Saltwater..started fishing with bottom technique

I've started saltwater fishing with a bottom technique. With mullet, sardine, squid and many other as a fresh/live baits. These pics collection was about 2-3 years ago when all the light jigs wouldn't worked in a fast current...definitely need a weight(batu ladung) approx. around 350gm up to 900gm. It is heavy!!!! sometimes it might heavier then a fish that we caught!

Locally known as Jan or Mayong and most probably different depends on districts.

Delicious Jenahak/Golden Snapper

Known as Umpak in Sarawak...some says Gerut-gerut

Biggest Manchong i've ever caught 

Ketarap/Bayan

Some collection of Red snapper

Ikan Kaci/Minyak

Another golden snapper...its hard to catch a good size golden snapper nowadays. 

I caught 2 sting rays of a same size in a row at this trip

Freshwater lures casting/fishing in Sarawak, Island of Borneo (Quest for Hampala, Tor and Channa)

Another adventure of mine.......more to go before i get to all the remote area and i guess 50% of the objective will be about fish.

The last longhouse in the suburb area before we really can reach our destination.

Can't help myself but to dive into a cold river to refresh.....

More on micro jigging fishing techniques

Some other nice moments from our micro jigging fishing trip in Sarawak, Malaysia. Jigging techniques are variable from slow, medium and fast jigging. What other factors that might influence the result? Definitely water tides, jigging action, jig types, jig colours and of course passion! 1000 cast 1000 chances.

It doesnt matter if the jigs are cheap or expensive. For me its still based on individual touch and how u present it(jig action & tempo). 

Seriously every anglers have their own favourite jigs. Some jigs such as IMA ganpeki, IMA Ichimatsu, Storm Skarp, Spike, Shout Shab2 and the cheapest jig by White Rabbit MJ2000 did well especially at night.
