That's right .. It's that place . When I was young love to go there catch crabs .
Sembawang many flower crab, use to catch them at some rural area and will end up going home with a happy smile. Steam them while fresh is still the best and basic ways to makan.
Wow bro, never heard of this method..but am quite sure they works.TaLk about soon hock, that's my No.1 fishthe best crabbing spot when i was a kid was sembawang, any of those muddy water areas sure got nice crabs, bottom feeder. I perfected this bait technique, no need change bait one, i skewered & threaded a piece of beef to a hook & let it dry out in the sun until it was rock hard then use it for fishing bottom feeders like crabs, eels & even snakeheads. for snakeheads & soon hock it was the easiest fishing, just throw the line into any shady pond area in the morning & go to school, in the evening come back & lift the line, sure got one! they can smell the beef & no matter how long it's been in the water, it won't fall of the hook! try Fishypie.. Yolanda will have even more fish to makan
for the dining tabLe..ugLy on the outside, but damned good in bed..
Anyway, we went Sembawang as youngsters more for catching of fLower crabs..but sadLy they were getting
smaLLer in size over the years; and hence we stopped.
That's right I use to go there when I was younger too . Over there have season .. One night I can catch 2 buckets full of flower crabs . easy to catch .. Just step on them when you saw them and catch them with my bare hands
Tua pek kong is Queen fish, the one with 5 finger prints aLong it's body.Chinese seLdom consume them, either it's
because of reLigious beLiefs or some cLaimed to get rashes upon consumption.
That SiLver TrevaLLy shouLd be ikan tagai in MaLay..
i used to catch mat saleh chicks before when i was younger, those days the fishing grounds were the 5th floor bar at Holland Village shopping centre (UWC girls) & The Rainbow on Cuscaden Rd, the trick was not to be shy, just be friendly & chitchat, some of them just needed company.. happy days.
Use bare hand have to use glove when strolling along sembawang beach for flower crab. see this thread my hands very itchy already. Anybody into pond fishing?

Yes sembawang back in those days = Flower crabs, always go when there's no moonlight, sure get better catch! I use to catch snakehead & soon hocks with that method & my mother was very happy, but i sometimes came back with no fish & she would be very sad, have to go NTUC buy fish & back in those days she would complain say NTUC fish not fresh! alamak compared to my freshly caught fish of course no fight lah.
I use to have a friend who lived in Ponggol area & his father had a outboard & we use to go fishing off Ubin there, wah never had so much fun fishing, there was one area a lot of batu under the water & our line had 5 hooks & it wasn't uncommon for all 5 hooks to come up with snapper & grouper but it was a short lived period, soon after very little fish. :(
Not a fisherman nor an angler but used to join friends to Tampines pond during the seventies. Learnt from them the method (for grass carp) and landed a 20 kg carp in North America many years later. Crabbing - best place I`ve done this was inland canals in the Gold Coast, Queensland Australia. They have a good law there - gotta release female crabs which we abided.
Cheers!
Hands will be it itchy ? I didnt know but nothing happen to
My hand then cause I catch them without gloves . But step on it must wear shoes lah .
My dad took me fishing one Saturday - or rather poaching. We fished at Seletar Reservoir and caught a bucket full of Soon Hock (earth worms as bait). I tell you, the place is fucking teeming with Soon Hock, kept pulling up one after another until we got tired of it. I can`t remember the exact spot but he parked his car at some kampong and we walked quite a distance throught the undergrowth and forested areas. I remember he told me to prepare to run should the wardens show up.
Cheers!
Bro, can teLL me if it's true that Aussies' crab meats are more soggy than firm ?..hence they are not that popuLar
with Asians.
I use to go to old Tampines there for pond fishing, KNN bluff money one, on the weekends a lot of rich uncles with their mercedes would park there & bring out their big fishing rod & gear but i just pay 50cts to hire the kids bamboo pole with a fixed line, then secretly used my dried beef method tied to a stake on the side of the pond, at the end of the day when packing up time i would pull up all the soon hocks & the uncles ask me what rod i use & i showed them the 50cts bamboo pole!
had such a good laugh about it.
The crabs we got were m&d crabs - the same as what is called Sri Lankan crabs here. We steamed them and the flesh was no different than the crabs at seafood restaurants in Singapore. The difference is that we did not get any female crabs and hence no crab roe - maybe that could explain the less than desirable Ozzie crab, also, no one present was able to cook them Chilli or Pepper crab style. But I prefer them steamed anyway, just dipped into soy sauce with sliced red chillies.
Cheers!
freshwater & river fish ALWAYS tastes muddy becos of where they live, thats why you need to tank them in running water for a few days before eating just like in those good cantonese restaurants!
Yes remembered flower crabs at Sembawang park.
Another good spot of old was at the foot of the bridge supports when they were building the sheares bridge. Remembered hauling in gigantic prawns then.
