Game Fishing
Malaysia is a prime tropical paradise and a top game fishing
destination. Endowed with a wide variety of marine and inland
angling locations, Malaysia hosts a plethora of fish species in
both environments.
The tropical seas surrounding Malaysia sustain most tropical
game fish species including the king of the seas - the black and
the blue marlin. Yellowfin, bigeye and dogtooth are found in the
deep water areas, and there are many more fish to catch
including the wahoo, giant trevally, cobia, narrowbarred

anglers’ skills to the limit. The Malaysian Red Mahseer, the
ferocious Giant Snakehead and the Hampala Barb all have
superb fighting qualities.

Off we go heading to the mangroves. On the way there
we see one Irrawaddy dolphin. We slow the boat down to
get a better glimpse of the dolphin. Perhaps there are
more around. We idle for a couple of minutes but we
don't see any more. I think the dolphin is shy, or could be
avoiding us. Hey, baby herring are following us. They are
jumping out of the water along side the boat. This is
neat!
There he is. Do you see him? In the trees. The
Proboscis monkey. You know, the one with the long
nose. Where? Where?
