Black Carp

The Black Carp or Black Chinese Roach is a species of cyprinid fish indigenous to China, and widely cultivated for food and Chinese medicine. It is the sole species of the genus Mylopharyngodon. The black carp grows to a length of up to six feet (2 m), and over 220 pounds (104 kg), generally feeding on snails and mussels. Black carp, together with bighead, silver, and grass carps, make up the culturally important "four famous domestic fishes" used in polyculture in China for over a thousand years, and known as "Asian carp" in the United States. Black carp are not as widely distributed worldwide as the other three.
In China, black carp are the most highly esteemed and expensive foodfish among the four domestic fishes, and partly because of its diet and limited food supply, is the most scarce and expensive in the marketplace.

Common Carp

The common carp is a widespread freshwater fish of eutrophic waters in lakes and large rivers in Europe and Asia. The wild populations are considered vulnerable to extinction, but the species has also been domesticated and introduced into environments worldwide, and is often considered an invasive species. It gives its name to the carp family: Cyprinidae. It is on the List of the world's 100 worst invasive species.

                 I'm Lucky to Caught Some at Malaysia  :)   Maybe this common carp's in Malaysia are small but they are a good fighter. Small and Strong!

Pacu Fishing

Pacu is a common name used to refer to several common species of omnivorous South American freshwater fish that are related to the piranha. Pacu and piranha don't have similar teeth, although the main difference is jaw alignment; piranha have pointed, razor-sharp teeth in a pronounced underbite, whereas pacu have squarer, straighter teeth like a human in a less severe underbite, or a slight overbite. Additionally, full-grown pacu are much larger than piranha, reaching up to 0.9 m (3 feet) and 25 kg (55 pounds) in weight, in the wild.

Pacu is a term of Brazilian Indian origin. When the large fishes of the Colossoma genus entered the aquarium trade in the U.S. and other countries, they were erroneously labeled pacu. In the Amazon, the term pacu is reserved to smaller and medium sized fishes in the Metynnis, Mylossoma and Myleus genera.

In Malaysia have some Pacu as well! Last time South America  export to Malaysia!

I have caught a few Pacu as well :)

What Makes Me Like Fishing



Hallo everyone! I'm here to share my Fishing experience to you! I hope you enjoy it :)

That picture is when i was 10 years old!


What makes me  like fishing?

I am truly intoxicated with this sport because I have acquired much knowledge from it. From astronomy to geography, experience the wild and nature of mother earth and understanding the habits of individual living creature (especially fishes). I started fishing when I was 5 years old.

The biggest benefit I gained from this activity is that fishing enhances my physical fitness and my intellect gives me a great chance to get in touch with nature, a place to release my tension and fill my poor lungs with fresh air. Such a "wholesome" and "enrich" activity that I will continue to love it and will never give up on this .



Countries and places that I have gone fishing before?

I do not have much experience of fishing abroad. However, I do have many great fishing experiences within my native country - Malaysia; I have travelled across a number of well-known fishing spots in Malaysia.

Just to name a few of my "salt water" fishing areas: Off the coast of  Melaka, Crab Island, Pangkor Island, Tioman Island, offshore of Rompin, and Pekan
