Went for my first ever fishing trip on last Friday with my mentor and dear tagged along as well.
My first ever catch: "Flathead" Fish (quite a big one)
2nd largest catch...
Always wanted to try fishing, just for the experience sake.
I picked up the fundamentals rather quickly, but I guess I'm not cut out for this activity.
Memories of my JCC training came back. It was a painful and reluctant experience to kill the Quail with my hands during the training.
Just can't get over the killing part in fishing, though its through indirect means on both the bait and catch.
Mum and Dad don't like the idea of me going fishing too. Mum refused to cook the fish that I had brought back after the trip, saying that it was the exact same species that she had released when the "master monk" was here in Singapore.
I was already feeling bad about the killing, and this just made it worse...
Anyway, I doubt I will be fishing again (or at least in the foreseeable future). Guess I'm more attuned to diving instead. Anyone interested to go for dive trips?
