Isn`t there a risk with so many species that some of the predator fishes..............
Maybe Southswede, you didn't hear about this event? They say it escaped from the lodge, first escapee of the year. What do you feed them Mr T?

All hushed up with promises of never-ending somtam. :wink:

Sorry Mr T, couldn't resist it. :twisted:

Mr. C

If you manage to get past my vicious guard dogs, (Including the two new ones that somebody gave me), BB gun and machetti armed baitman, sure as hell you will be recorded on CCTV

SO - as is often said - it's up to you.

S.J.

No apple trees but 5hit loads of coconuts, bananas, mangos et al and the same security message applies!

IF you manage to get in and happen to slip in the ponds there are plenty of sharp toothed Pacu, Arapaima, Alligator Gar and other piscatoral delights waiting to bite your ar5e.

Point taken Terry, this Pacu (piranha family) nearly took my finger off once, so won't risk it!! Those aligator-gar's are some fearsome fish too.
Crazy on the other hand you go ahead, no-one will miss you :D

You certainly got a wide variety of species down there, if anyone's not been yet make the effort, great family day out.

The problem for the Giant Mekong Catfish (Pla Beuk) is that too many of them have been turned into tasty fish dishes by the locals, to the point that they are virtually extinct in the wild, and are an endangered species according to The World Wildlife Fund. :guns:

It's not surprising, the flesh is quite tasty - but don't come to my place expecting them on a plate - you CAN buy them (Farmed) from Makro - fresh or frozen.

Not sure if there is a photo but will check when I get back to the Lodge.

Mr. C

Seems like I had inadvertently misled you :oops:

Upon further checking with Jit, it seems that the downfall of 'Arry was a piece of ledgered chicken - on the bottom!

So - your cunning plan may work yet - seeing as 'Arry may be off of chicken right now!

His 5 little brothers may still be partial to the gai too! :wink:

Anyway - you still have to get the Pla Thong past Bee & Mrs. T - good luck.

Also it seems that Gary the Gar has been sighted regularly in the bottom pond at around 1.5m long. That must put him at around 8kg minimum. Not bad since he went in at 1.8kg last May.
