recreational trip to Berhala & Bai Island

Went for a recreational trip to Berhala and Bai Island with Jepp, Bakry, Andrew, Fernandez, Jivoh, Murad and Cosmack. The trip was supposed to start at 7.00 am but due to some 'technical error', we left the jetty of Sandakan wet market only at 8.00am.

Bakry got into a very BIG fight but unluckily he lost and his rod broke into 4 pieces.

Andrew's managed to land this 800g grouper.

The 4 of us ( Murah, Jepp, Bakry and I ) sitting at the back agreed to share our catches equally among each other. We were quite surprised that we managed to land 9.5kg of fish.

Feeling tired but happy. Will surely follow Nasib's boat again in the future for another recreational trip to Berhala and Bai Island.
