Picnic06-Biante15 Supersonic November 11, 2013 Share November 11, 2013 Before the development around the areas off Senoko Power Station, there was a stretch of forested land beside Senoko Power where the water outlet pipes are. Very nice fishing spot with lot of fishes like Sea Bass, brown spotted grouper, chio beng, black mullet (alsam fish) and tanbang. Come October, baby prawn a plenty where can fry with egg or sprinkle those deep fried ones onto mee rubus or make 'chincharok'. So many ppls fishing there until PUB install a warning siren when the power station suck in or discharge seawater. Only for about 3 years and places taken back for factories ... Then shifted my attention to Kampong Wak Hassan, deep inside Andrew's Road (Sembawang Park area). Low tide, can walk into the sea with only knee deep water. Using 'pong teng' catch flower crabs. Inside Kampong Wak Hassan, Jalan Mempurong was a Canoe & Sailing Club and beside was a bungalow owned by our famous footballers brothers, the Quah family.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
