Last night, a group of Pingsters gathered for some prawning fun at Hai Bin Prawn Fishing. Here are my takes for that night.
7.20pm Arrived at Bishan to grab some snacks and picked up Chaozdingo.
7.45pm Departed Bishan and headed to Hai Bin in Abang’s car.
7.55pm Arrived at the carpark and waited for a parking lot
8.05pm Found a lot and got off the car. Wondering if we were at the right place.
8.06pm SMS Krisandro to confirmed and spotted Arzhou. Waited together for arrival of remaining group…
Okok! This post is not going to be that boring lah! Hahaha! Here’s a fastforward of last night… with photos of course!
Wendy!! Lucky girl! (with BF Keith)
Soon after, Kitty (Daphne) caught one too!
with her prize catch
Psss… other than this shot, most of the time she’s complaining how sad the prawns were and that we shouldn’t be torturing the fish. Kitty didn’t really like the fishing process wor, thought cats like to catch fish? :P
Whenever a fish was caught, the girls will be calling or screaming for help and the guys, Arzhou, Shotgun and Krisandro will come to the rescue.
Arzhou to the rescue!
The night was pretty slow due to the lack of action over at our 5 rods. And the blur me was caught catching birds TWICE! last night! It was damn embarrassing lah! I swung my rod too much and the line got caught on the metal tent the first time. So I swapped place and went to the other side with no metal tent above me, but I still managed to get my hook hooked to the net covering the pond lah!! Wah lau!!! The man (pro-prawn fisher) next to me must be laughing inside lah! Why this woman so stupid one!
After 3 long hours plus plus of prawning, here’s our caught at my side…
Claud 3, Arzhou 1 + 1 in another net
When we were BBQ-ing the catch, we saw this group of kids with their catch lah! Wah lau eh!! BIG stabbed into our hearts lah! They caught sooo many loh!
Arzhou skewing the prawn
(Prawn was still alive and kicking!)
After 20-minutes of BBQ-ing, here’s our cooked prawns!!
1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… 7…
Why only 7 prawns??? Let’s check…
Claud caught 3 prawns, Arzhou caught 2, Daphne caught 1, Wendy caught 3 and Krisandro caught 4 but let go 2 as they were tiny. How many prawns should there be?
It’s 11 prawns leh!!!
But why were there only 7?? Can anyone please help explain the mystery of the missing prawns???
Alright… continuing with more photos…
Being a Saturday night and with the Euro Football heat, the place was packed with men with beer watching the match…
And here’s Arzhou who’s allergy to prawns but came for prawning, came to our rescue whenever we caught a prawn, helped BBQ the prawns but CANNOT eat any of the prawns!!
So he posed with the prawn head after we ate them

Ending note after my first experience at prawning…
- Use cockles as bit! The chicken liver provided is useless!
- Don’t keep moving your bit in the water. Let it stay still and prawn will come eventually.
- Don’t swing the rod up into the sky, else you’ll end up catching birds instead!
That’s all! Thanks Krisandro for organising and introducing fishing to us! I think I want to go back again! When’s the next one huh?? Perhaps a Yebber one this time? :P
