South Taiwan Toman Weekend (5)
Spent two days in south Taiwan with the our Expat Anglers group hunting the wily giant snakehead (aka toman) at our "secret" honey hole. Quite a few fish caught and even more lost. I only managed to boat a 2 kg specimen, but other members of our group landed a 6kg and 7kg fish. Nothing I have experienced in fresh water so far compares to the explosive power of these fish. -
Lunar New Year Catches (10)
Warmer weather means the snakeheads are finally starting to wake up. Got a couple of striped snakehead at a pond near my house over the holiday. Also got a chance to take the kids to a bass pond in Yangmei. -
Autumn Blotched Snakehead (7)
Took new fishing friend William Ting to the fishing grounds we have been calling "Tombstone" because of its proximity to a hillside graveyard. It's is actually a system of small ponds rather than a single body of water. -
Blotched Snakehead (5)
Caught this nice 52 cm blotched on a mid-September morning. He inhaled a Stanley Ribbit frog right near the shore. -
Sunday Morning Snakehead (7)
I went back to a pond I haven't fished in years near my home and discovered that it's now overrun with big snakehead. These are striped snakehead, but I also spotted several blotched snakehead. -
GK and Duane's Toman Hunt (22)
GK and Duane Christie did a little giant snakehead fishing down south and not only hammered their target species, but also landed a mystery fish. Consensus seems to be that it is a particularly large top mouth culter, but we are still not absolutely sure. Any guesses. Thanks to the guys for letting me post these here. -
Spring Amberjack Jigging 2014 (29)
These are from our March 29, 2014 tip to Pengjia Islet with Derek from Jignesis. The main target was amberjack, but we also picked up a few bonito and dorado (mahi-mahi). A few of these shots were taken by me, but most were by Jeff Harris. Jeff shots blow mine out of the water. Thanks, Jeff, for letting my post them here. -
Mid-Autumn Toman (9)
Some shots from our southern Taiwan toman adventure during the Mid-Autumn Festival weekend 2013 -
Rainy Day Fishing (18)
I made an attempt with Austin and GK from Hsinchu to do a little coastal saltwater fishing near the Number 2 Nuclear Reactor northwest of Keelung. The weather was miserable the the conditions weren't right, so we headed to a bass pond in nearby Jinshan with much better results. -

These are some shots taken 10-30-2011 at the grouper pond in Jhunan, Miaoli County. -
