Prawn Fishing

Last Sunday, Hubby and I went to Jalan Kayu to have the famous prata, nothing really that fantastic though and their service sux big time.

We head down to Bishan for prawn fishing, something we have been talking abt but never have the time to do it. Since we were in the area, we decided to give prawn fishing a try.

Both of us happily paid for the rod and started to fish, but we didnt know how to really fish the prawn. The family beside us was really friendly, they thought us the technique to fish the prawn. After 0.5hrs, both of us had our first catch.

Some prawns came with 2 long pincher, when we try to remove the hook from the prawn, their pincher will will pinch you and will not let go!!!! The family were friendly enough to help us as we basically have no tools.

Next time anyone wanna go for prawn fishing, pls bring the following:

  1. Own Bait (Cockles are the best but provided farm allow it)

  2. Small Pliers (To remove the hook from the stubborn prawn)

  3. Cutter (To cut away the prawn's pincher)

  4. Paper Plate (Cos the farm we went didnt provide it)

  5. Styrofoam box (if you wanna bring the prawn back uncooked)

  6. Many Cash (Cos the farm we went only accept cash)


Hubby and Me (Pardon my no make up and oily face...)


Our Catch!!!


We fish abt 3 hrs and manage to fish 7 prawns.
$60 divide by 7 Prawns = These prawns are very expensive!!!
