As I arrived from work, I just sat infront of the T.V. and watched a late afternoon game show with Lola Nene...

I then decided to go outside with my nephew when I noticed my old BC set-up near the wall at the back of the house.. I then decided to give it a try and practice my casting near the net where Barras were being held... After about 5mins. of casting, I thought my bait was caught to a rock or something when it suddenly started to peel the braid out of my reel and then a huge leap out of the water, it was a Haruan hooked on my bait... I then asked my Lola Nene to hand me the landing net near her office (kubo) :lol: cause I was not expecting any bites from my lure...

After about 3-5mins I landed this 1.8KG Haruan

My old BC set-up and my favorite lure..

After landing the Haruan, I thought there might be some more of those dalags lurking near the Barra net... Just as I thought.. Another Strike... Unfortunately it was "the one that got away".

It was certainly a memorable accident for me... :D

The fish was caught and released after taking pictures...

Cheers!

Thanks all! :)

Aling Nene's open almost everyday.. Although the fish are still small at the moment... It may take some time to grow those tilapias and barras...

Cheers!
