learning to fish in singapore and japan skip to main skip to sidebar learning to fish in singapore and japan fishing is a popular pastime in singapore and japan and here i will share my experiences on learning to fish including my catches and the rigs that i use saturday november 07 2015 moved to japan i have moved to japan so i won t be fishing in singapore for a while the blog s name has been updated to include japan as well though i don t think i will be fishing here for a while but if i do and catch anything it will show up here posted by teck at 10 15 am no comments labels miscellaneous saturday june 16 2012 a long break after a long break i went fishing again but didn t catch much just 4 tambans and 2 kekeks it was low tide in the afternoon not the best time to jig for tambans i had wanted to use the tambans as bait if i managed to catch more but with such a small catch we just brought them all home next time i will aim to go in the morning at high tide but today s main aim was not to catch fish but to bring my son fishing he didn t catch anything but it gave him a chance to stay in the sun walk around bedok jetty and spend some energy posted by teck at 8 47 pm no comments labels miscellaneous saturday november 10 2007 no joy again this is getting out of hand spent 3 hours at the jetty today and still ended up with only two tambans maybe it is time to move somewhere else at least i could catch catfish at the seawall outside the yacht club posted by teck at 2 17 pm no comments labels miscellaneous thursday november 08 2007 moon and tide moonrise and moonset are important times to know since when the moon is at its zenith the highest point in the sky it is also the best feeding time this usually coincides with a tide about an hour before high tide so i have added the local moonrise moonset and tide info to my list of links posted by teck at 4 30 pm no comments labels miscellaneous no joy went to bjt today and tried to use live tambans but no hits only had a boy who managed to cross his line with mine and ended up spending some time trying to resolve the entangled mess and it was a slow tamban day for me as well but uncle jepun the old man who is a regular at the jetty and sells tamban hooks catches tambans so effortlessly as they say if you have no skill you blame the rig after braving the early morning rain and spending three hours i caught only four tambans of which two were used as baits which never landed anything not even an attempted bite posted by teck at 4 20 pm no comments labels miscellaneous saturday june 16 2007 catch report 16 jun 07 after a long break i finally went down to bedok jetty today at first it looked set to be a hot sunny day but then the clouds started to build up and it was a rainy one instead the catch was slow too at where i was about halfway up the jetty people were landing tambans at the rate of less than five in an hour as i didn t buy any prawns for use as bait i got down to jigging for tambans and was quite bored with the slow catch rate i did manage to catch a whiting on tamban hooks which i used as bait and floated it out but i didn t catch anything with that while jigging for tambans caught a total of five i managed to catch a wolf herring about 25cm long and a small little trevally someone else caught a baby queenfish on tamban hooks too otherwise no one seemed to have caught anything big in the morning there was a sea bass floating in the water it seemed half dead and no one really bothered to try to catch it posted by teck at 1 14 pm 3 comments labels catch reports wednesday june 06 2007 time too fish not if anyone thought moving house was tedious wait till your boxes are all in getting the boxes from one place to another is the easy part finding places to store all those things inside those boxes however is another challenge altogether and because of this challenge i have not been able to find any opportunity at all to go down for a short half day fishing session how i miss fishing maybe in another two more weeks things would have settled down enough for me to go wet my lines i wonder is by then the fishes would still be around hmm posted by teck at 1 10 am no comments labels miscellaneous friday may 25 2007 fishing season at bjt someone recently caught a huge queenfish at bjt looks like it is fishing season there i think june to september may be a good time to fish there but this same period is a busy time for me at work almost drowning in work already much less say try to find time to go fish and i am busy moving house too guess i won t be catching anything for some time sigh posted by teck at 1 19 am no comments labels miscellaneous monday may 14 2007 no time to fish i have been busy lately with work more importantly i am moving house soon so there is a lot of work to be done in preparing the new home so that means no time to fish hopefully i get to wet my lines soon posted by teck at 12 41 am no comments labels miscellaneous sunday april 22 2007 fishing today 21 april 2007 nothing i didn t catch anything at bedok jetty today i didn t stay long less than 3 hours didn t have many prawns left for bait so i left once they were all used up but the thing is even though the fishes were biting at my bait they didn t take the hook so while i felt the bites i didn t manage to hook anything i guess it may have to do with hook size and bait size does anyone have any advice on how to hook up prawn meat i used to cut it about the size of the hook and hook it up flesh and shell together but i guess the shell should be removed right problem is most of the time small fishes nibble away at the peeled prawn meat sigh the small fishes are too small to take the hook so no catch how big or small must the prawn meat be cut how to hook it to the hook so that fishes when eating the meat bite the hook too posted by teck at 1 17 am 1 comment labels miscellaneous saturday march 31 2007 fishing today 31 march 2007 after some time of absence from bedok jetty i went down again today with my wife in the afternoon high tide was over the tide was ebbing but luckily the tambans were biting by that seems to be the only thing that was biting my wife managed to get quite some tambans within a short time jigging for them but using the tamban for bait i was not able to catch anything and to top it off there was a sudden shower that made everyone run for shelter disrupting the fishing along the jetty for a short while the wind was strong today making it hard to float out my floats even casting was a challenge in the end we packed up and left giving away the tambans that we caught posted by teck at 11 17 pm no comments labels miscellaneous saturday march 03 2007 no joy with mealworms after a long time about two months of not fishing i managed to drag myself down to bedok jetty today to try if mealworms the kind you get in aquarium shops for feeding to fishes can work as baits so i bought a box of mealworms if it doesn t work i was going to feed them to my goldfishes and koi back home got to bedok jetty and hooked up the mealworms and cast after 3 hours in which fishes nibbled at the mealworms but there were no strikes i came to the conclusion that mealworms don t work good as baits they died the moment they touch water so they don t move around in the water to attract attention and since they don t look like they smell not like prawns there is basically nothing that is going to attract fishes unless fishes just happen to be right beside and goldfishes don t seem to like them too i tried feeding them to my goldfish nope not very popular with them i will try with my koi tomorrow probably with better results posted by teck at 11 35 pm no comments labels miscellaneous monday january 01 2007 1 jan 2007 eeltail catfish new year day was spent at the little jetty near amber beacon at east coast park i had some prawns and squid leftover from previous fishing trips and i really wanted to use them up as it was a waste to throw them away i caught this little eeltail catfish on handline it was similar in size to a previous catch the sea bottom around this area is not really good the last time i went i had to cut away my lines twice because they got caught on something at the bottom similarly i had to cut my line again today it is such a waste of line hooks weights and swivels posted by teck at 3 16 pm no comments labels catch reports monday december 25 2006 24 dec 2006 catfish caught this little marine catfish while fishing in the rain yes it is the monsoon season it rains almost daily but my fishing itch got the better of me so i went out to the sea wall beside saf yacht club just outside changi naval base hooked up an apollo rig with squid meat and cast the fight was short but still better than nothing i didn t stay long though it was raining and i didn t want to risk a cold also there were other people around fishing and my poor casting skills meant i keep crossing lines with other people so i decided to call it a day after less than two hours by the way the catfish was released back to the sea posted by teck at 11 35 pm no comments labels catch reports sunday december 17 2006 rain rain go away haven t been fishing recently i guess it is the rain monsoon season now in singapore and it is raining almost everyday and it can be quite unpredictable so you really can t tell in advance whether it is going to rain in the morning afternoon evening or night or whether the rain is going to last an hour or the whole day since i don t really enjoy fishing in the rain i guess i may be giving it is pass for a while meanwhile you can still check out fishing kaki forum for catch reports from others who fish in singapore and the surrounding countries posted by teck at 11 36 am no
