The Asian Angler August 2014 Digital Issue - Malaysia - English | Page 20

My fellow anglers and friends, Selamat Hari Raya to all celebrating. We’re now in the month of August. Sailfish season starts like now slowly building up towards the east coast monsoon. Oh! Life as an angler, we’ve been blessed. For this issuse we tested out some really good rods with my favourite being the Megabass Destroyer. We also went on to test Shimano’s value for money Chrocarch CI4+. We tested also lines, baits, and so many other stuffs but one stood out. That would be the not so humble treble hook, Trinity Hooks by ODZ. They are amazing. So amazing that the lab test is going longer that normal. Another exciting piece of news I want to share is this... The Junior Angler Project is taking of well. We have our first sponsor for the project and thus in this issue we begin a “Short Story“ contest for junior anglers. With this we hope that more angling parents will bring their kids fishing and try to win something. There is just one more thing I want to add. The world is going mad. With wars going on, people hating one and other, religious fights, chaos in humanity, and destruction of moral beings; Our world certainly need some healing. To help get things in order let us begin by not sharing bad news, messages of hate, and anything along those lines on social media. Next wipe your social media walls clean of all these bad news. Finally share only messages of peace, love, good news, and hope. By doing so we will be able to shutdown the fuel that feeds the evil fire... Seems like the hippies got it right, Thank you anf happy fishing. Cheers, Phil Editor In Chief
