    Chanos-chanos

    November 2006
    Location: Kuantan, Pahang

    Rod: Abu Garcia Conolon
    Reel: Daiwa Laguna
    Line: STERN braided 15lb
    Bait: Gardenia bread


    Managed to sneak into the area at 10.00pm and start throwing some bread into the pond (connected to the sea via small channel) to 'bribe' them...
    Start fishing when the species playing around the spot with their splashing and jumping just above the water...

    Waiting for at least 15 minutes, my bait has been taken, with instant run and sprint non stop until near the opposite bank he stop...fighting with the lighty take at least 20minutes and managed to land it,weight 7.5kg, catch some photo and release.

    Best fight with lighty and first time land the species on land...

    Will sneak again into the spot....

    Firstly welcome or wannakam to Fishing Outing bro. Good work on the chanos-chanos also known as bangus in Philippines. They are strong fighters and i believe the one you caught must have put up one hell of a fight.

    Cheers

    Edy ,

    Don't think it's a freshwater fish , more like estuary species . We call it Bandeng in Indonesia but not the species raised in the commercial ponds , this chanos chanos is the wild species and they share the name Milk Fish .
