The move has begun…

Hi Dear Readers,

Sorry for the long delay and my unwelcome hiatus at writing in this blog. I have been busy lately…actually, extra busy since a lot of things have been going on. Finally, I had the chance to move the blog to its new domain, our very own www.ValenzuelaFishing.com. Thanks to JL for hosting this new home.

Be forwarned that I am going to make it a “work and progress” blog..so expect it to be the ugliest, most basic website..for now. Aesthetics would have to give way to content.

See you there!

Moving…moving…moving!

I am moving this blog to it’s own domain: www.ValenzuelaFishing.com! Please bear with me as I rearrange the contents and add new ones.

I hope that you keep on visiting and stay with me as we work hand in hand with other organizations in promoting fishing in Valenzuela!

lets move as one

It was a Cold and Windy Cookout

Windy and cold day yesterday but the group still pushed through with the mini tourney and cookout. Although there were several “indyans” in the sign up sheet (raise your hands gentlemen ), we still shared good company.

Hero or zero? Bites have been slow at Kaps

We went to Coloong last Saturday. First, we went to Aling Nenes to try the barra pond. However, since the wind was blowing really hard, Jaime and I struggled in paddling the boat with just one oar.

Bites are slow at Kap Larry’s but some still get lucky

The bite has reportedly slowed down at Kap Larry’s, apparently since they have recently harvested the ponds. I think its a bit of a bad news for anglers who want to catch fish for New Year. The fishes that they could have caught have already been conveniently harvested and are ready for selling..hehehe. Not that exciting as catching your own in my opinion.

Fishing is an expensive hobby….NOT!!!

In the “olden” days (well, when I was a still a kid), fishing used to have the reputation of being a sport for the rich. Rod and reels were considered “imported” items which the common Filipino cannot afford.

Valenzuela, May Disiplina!!!

Valenzuela City’s motto is “Valenzuela, may Disiplina!“. And this is no mere slogan. The city government is serious about making Valenzuela a better city. Bikers without helmets are apprehended, men walking around shirtless are not tolerated and littering is a no no.

An EB with other fishing crazed forumers from Motorcycle Philippines

Last Saturday, I went on my recon mission to scout Tagalag and Coloong. Obetrj and I agreed to meet at Aling Nene’s after lunch. I got there at around 1 PM and texted obet that i was already in the area. Beep beep. “Dito kami sa kubo”. When I turned my head towards the huts, they were no familiar faces. Just two guys waving with a ready smile. 8)

Responsible Catch and Release

Responsible Catch and Release in Pond Fishing

You wanted to help in conserving the fishery. You caught a small barramundi and decided to release it back. You haphazardly get the hook off of its mouth and quickly toss it back to the pond with the hope that it will grow bigger to fight another day. But did you do it right?

Apahap (Barramundi) from Aling Nene’s Pond

Below is a trip report from a fellow forumer at filipinoanglers.org:

I was trying to target dalags in Aling Nene’s pond but the dikes were full of anglers and I can’t cast on the edge of the water. Not wanting to waste a good day of fishing, I decided to try their famed Apahaps.
