A few weekends back, I managed to get my long awaited, sand, sun and the sea. It was pure heaven and exhilarating experience. Didn’t go anywhere far except Batu Layar, and undeveloped beach near Desaru which not many knew about, luckily.

And this time, I brought my fishing rods even though it was almost 2m long.. My smaller rod went MIA suddenly on me so I had to no choice but make do with what I have. Like Desaru, the beach has a few banks. The normal bank that is usually untouched by the water unless there is a real high tide, the normal bank and lastly, the Outer Banks.

I would usually stick to the middle bank for swimming since the water will only be mid-chest high during normal tide and stretches out one kilometer away before it plunges down to the deep ocean. Since the place is littered with coral reefs and rocks, alot of yummy fishes (snapper) can be found swimming alongside with you during the day.

Unfortunately, that day the weather was quite unpredictable and the waves were so strong that I was pushed off my feet a few times. Furthermore the waves that came crashing down on me literally were quite high and if would a surfer’s new destination.

Luckily, Mr Sun wasn’t smiling too much on us and the only thing that was burnt was my bait. No fishes for me the whole day although I nearly caught 2 large ones. Haiz…

Still going to get my fishes soon.
