My first ever trip in 2012

Date : 5th May 2012
Time : 730am - 500pm
Boatman : Ah Kong
Cost : RM1450
Location : Baguan
Members of the trip : Myself, Jason, Bob, Bakry, Andimax, Jepp and 2 other friends.
Haven't been fishing for almost 5 months. This was my first ever trip in 2012. Experienced a lot of tangled line in this trip and I had to sacrifice almost 20m of my 40lbs fluorocarbon line due to 'bird nest'.

Will surely go to Baguan waters again in the future. At the mean time, I had to improve my stamina. Fishing in the depth of 70-80m was not really that easy.
