Holiday Fun: Fish Farm

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 14 March 2008 in People & Portrait.

We decided to check out the fish farm at Pasir Ris yesterday and to our surprise,it was quite 'deserted' save for another few 3 or 4 other customers.

It costs $4 per pax to fish for half an hour in this elongated half metre deep pond.We were told by someone who has been there that he only managed to catch 2 fishes in the first half hour.We went and we decided to do the tyrannosaurus-rex tactic by cornering the fish and we managed to catch quite a lot!Caleb kept fetching water from the pond and pouring them onto the floor(and gt a scolding from us) until he also quite got the hang of it and caught 2 fishes by himself!Probably a fluke but it made him very happy when we praised him.

Hub also enjoyed the fish catching,for that morning,the litle boy in him returned and he was so happy with each catch,haha.

hahahaha how cute. ian's soooo adorable. i think he always has this really cheeky look on his face in most of the photos you've captured so far. so looks like your boys had a blast (okay not literally) at the fish farm!

This looks like so much fun for kids. You take them to so many interesting places. How lucky they are.

Oh the memories these wonderful shot's bring back to me, of when our boys were little. We would take them to places like this, it was so much fun, for everyone.
Although we did go to a salmon farm once and Adam was throwing in the food whilst trying desperatly to get a better view of the feeding frenzie, he toppled over and ended up with the salmon lol, he imerged from the shallow water, covered in green slime, he looked like the creature from the black lagoon :D
Thank you for sharing your wonderful day out and bringing back some really happy memories for me :)
I love the expression on Calebs face, he looks so pleased with his catch.
