Hi! I’m a passionate angler from Vietnam with years of experience fishing in natural waters and commercial lakes. I’ve also worked in the fishing tackle industry, where I developed a deep knowledge of fishing techniques, equipment, bait, and local conditions. I’ve explored fishing spots across Vietnam, especially around Hanoi and Northern Vietnam. Along the way, I’ve built strong connections with local anglers, fishermen, lake owners, and fishing communities. I’d love to share those places and the authentic Vietnamese fishing experience with visitors. Whether you want to fish a river, lake, or reservoir, or try the techniques local anglers use, I can help you find a place that suits you. For me, fishing is about more than the catch. It’s a chance to explore, meet people, share stories, and experience local culture. If you’re visiting Hanoi or Northern Vietnam, I’d be happy to welcome you for a day on the water. Come fish with me and discover Vietnam from an angler’s point of view!
