Another King Prawns Defeated..!

This afternoon we went for another king prawn fishing also at the Belait river...though our catch is far less than before but this time we managed to catch the largest king prawn that we ever catch before...!

Osman opening his account with this large king prawn...

This is our record catch...a 300g king prawn!

The king prawn stretches almost 2ft in length....!

Look at those long claws...are they called claws or pincers?? ok whatever...this large king prawn gave a tremendous fight and we were surprised when it finally landed inside the boat that it was actually only get hooked on one of those small legs...what a luck!

Which one is bigger the one on the left or the one on the right..?

Syazni's king prawn on the right...Osman's king prawn on the left...or the other way round???

Fresh Water Prawn Fishing Trip

This morning we went for a fresh water prawn fishing at the Belait river by boat...there were five of us. On arrival at the boat pick-up point near the Rasau bridge, we were greeted by an unexpected & uninvited creature...it was a 1 meter long crocodile! On seeing our presence it quickly make way and vanished under water...
