Flying Finns here for the fastest fin – Sailfish fishing with Janne, his wife and friend.

Janne and his traveling-fishing companions have fished around the world with this being their first to this parts.

These adventurous travellers who spent 6 nights in Kuala Rompin also visited Labuan, an island of Sabah Borneo and took the opportunity to do some fishing there, went to Singapore and had a short stay in our southern city of Johor Bahru.

They were pre-empted about the timing, early March, being very early in the fishing season in Kuala Rompin and we may have to work for our fish.

In the end, they are happy as everyone had the experience of battling sailfish and adding to their catch-list.
