It was great to meet and fish with Jon. Clear communication throughout the process, door-to-door service from my hotel, and had all the gear we needed and then some (extra poles for each scenario rigged and ready to go, so no fishing ime lost over snags, broken lines, etc). The fishing was pondside with a stocked supply of fish, so the only thing I had to do was listen to Jon, learn which lures, baits, casting methods, and action in the water was necessary to catch each kind of fish—four big species, and each had different techniques for success. Jon took the time to explain each, demonstrated what to do, and then it was on. Had a great day, and there was food and drink available from the kitchen next to the pond. Nice man, too, not just a great guide. Recommend this to anyone in town for a visit, who wants to dip out of work or take some time on vacation to catch some local species with a local expert.

what an amazing time with captain john from bkk. he picked me up from my hotel in bangkok and we headed to the lakes. caught all of the major species and john had all the gear pre-loaded and ready to go! had a great time and his knowledge of the ecosystem made all the difference as many others fished and were unsuccessful. all the fish fought hard and the experience was so much fun! highly recommend if you have a half day in bangkok and you love fishing.

We just wrapped up an incredible day of fishing, and I couldn’t recommend John enough as a guide. He truly knows his stuff and put us right on the fish from start to finish.
The variety of species we managed to catch was outstanding! We landed pacu, a challenging and fun fight, a couple of impressive snakeheads, a powerful catfish, and the highlight for me— barramundi. Catching four different major species in one trip is a testament to John’s expertise and knowledge of the local waterways.
John was professional, patient, and made the entire experience enjoyable, whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner. If you’re looking for a successful and diverse fishing trip, book with John—you won’t be disappointed!

Great communication with John regarding the fishing trip.  As I haven’t done a great deal of lure fishing, the Pilot 111 lakes were the place for me for the Snakehead trip. Morning fishing is the best here just now, with the afternoon too hot for the fish to really feed. Having said that, you can get a good solid 6+ hours of fishing in that time. John will look after you and make sure you are using the most appropriate bit of kit for the fish you are after. As this is a purely catch and release pond, the fish can be tricky to catch, but the owners do make sure you get the chance to hook up, and John makes sure you are in the right spot. The rest is always up to you ;) 2 x Snakehead, 2 x Barramundi, 4 x Pacu and 1 x Chao Pharya! Thanks for a great trip John and company! I hope to be back for more fishing with you, perhaps Arapaima!

John ist zu 100 prozent darauf fokusiert das seine Kunden fische fangen. Ausserdem macht er shr gute Fotos und Vidos die er dem Kinden zur verfügung stellt.
Ich habe einen tollen Tag mit ihm verbracht.
Vielen Dank für ieses Erlebnis.
