Yesterday, went fishing with Jonathan and his fishing buddies. We had loads of fun!! We headed to Weymouth, a rocky beach and started our quest to fish Leatherjacket.
The first few catch was small Bass and Puffer Fish by the rest of the gang. I caught nothing but a few bits and it is gone. A few tries later my bait was gone. Hell I am feeding the fishes! Then a few times, my line got caught between the rocks! That is the fun of rock fishing.
It’s a catch! Nono... it’s just stuck... duh...
Then a moment came. My first catch!
A yellow Leatherjacket!
We caught in total 2 big and 3 small Leatherjacket. I caught a small one though. The name speaks by itself. The skin is leathery and it has to be skinned. It also has a horn on its head which is already been cut off after the catch and has extremely strong jaws and teeth which can break stones. The smelly part will be to degut the fish. Its internal organs will decompose faster therefore it has to be taken out asap to keep the fish fresh. It looks delicious after the cleanup. What’s for dinner tonight? One herbs grilled and maybe another with Sambal Blachan? Yummy!!
