Gone Prawning!

Pa Pa decided to take me and Mummy to try out a new activity - Prawning (aka prawn fishing)!

As usual, I was all enthusiastic to be going "gai gai" with Pa Pa and Mummy as we packed our sandwiches and drinks and left the house early for Punggol Marina, without any expectations of whether we'll be able to catch anything...




<-- Picture of me and the pond





Ever wonder how prawns are caught at these ponds???
.....
Nope, you can't use a net....
.....
...And you definitely can't do this....












.
(In case you are wondering, that is NOT my Pa Pa trying to fish for prawns...ke ke)
Well, here. you have to use a rod, line and hook. (otherwise the operator will go out of business..)

Watching Pa Pa trying his luck...

That's me having a hand at prawning...

Helping Pa Pa to look out for the prawns...

Eventually, we did catch something....

Our overall catch.....8 Prawnies!!! (2 by Mummy and 6 by Pa Pa)
