Kuala Rompin Sailfish fishing and the Kodak Playsport waterproof video camera

Here it is. The first video captured entirely on the Kodak Playsport Zx5. Hopefully there is a Kodak moment somewhere!

It’s the Sailfish season at Kuala Rompin and they are back in numbers albeit a bit late this year.

Took the new Kodak camera out to see how it performs and put it to good use. This is the first video. Look out for more featuring all the actions from Kuala Rompin.

Don’t forget to leave a comment below and let me know what you think of the video!

  1. I am an Expat living in KL. I have had some great trips to Rompin on the Sail Fish. Now I wish to invest in my own gear.

    Please can someone recomend a 20kg rod e.g. Daiwa Saltiga or Shimano? I have a Xtoga 25kg. any thoughts on this brand as I have not heard of it.

    Any advice on the colour and brand of Jiggs favoured at Rompin would also be a help.

    Advice appreciated!

    1. Congratulations on investing in your own gear.

      I find rod makes a very personal choice as many rods will work for Rompin. You did not mention the reel you are using. You’ll need to match the rod to that, too.

      Xzoga is the product of a Malaysian company, The Season Tackle, that also produces fishing rods and other products under the Lemax and recently launched Gawas brands.

      I have not noticed any brand of poppers or jigs that consistently out-catches another (it’s tough hooking a sail with popper! Hope you have better success).

      I usually carry jigs within the colour range of silver/chrome, chartreuse, pink.

      Happy fishing and thanks for reading the blog.
