[Kata Beach]
Phuket is the one of finest spot for holiday in Asean.
You can get lots of marine activities, snorkelling, diving, jet skiing, banana boat and so on.
For myself, yes I'm surely seeking FISH though.

FYI, Just get rental-bike for access to any area of this island.
Depends on models, rental cost is bit different.
I got Yamaha Nouvo 150cc on 150 THB /day.

Western guys like Honda PCX and I recommend you.
It provides you with chilling window on comfortable seat and suspension.

Well, let's find out where I can do "shore-jigging".
In this trip, I don't take any boat, I wanna see fish on surf/rock/port.
Just walked around Kata-beach, I could see some of rock area in south area.

This point is "B mark" as below.

The point looks OK!
Expecting rock-fish or some of fish-eaters.

But be careful, this is one of snorkelling spot...
While I did fishing, around 10 snorkelling guys swimed over here.
We angler don't have to harm anything, anywhere, anytime.
First, I used Top-water, named "Kenpop", Popper made by Kencraft.
I've used this lure for over 18 years, love you much.
Thank you for following me always, I won't miss you.

When I nearly gave up the topwater,
I saw something finally chasing behind my Kenpop.
It didn't bite well, so I slow down the speed.
God,,,, I wanna see the fish.....
FISH ON!!
Horaaaaaaaaaeeeeey

I've seen this scene couple times, needlefish are not good at biting.
I'm sorry,, but good to see you here in Phuket!

Well, topwater game was succeeded.
Mission complete.
Let's shift into Worm game, initially jig-head,light-green grub.

Baby grouper!
Thanks for biting!
This is the last fish I got first day in Kata-beach.
All fishes are released to sea, see you again.
There were some guys who did "Eging".
You know, special lure for squid.

Local Thai guy said,
"This place used to be nice fishing spot, but many foreigners took too much fish"
"Now there are only few spots are nice to fish, others dead"
