How fishing hooked me
I was an undergraduate then, my very close friend approach me once, driving his Mini-Minor 125GT, with a very big smile, he yelled, you got nothing strumming that Yamaha guitar, my friend!!( which belongs to my brother-in-law). Got a big pail? Lets go..! I'll bring you to a place where you'll remember for life...Come..! Come..!
Like an idiot(phew..i was) following him without knowing where we were going. He was silent all the way, with that big cheeky smile on his face, he said, be ready..! we are going to catch and load that pail(size that could fill up 10 liters of water) with tons of fish!!! Yup...we're going fishing...! and fishing that is...!
And that very afternoon, we caught lots of it(Tilapias) till it jumps all over his passenger seat. Gosh...we came home smelling like fismongers!
Fishing Tilapia at the lake of Section 10, Petaling Jaya, Selangor was so much fun then. The minute you throw your fishing line and a hook fed with an earth worm, it got bitten and zapped, you got it hooked.
Just imagine the two of us standing by the lake for less than an hour or so? Yes, it did..! It did scar my memory for a very long time and till now, fishing is a MUST to me for the least ONCE in a week.
Worst is, i got my whole family into fishing as our hobby. Whatever and where ever destination we head, i'll make sure that theres water that we can go fishing. Be it freshwater or salted water.
Yes...it hooked me alright!
My very good friend Raja Azhari, where ever you are, thanks friend!
