Captaij Tiger is super patient and knowledgable. we are a group of 5 novice female anklers and he guided us all the way in this trip. we had to rent the rods because the preferred rod lenght for boat fishing n is 5.5 to 6ft. ours are longer (more for pier fishing according to Captain Tiger). The package came with a large tank of live prawns, more than enough for your full day trip (8am-5pm).
our trip is end July, so expect rain and thunderstorm. Captain is nice to adjust and accommodate our request to return to the Marina as the rain was really heavy. Once the rain settled, we resumed fishing and caught 2 x green-eye groupers (2.5-3kg) and good size golden snappers. One highlight - we had twice double hook-ups!
The finale of our trip was enjoying our catch at the chinese restaurant at Raffles Marine with Captain Tiger. The Chef steamed the large grouper and deep fried the large golden snapper (preocessing fee per fish is $40). the coffee pork ribs dish is nice too.
We focused so much on not getting seasick that we forgot to prep for the waiting part of fishing. Pack some cherries and blue berries, snack on small cheeses and pre-pack sandwiches or onigiri.
The boat has a clean toilet 3 sprays for washing your hands and cool your feet (if the weather is hot).
Great space for 5 pax.
Highly recommend Captain Tiger!
