Fishing Trip... again :) - GERMAN SUBMARINE WRECK?
Assalaam aleykom WBT. This coming 20th March, I've been told by my good friend Fernando Ikhmal Akhmal Al-Thenggirrie that a fishing trip has been scheduled. Yeps, it's that time again, where I change my hat from a PhD student to a Mackerel hunter in the deep Yan (Kedah) seas. This time however, it's gonna be a bit different, where the fishing ground won't be the tuas-es... instead, we're headed for the legendary GERMAN SUBMARINE WRECK!!! Or... commonly referred to as KAPAL KARAM by the seasoned Yan fishermen. Well, actually this isn't the most legendary Kapal Karam... the famous one is in Penang... and of Russian origin. The one we're going to is a submarine (kapal gak la tuuu).... and of German origin. TQ Fernandi Akhmal for the correction info :D
It's gonna be an extra 30-minutes boat ride I reckon... Normally, it takes around 45-minutes to 1-hour to reach the usual tuas-es... so now I guess we'd be making more nautical miles :) I think we're going in the same kind of boat... quite small and can only fit around 7-8 people max (even banyak tu pon dah shempit sket). So kena tahan sket la the extra 30-minute journey...
Selalu kat tuas tangkap tenggiri je. Since German Wreck ni dalaam sikit air dia (plus the fishies can make homes in the wreckage itself), maka insyaAllaah, there are more species of fish to hunt for.... For myself... I am now already deeply in love with the delicious meat of the Spanish Mackerel (lebih2 lagi when caught FRESH!). I also admire their fighting spirit and the way the rod bends when the fight is at its peak... Dan maybe... when I do get my hands dirty at the German Wreck... kot2 la dapat tangkap spesis ikan lain yang kasik fight lagik power... Lepas ni buleh la tambah koleksi love affair dengan ikan lain pulak insyaAllaah :D hehehehe. Oraits...
PS:- Dua for our safe go and come back ek in case jadik pergi. Assalaam aleykom WBT...
