BKK Fishing Tour – Snakehead Pond Fishing 

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.

My guide John was very experienced. He delivered on all promises and I really enjoyed fishing with him. He provided all the gear and assisted you througout the process. I highly recommend him if you want to make memories that last. Another thing, the lunch offered on the trip was fantastic, Pad Thai (chicken or prawns).

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.

John is the real deal. He knows the behavior of each targeted species which is 50% to a successful fishing day. He knows the fish location like his backyard and when they will bite best. John will put you on fish.

John was a super guide, knowledgeable, patient. He worked hard to catch fish and create a great experience. 4 new species to me caught. Awesome introduction to fishing for my fiancé.

Fishing guide John was excellent! He helped explain all the fishing packages, easy booking very friendly, and knowledgeable. We caught every species of fish available. John taught me all the techniques and tricks to make sure we caught a lot of fish. Above and beyond service and great photography to top it off.

Thank you everything for John! I had a very good time with him, he knew everything about the fish there. He had nice equipments also. I caught 3 snakeheads, 2 barramundis, 2 Chao Phraya catfish over 1m, and more strikes. I would recommend for everybody who wants to catch these species.

We fished all species and landed a gaint catfish. John set me up to catch fish all day, and we caught the most fish of any fishermen there. Highly recommend!

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!

Booked the fishing tour for my girlfriend and I, not only was our guide really patient and willing to help my girlfriend basically learn how to fish but was very passionate about it as well. He has us running from one pond to other to make sure we caught as many fish as possible! Would recommend to anyone wanting to have an amazing fishing experience here in Thailand.
