Tasik Kenyir , Terengganu
Tasik Kenyir is the largest man-made lake in Southeast Asia, spanning 260,000 hectares. It is also Malaysia's largest rock filled hydroelectric dam. When the area was flooded, most of the hills were above the water level, thus creating about 340 man-made islands. To find out where the fish are biting, have a chat with the locals at the jetty. They might even let you in on some of the best spots that have previously been closely-guarded local secrets, so you will feel like the first person to have ever fished in these waters. Other waterholes are frequented by locals and visitors alike, giving you the opportunity to meet with like-minded fishing folk. But all of them are guaranteed to give you a great Outback fishing experience. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
