      Hi Jr, thanks for your comment unfortunately we have moved from Calauan to Cebu City. You can fish the Mabacan River in Brgy. Mabacan, Paliparan or Perez. You can catch eels, tilapia, carp, snakehead, and many other kinds of fish. Good luck!

    Hi, my name is Glenn. I’m a fishing guide in Australias northern territory where i fish for sailfish, barramundi and many other fantastic sport fishes as well as writing articles for some magazines. I’m coming to mactan for my honeymoon on the 23 october 2012 and I’m keen to go for a fish, preferably freshwater with some quality guides/local fishermen or at least get some info where i can go and try for myself. any help you can give me would be fantastic.

    Hi, my name is wesley, and i will be moving to sablayan on mindoro occidental, soon, i was discussing fishing with my future father in law,and decided to check out what may be avaliable there. I was wishing that snook were native to the mangroves, as i have very fond memories of snook fishing up the guantanamo river in cuba. I have not fished in many years now, and i currently live in northeast oregon. i am anticipating fishing in warm weather very much. Thank you for your excellent web site, outstandingly done, sir! Cant wait to get back to the tropics!………wes

    Hi ben, we’re very impressed with the rod we bought and how convenient and fast it reached us. I would just like to ask what is the line weight of this crony galaxy 5’7″ rod? Super thanks. – agnes

    Hey Ben,
    Do you know of a specific map or document that gives the location of protected marine areas in the Philippines?

    I noticed fishermen walking along shore and pulling a wooden trolling module. I would like to get a picture of such so I can make one.

      Ed,

      Yes those devices are planers. You can Google that and see various types of fishing planers used around the world. They work best along beaches. The ones we have seen look like little banka boats. The important thing is where you attach the the line that you hold to get the right and for the boat to plane parallel to the shore. We will try to post a picture when we see one.
