Fishing~

WOW! Today, amazingly for the first time in many moons. I went fishing! No not at the local fish-a-shrimp place, that sucks! My uncle, my bro and I all went to sunny Florida~ You actually believed that? Ugh you're dumb. We went to some place called Kampung Something something. Its near Sematan beach, so you kinda can hear the tide from here. We were there to hook us some FRESHwater Fishies.

These babies.

FIRSTLY! I learned how to tie a nice loop on my lure



ITS SUPER TOUGH!! I cant tie it on without cutting my finger.. Anway.. the trick is to keep casting your lure very far away then pulling it back slowly so it swims like a fish and its easy prey. It gets boring once in a while. But I got a bite in 5 minutes! Yay me! But it was a tiny one.. we hadta let it go.After that I never got a nibble again. SIgh..

In the end... only my bro got some nibbles. Me and my uncle were dead dry. So... my uncle brought out his secret weapon. He told us : " I didn't want to use this but I guess I have no choice!" he help out a large freezer container thingy. We were afraid.. very afraid, but at first we thought it wasn't that bad. Til he opened it! OMG!! SMELLLLLLLYYYYY!! Yes you guessed it, it was... ROTTEN FISH!

ROTTEN TO THE BONE!

Me and my bro dived into the nearest bush. In the end we have to use it too. We were desperate for fish. At first he put it on for us but soon we did it ourselves. I actually touched fermented fish.. YUCK! Other than that, ITS A MIRACLE! After just casting the rod with the rotten fish, we all got bites 4 seconds later! OMG! Yessss.. aahha but we all paid the price with fingers smelling like it came from the bad side of a smelly fishmarket.

Soooo, we caught alot of fish... put it in a bucket and went to the car. BUTBUTBUT! Some Malay guy stopped us and said we must pay for the fishes we caught. OMG! we panicked when we found out it was RM12 per kilo and ours was.. bout 7 kilos. While we distract the guy with bargaining my bro took the bucket and lightened the load into the pond again. After the measurement, it went to about 3.5 kilos. We bargained and bargained and we got Rm40 for it. GAAAH! EXPENSIVE! and thus we went home.

I dont know how many times i scrubbed my fingers with dettol, dish washing liquid, vinegar and condensed milk(don't ask me why)... and it still smells. God save my fingers. Alright thats all i hafta say for our fishitty fish fish trip. LOL! ahaha.

Dont call me a nerd,
