PAPUA NEW GUINEA on Board The K20!
Its been a looooooooong while since ive wrote anything on
this blog, you know la, being a daddy = less fishing + less money for gear +
less time for doing stuff that I really love to do. A few weeks ago, come good
friends of mine managed to convince me to go on a 10 day fishing trip to PAPUA
NEW GUINEA.
These guys have been asking me to go since last year but you
know la, procrastination, the fear of being away for so long, spending money
that I cant afford coz I have 2 kids now and believe me, they cost more than
Stella’s, Saltiga’s and rods put together. I actually officially pulled out of
the trip in January already but then you have this joker named Jack, Jack The
“Farn Hai” Ong and Jimmy The Baller Sow.
These 2 guys are people you should meet if you like fishing
and they wont take no for an answer. They’ve been to PNG a few times already
and they keep telling “YOU HAVE TO GO” it’s a “ONCE IN A LIFETIME” kinda shit
so one February night, I got a call from The Baller & Jack, asking me to
meet them in a Japanese restaurant in Jalan Batai.
When I got there it was like a scene from The Godfather, dim
settings, The Baller on his cigar, the Farn Hai with his ever convincing smile
and Okta, one of the gang from Indonesia. They call themselves, The Geng Hai’s
(The Powerful Pussy). It was nicely played, they orchestrated the whole thing
nicely, locked me down and basically told me, YOU are going to PNG. Nuff said.
The deal was sealed. We are going to P mafakkin N to the mafakkin G.
From this picture....u can pretty much guess who is who innit! Scene from The Godfather!
from L - R : Little Lamb Me, Jack The Farn Hai Ong, Ok i forgot this guys name, Okta and Baller
There are 8 guys on this trip. Darren Kublai Low, Jimmy The
Baller Sow, Jack The “Farn Hai” Ong, Batzerg, Princess Okta, Singaporean &
Han Solo. Ive met almost ¾ of the team already. The rest of the guys we will
meet in Melbourne. So the dates were set, 17 March 2017, Melbourne, 19th
March 2017 Papua New Guinea, Back to Melbourne on the 28th March and
then back to KL on 29th of March. SET. ON. LETS GO.

The next few days I wasn’t really sure what to expect,
seriously I was lost for a few days. Then I started to bring my gear out,
trying to figure out what sort of gear to pack. I watched videos on PNG and
there are some HUGE ASS GT’s in that place and this could be my chance to get
into the 40kg class or even better yet, 50kg class GT!!! The excitement was
killing me! PE 10 and above kinda gear!!! I fucking LOVE IT!
I watched fishing videos all day and all night, learning how
to tie a perfect Fucking Good knot, a GT knot and gear setups and shit for a
good few days. Feels like I was 29 years old again. Felt like a kid all over
again. Feels so so so so so fucking good! Excited like a little kid wei
magehai. I even got myself a tattoo of a GT that i always wanted for this trip! Kei Lan Best!
AWESOMENESS TATTOO done by my buddy SIMON DAVID from SHIPWRECK TATTOOS!
I packed and unpacked and packed and unpacked. Still not
sure what to bring. Some of them said bring 8 setups, some said 5, in my heart
8 was a good number coz im Cina like that. Up till today im still trying to
figure out what to pack. I haven’t been on a BIG trip like this for a long long
time.
Well anyways, I was in Singapore last weekend and so I
checked out my favorite outlet, Anglers Outfitters. They still have the best
shit there. Absolutely my kind of shit, Hot’s, SMITH, HAMMERHEADS and also new
lures, AMEGARI. These are some really really expensive lures. SGD175 each! Its
like almost RM600 a pop! As I wasn’t really sure what I needed, I just got
myself a few accessories from SMITH and some stickbaits. I really gotta start
packing.

Tonight I got some line sponsored by my buddy BONG. Some
