PRAWN AN EXPERIENCE
Just a week ago, it was boyfriend's birthday. I was hoping to do something different with boyfriend this time. For the previous two birthdays, it was like going out for a date, went for a movie and eat buffet. Eating Buffet was the highlight. In fact, we love eating buffet quite a lot. And in order for us to eat more, we literally starve ourselves and go with an empty stomach. Heh.:X
But this time, it was different. We went prawning during midnight. Too bad that we didn't have a car and so we cycled there.
HAI-BIN is located right at the end of punggol. It wasn't a tiring ride there. I eventually got tricked by boyfriend that it is still 3/4 far away from where we were cycling but in fact we have reached the location. It was my first ever trip! It was crowded as expected as it was a weekend. Started our prawning at around 2. Boyfriend taught me on how to handle the equipment if the prawn is on the bait. I tried quite sometime before I caught my first ever prawn!
The prawns that were caught were all placed in the basket. Most of the prawns were small in size. But we caught one that was..
This Big! (Argh, sorry for the poor resolution of the picture due to the fidgeting of the prawn, this is the best i could do) oh, see the princles? we need to pluck them out from each prawn that we caught. We spent quite sometime to pluck out this one.
Crowd got lesser and lesser each hour. Till 630 in the morning, we are the only one left there.
Prawned for an extra 30minutes before we returned the rod back. And we have caught a total of 34 prawns in 4hours! around 8prawns per hour It sound quite little but I guess its okay for a beginner? I heard from boyfriend that when he came with his friends, they can catch more than 50 prawns in a night. Thats ALOT! X.X
So, being prawn lovers, its time to bbq the prawns for breakfast! (;
(pictures shall do the talking!)
