DESCRIPTION:

 

About 400 km north of Singapore, lies a quiet small town by the river that leads to the South China Sea. The local malay fishermen catch the usual fish that you can see in the market for a living, but little do they know that there are many monster fish a sport angler will dream of lurking around in those waters.

 

There are wide patches of corals and steep dropoffs that make the perfect environment for bottom dwellers as well as pelagics species to thrive in. Some species are seasonal and when they travel from the vast oceans to cluster in this remote region, you will be in for an experience of a lifetime.
