My Mood:  Rep Power: 5  | Re: bottom fishing Hi there, Rompin is famous for its Sailfish while Pekan is Famous for its Ebek. But both grounds can hold the same target fish. The tackle which I would prefer will be PE 1-3 with 300m of 30lb braided line.This should do fine, even for the sailfish. Jigging and bottomfishing will be the main fishing unless U are going for the sailfish. Cheers Jason

My Mood: Rep Power: 5 | Re: bottom fishing Hi Bro, Like I say Rompin is Famous for its Sailsfish... The bottom fishing for Rompin is not as good as Pekan be cos some boatman at Rompin only target Sailfish as their main source of income. Many go to Rompin for Sailfish and they are easy to find compare to bottomfishing. I would say that both grounds are still fishable at the moment. With good boatman, U can expect quality service and better catch rate. Cheers Jason Quote:
