RE: Birthday, Work and Some Fishing

in #birthday8 days ago

Wow! You have been working very hard during your birthday!
However, you had a lovely birthday and very yummy ice cream! I bet you had finished it already!
The fishing break was quite rewarding! The cooked fish looked very delicious too. Some of the catch were quite big!
I wish I had a lake nearby to learn how to fish.

Hope you’ll have an easy and relaxing weekend.

Haha the ice cream still in work freezer. Hopefully i remember to take home tonight, haha.

The fish was indeed delicious and I'm thankful to enjoy it in Asian cuisine. I did have one of my better outings this year catching this particular species.

You have a beautiful river near you to fish at. River fishing is fun and is a little more challenging but certainly worth it. I hope you can enjoy fishing one day 😊

I hope I will have a full work free coming weekend. I really need it to recover a bit. Take care!

Oh! You haven’t finished the ice cream! Then I could help you with half of it! 😂

The river here is quite a dangerous place for unskilled fishermen. The currents are too quiet and strong. The big fish are in the middle of the river at about four to five meters deep. I have to be at skill fly fishing to be able to catch the big fish!
Some villagers went fishing in their long boats in the afternoon. These fish do fetch high prices!

Any larger river can be dangerous. Currents and undertows can take lives of even experienced swimmers.

I use to watch a show called River Monsters. I learned from that show that Thailand had large freshwater stingrays in some of its rivers. I think I saw Mekong and red tail catfish there as well. All fish I would love to fish for and catch.

Oh the ice cream got hit yesterday. It's about half gone, come on over and have the rest, hehe

I think that ice cream has gone by now.
Two months ago, a local fisherman disappeared from the river with his long boat. He’s very experienced fisherman. He phoned his son to get him some gas as the engine was low on gas. By the time his son arrived at the river, his father’s boat was gone.
The boat was found over 100 kilometers away by some villagers. He was drown in the river. The news came as a shock to the village. The currents were too powerful that day.

Nope still some left, I've been busy enough and it has slipped my mind, haha.

Oh yes many happenings of drowning in the river near me as well. Flowing rivers can be dangerous and caution should always be on one minds!
