Prawnie galore!

everyone caught at least one (even me!!) .. joey i think caught the most, she's a natural!

the pond's got pond scum, the bait which was chook liver and sea worms, the prawnies, and yeah that's joey with her rod, she caught at least 15!

Fishing .. frankly bored the heck outta me, went once quite a few years ago and nearly keeled over with boredom..yesterday was another story altogether .. we went prawning! Yup you've read it right .. there is such thing .. and nope its not as yucky as one thinks ..

I pretty much enjoyed it once I was there though ..

The prawn farm was somewhere near the desa water park .. but the great thing is they have food there .. and available food is always a good thing innit?

Prawning is pretty much similar to fishing .. maybe except that it's so much easier .. even klutzy and unsporty me caught one ;-)

Ok now for the math;
1 kg prawns from Tesco would cost one about RM40


We spent;
RM 180

breakdown of costing
3 rods @ RM15 per rod/hour ..
we were there for 4 hours last evening
and caught a total of 1.5 kg of fresh prawns

But all in good fun .. it was (it pains me to say this .. but it was fun!, ok i've said it, it's heckuva lotta fun!) .. will I do it again .. possibly yes, but maybe not on a weeknight ..

So guess what are we having for dinner tonight ..? We're all heading to Barbara's tonight to dine on our catch!
