Uncovering West Kalimantan's Game Fishing

Fulfilling my passion for fishing exotic game fish, this time I have made a trip to Pontianak, Kalimantan of West Borneo to explore a bit together with the local anglers......
Image
Local anglers had showed me their river in this region where they had a good catch recently of the Giant Catfish "Tapah".... What a nice black water river....

A small village along the river....

 Tedy, the local angler has caught a small Tapah (Wallago Leeri).... Nice! Way to go!...
Image
 "Bagahak" the toothy catfish, claimed the locals....
Image
 Caught a "Baung" with a minnow....
Image
Yes! Terrific!! A Bagahak for me too!.....
Image
Image
 Look at it's awesome teeth.... Scary huh?!!

There was not sufficient time during this trip....  Will be back for more some other day..... Wait for me Abas!....
