Sg. Tahan 3d2n Trip

I slot in a fishing plan to Taman Negara on September 3rd to 5th. After the Thailand trip canceled, fellow fishing mates decided to have a freshwater trip within September itself so the trip was set.

We left Kuala Lumpur on dawn of Friday and after some wrong road we took, we reached Kuala Tahan approximately 7 30am.

I have heard about how great Kelah fishing was in Sg. Tahan and took the chance to see what when how who sort of exploration in the trip.

I have to say I like the freshwater spots and enjoy every moment when we were sitting at our camp, chatting, and fishing became second in priority.

The process to reach these fishing camp site, however, was quite tough physically for me. Our boatman will stop before rapids and anglers shall either took a short jungle walk or rapids walk.

Journey to the destinated camp site took us about 2 30hrs, with a prompt stop at Kelah Santuary. No long after Kelah Santuary, we changed from long boat to smaller, shallow boat and boatman will row whenever he could.

We did spoon casting along our way up and JT was awarded with couple of juvenile sebarau.

I got a good hit on my spoon in one of my casts but was unable to set the hook. Recheck on my rig setup, I guess perhaps the treble hook that came together with killer spoon ULTIMA was too small.
