On 27.th may we've been out on the mighty Mae Klong River, for an amazing stingray session. Returning austrian carpangler Andreas managed to hook into a enormous Giant Freshwater Stingray (Himantura Chaopraya).The epic battle took 40 minutes until our team netted the amazing beauty, with a diameter around 7ft and an estimated weight of over 220lb.The netted ray give birth to a juvenile whilst he was captured in the net.Congratulation to Andreas for this exceptional capture of a prehistoric creature.

Carp fishing slowed down as usual for the hot weather conditions in march and April, still a few specimen got caught but mainly small to medium size. Predators started to feed well and many good sized Alligator Gars, Redtail Catfish and Peacock Bass got caught recently even a few Giant Snakehead up to 6,5kg where caught whilst lure fishing.

It is not even eight o’clock and the sun is already beating down. I have missed the last two summers here and forgotten just how hot it gets. Having chosen my swim for the day, I am going to fish bungalow number four, I have set up two ledger rods, one with sausage and one on dead bait. I am really hoping for a fish early on because as the day wears on the chances of getting a bite decrease rapidly.It is not even eight o’clock and the sun is already beating down.

Amazing session for the dutch carpangler Mark Fekkes. During the week he spent at Dreamlake Fishing Resort, he caught a dozen Striped Catfish, lots of Rohu, 2 medium sized Siamese Carp and 2 of the very rare and shy Julian's Golden Price Carp. He tried his hand also on the predator fishing and succeeded in his quest with a fairly good sized Alligator Gar and a beautiful Peacock Bass, both specimen got caught by using a live bait near the surface.

It was still cold the first 2 weeks in january, with night time temperatures down to only 12 Celcius. Fishing at Dreamlake was not easy, the best results came in the late afternoons through until midnight. It was getting slowly warmer towards the end of the month and the fish definitely started feeding better. Lure fishing at the reservoirs was ok, with mainly smaller snakehead up to 2kg. There were some excellent results at Paradise Lake with loads of Striped Catfish and Mekong Catfish up to 28kg landed by our customers.
