Udang Galah @ Pengkalan Kempas





Heard about this place via friends and infact, it has been on air, featured in Majalah 3 few months ago. This place is well known and famous for udang galah.





This river is known as Sungai Linggi leading to the sea about 4 km down passing by Sungai Timun and Tanjung Agas (and true enough, oh my God!!! yes, there are billions of "agas" there).





Me, Azmil and hamba Allah (can't mention the name for some reason) made a day trip there, rented a boat and tried our luck for udang galah. This was my first time experience, never tried it before. We had breakfast and ta pao for lunch at some small warung opposite a small old police station (forgot where it was but just before Pengkalan Kempas town). Damn cheap!!! 12 packets of nasi lemak, 15 karipap (big one, too!) and 3 cups of teh tarik just cost us less than RM20.



The boat moved at about 7.30 am, got our fishing gadgets fixed and ready, that was where the fun began. Great fun guys, we'll be back in next 2 weeks !! (though some locals there told us to watch out for "Bujang Senang" that may sometimes surface from the water - hope we don't bump into any!).
