Panda Gold, Red Tail Golden Arowana
Panda Gold, Red Tail Golden Arowana
The thrill of hooking and fighting these fishes reminds me of the days where I would go fishing everywhere, from bedok jetty to sembawang shipyard, from pulau ubin to sentosa and even under the bridge linking harbourfront(was once world trade center) to sentosa! damn damn dangerous! and I really missed fishing in the waters of malaysia, pulau Aur on a boat. Sea fishing is so fun! you'll get a huge variety of fishes!
Speaking of fishing off pulau aur, these are some old photos of me fishing at the waters near pulau aur, hooking a Dorado, or dolphin fish(NOT dolphin lah) on live yellow tail(selar).

Fish on!!
Dorado goes ballistic
Fish damn strong! stripping off the line from my reel in an alarming rate!
more jumps from the fish
fishie tiring out itself with short bursts of runs and finally I managed to bring it near the boat
closer look at the fish
My trophy!! A 15lbs Dorado! My first Dorado. and its a bull!
part of our catch during the trip. the floor is just littered with fishes!
I fought with this stubborn dorado which refuse to succumb to its fate for 30mins! I was using light tackle for the fun and the fun was too much as for the rest of the day my arm is so sore and cramped up that I couldnt fish much.
Those were the fun days... will be going for more fishing and prawning fishing as well! it is so addictive! once you start again, you'll never stop! haha






even borat agrees this gathering was fantastic! veh nice! i like!!
Jay Cutler. Mr O '07. smooth as shit. water retention. politics got him the title, not his physique.

Victor Martinez. great physique. but not so good conditiong. but enough to take the title from cutler.

Ronnie Coleman. Big Ron's last olympia. you could see what extreme heavy training and juices had done to his body over the years. Once a great great builder. No one can touch his achievements. No one.

Dennis Wolf. Another German builder. Some say he is the future. he is good. really good. but future? i doubt.

Mark Dugdale. I had to include him here cos he is one of my fav builder. Aesthetically pleasing. Great symmetry. pleasing lines and cuts. just too different from those mass monsters nowadays. Didn't place quite well in the O, but always a great builder.

lastly, this is our beloved German Freak Mass Monster Markus Ruhl, this would be his last olmypia too as he annouced retirement after the show. He would be always remembered for bringing those freaky proportions on stage.
Timberland Torrent waterproof pull-on leather boots
Nike Trainers for hitting the weights

Asics Tiger for hitting the streets ( err...but i think i bot 1/2 a size too small...)

and my latest acquisition... Nike Oregon Waffle! On 50% off leh...
shit...I really must stop buying shoes...for now....heheheh

What matters in life is what you do. Not how much shit you can talk. All we have is what we do in this life... if you're doing nothing, then you're just waiting to die.
