prawning!

MC, ZJ, Tess, Toto (the dog), Dear and I went prawning yesterday at Lakeside. We met there at 3pm yesterday and by golly, it's not cheap. They charge by per rod and it costs $26 per rod.
Dear and I shared a rod and we were off! We hooked some meat and threw the rod into the pond.

There were quite a number of people already prawning there.. mostly uncles and aunties, but there were some families with kids. The uncles, aunties and kids are all pros lor! they seem to be able to fish up all the prawns without much effort! 1 prawn, 2 prawns, .... as if the prawns are like damn hungry! but it's not our case leh!

Think we only successfully caught our 1st prawn almost 45 min later!! :p
There was an exceptionally cocky boy whom we all detest! He fishes for the prawns like a pro, and somehow, the prawns love him. He was on a prawning spree and then he started to hao-lian! haha... "so easy! you don't know meh? blah blah blah..." so cocky! can't stand him!

Prawning is seriously addictive! especially once you successfully catch a prawn! then you won't want to let go of the rod! haha... so in the end, Dear had to give in mostly to me, and let me play with it most of the time. hee..
At the end of 3 hours, the 5 of us, caught a whopping total of 12 prawns!!! Dear and I caught around 6-7 prawns i think!! YEAH!! hahaha... and we decided to BBQ it straight away!

We washed the 12 pathetic prawns b4 we placed them on the mesh. The naughty prawns kept jumping around! It wasn't easy to BBQ them at all! Even as they were already cooking on the mesh, they kept struggling and jumping! Almost jumped off the mesh and onto the ground! Luckily we had our tongs with us and we managed to keep them BBQ-ing~

p/s: as we are cooking our prawns, the cocky boy exclaimed "WAH! I caught 72 prawns leh!" >.<" Had he been my student, I'd have given him a piece of my mind! Really feel like beating him up man!!!

Finally, it's cooked and we can finally get to taste our catch! It's so fresh!!! YUMMY! And we placed order for some other dishes as we had our dinner there. What a fun outing! Can't wait to go prawning again! :)
