like wild fire and soon even those without boats made their way to the Island to claim their share of these trophy fish.    

Philip Seow, my fishing buddy & I caught 7 fish the first day and some more the following. They were delicious. Best rig proofed to be live prawn on Hong Kong hook.
I'm off there again tomorrow to fill the home freezer.
