“Bungsamran is a fantastic place for an angler visiting Bangkok to experience true Thai angling. Fish Thailand guide Phil made the trip so enjoyable and by the end of the day we’d caught so many Mekong everyone was exhausted but smiling! A must do trip.”

“Eddy’s knowledge of fishing in Thailand proved to be a huge advantage when we filmed at a couple of big lakes near the Burmese border. It’s no exaggeration to say he went way beyond the call of duty, in the face of very challenging conditions, and I wish him every success.”

“The Fish Thailand Team have just got to be the best there is, from arranging everything via email from the UK I was impressed once again to the attention to detail this team give you, from the “Meet & Greet” everything just falls into place.

Taxi’s from your hotel arrive on time and when you get to your chosen venue your guide is not only waiting for you he’s already started pre-baiting your swim & waiting to cast in for you.

Fished Bungsamran Lake in Bangkok, fished this venue once before in Nov 2009 I kind of new what to expect (BIG fish and lots of them).

Having already caught 9 fish the 10th was a little different it didn’t fizz off like the rest (Strange?) It just took off at a gentle pace just stripping line which I was powerless to stop and took me way way across the lake, my gguide told me this was a “BIG ONE” and to take my time. Carefully watching where the line was going he informed other anglers on the lake (in Thai) to get there lines out the water and not to recast for a while.

After a few good pat downs with a towel on my face from my good lady wife (I was sweating that much I couldn’t see a thing!) this epic battle of man versus fish took the best part of an hour just to get it ready for the net.

Then like a mini sub it emerged WOW ! We was going to need a bigger net ! With the head of this monster fish in the net another guide took a cloth and secured the tail then on the count of 3 it took 4 of us to hall this beast of a fish onto the mat .

OMG !!!!! This was the biggest thing I’d every caught and with a few “High 5’s” from the guides I turned around to see the whole lake stood up clapping and cheering. I HAD DONE IT ! A 177lb Mekong.

After a few pics we returned this fish back so some other lucky angler can catch this beast. Many many more fish came after this one but not as big, only 50lb + (LOL only 50+ plus)

It’s not after catching this fish I have chosen to write this testimonial but its to say just how good this team really are, they really do know how to put you “on the fish” and they have a very good reputation with all the fishing guides in Thailand.

FISH-THAILAND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.”

“Fishermen are perhaps the greatest story tellers in the world. Together they represent a large container of legends, true life experiences and whopping great lies. Why? Because each fishing trip, like my journey with Eddie and Fish Thailand, each cast …. like the one’s on IT Lake or Bang Pakong River or Bungsamran, and each fish caught like the Mekong Catfish or the giant stingray or my favourite the arapaima is a unique experience.

So don’t tell me about the size of the fish, the hook size or the weight of the line…..tell me about the experience. Where were you Robson? I was in the most idyllic parts of Thailand. Who were you with Robson? I was with the wonderful Eddie Mounce from Ipswich! What did it feel like Robson? It felt like one of the best fishing adventures of my life where I was freed from the official version of things and taken back to the simplicity of our forefathers except the backdrop was a little better than Newcastle Upon Tyne!!”
