'Twas a beautiful day to head out fishing last week. A friend had a durian orchard with a small pond in it where we tried our luck fishing. Durian's were abundant! Fishes, unfortunately there weren't many...Though, my dad manage to catch a kg plus snakehead (haruan) !
Also, along with the haruan we managed a few baby tilapia...which a friend wanted for his aquarium. Seems they're the only breed of fishes able to survive in this tank :) We were hoping to catch a few marble gobies, as a few years ago, our failed stocked of them were thrown into this pond! We were experimenting with raring them to maturity for the commercial market. "Haruan bodoh" as it's known, does fetch a real fancy price in chinese restaurant. RM100 per kg!
Resident poultries on the loose... and the ubiquitous sheepdog lazing... :)
Here's a picture of us with one of the fruiting durian trees!
Ever wondered what a mangosteen plant looks like? This was my first encounter with one! Talk about city kids, lol!

Eh, my house in PJ had a mangosteen tree la, as well as a coconut, mango and jambu tree and a few others I dont remember already. So technically you've seen one before.
