Milkfish (Bangus) Fishing In Coloong

Last weekend my friend and I did a double header milkfish fishing. For the past few weekends, we usually just fish on Saturdays, never on Sundays. Last weekend however was different. Our saturday fishing was absolutely horrible. We only caught one fish for almost 12 hours worth of fishing! We were really feeling terrible for it that we decided to come back the following day!

And come back we did!

We only went in the afternoon though as there were some things that needs to be done on Sunday mornings. This time however, we were really nailing it. Our bangus friends were putting up a huge fights which increased our excitement. Marlo, our Coloong buddy was helping us as usual.

In one of our catches, Marlo was handling the landing net when my friend caught a lively bangus. Marlo got surprised and he let go of the net into the pond. He actually chased after the landing net and jumped right into the pond. It was quite a sight. Too bad I didn't bring my camera with me.

We went home a few hours after satisfied and a few kilos of bangus heavier.  Our ruffled feathers were soothed and now were eagerly looking towards the next weekend for another round of fishing in Coloong.
