Happy holidays!

Indeed it was a good long holidays
Slacking at DarDar's JB house over the weekend
Ate all kinda good food which make me fat again
and went out with his Mum doing grocery shopping
Fun!

DarDar organized an offshore fishing trip at Changi Water
& this was our first time out fishing in the sea
Just few seconds after DarDar cast his line
He got his very first catch
& it's a 2kg orange spotted grouper!
Gradually every angler onboard have their catches

Jeremy scoped this jellyfish from the water
In fact
We saw quite alot of jellyfish in the sea
The water quality might be unhealthy

At this particular spot
Michelle's rod bent and at the same time Sunny's rod bent
Everyone rushed to help Michelle while I donno whatta do
& looked helplessly at Sunny while requesting for help
Sunny's line kept pulling so damn fast & he has no strength to pull his line back
In the end
The fish unhooked itself & let free

Sunny sian 1/2 after the escape of the huge fish
Michelle with her and DarDar's 2kg groupersJust few seconds after the 'drama'
I saw something flew out of the water
It was a spotted eagle ray!!!!!!!!!!!!
I WAS SO EXCITED!!!
but most of them missed it except for Jeremy
2 witnesses!
Others only heard an extremely loud splash

I was really damn high loh!
I never expect to see that elasmobranch in Singapore
Needless to specifically say it is an eagle ray!
& it was about 2m long wing span!!
FUCK SO BIG!!!
I went Tioman, Dayang, Aur cant even spot rays
But I see it in Singapore!!
What the!!!

For the 10 hours on the boat
Everyone just keep bringing up grouper from the water
& it seems like it's the breeding season for Serranidae
Sunny finally got a huge catch after the dramatic incident
& he got the biggest catch of the day!

Me & Sunny's 3kg grouper
Catches at the end of the day

Wah
So happening sia
Each of us took 2 fishes home
DarDar spent 1.5hr to slaughter 3 medium groupers & 1 giant grouper
Dad even got his finger pricked by the giant grouper's tooth while he was pulling his gills and teeth out of the mouth
*rolls eyes*
Gun cheong want eat grouper till injured

We chopped off the head and saved it for fish curry next time round
Still figuring how to cook curry
Really testing my culinary skills man...
& the body was steamed the Hong Kong style

Yum yum!
Sumptuous dinner at 9pm
& it's been long we eat such 'high-class' fish =)
