"The place is very interesting & reliable. Wheelchair is not a problem. U can go there to fish at the jetty & kelong too. Theres a homestay nearby."
Mozi Shah
"Been here twice and I don't mind coming here more often bcoz this place is quite comfortable, reasonably well kept with toilet & a kedai makan. Also got karaoke at night but the nights I've been here they were not open. RM5 per entry per angler for however long you want & as many rod you want. Can bring family & santai.
Don't expect big or many fishes but there are varieties, namely, siakap(rare), senagin, daun baru, gelama(most common), belanak, malong, sesirat, crab, sembilang, & more(can't remember their names). There are fishes near or far out the jetty
Best time to fish is when tide is almost at itz lowest all the way to high tide. At the start of low tide, water current is quite strong & can sweep even heavy sinking stones away & chances of sangkut is high as the tide bring lots of wood, branches & rubbish out. Usually morning is when low tide starts and noon to evening is high tide - u can google the water tides timing. Recommend to use stones weighing above 100g
Most anglers here use bottom fishing technic but worth trying float when tide is still (air mati) or at start of high tide. Those who use 10-15ft rod may find it a bit difficult to cast due to the atap shade.
There is a bait shop(just prawn) just 50m away. There is another bait shop(sells umpun umpun) not far frm here near jeti Mamod. Many cats here to keep you company & sometimes got monkey who will steal your food so beware. Come 7pm or when sky turns dark, mosquitoes will rule the place so remember to bring repellent if fish at night.
I enjoy fishing here even though not too many fish as itz very relaxing, the view is great, easy to move around & ppl are friendly here. Can order food in the evening when the cafe opens."
