Fishing at Lake Kenyir, Terengganu



     The monsoon rainy season offer a special opportunity to fisherman to go after sebarau and other species in the largest manmade lake in Peninsular Malaysia.Lake Kenyir consists of more than 340 islands surrounded by a vast rainforest containing unpolluted clear river, waterfalls, magnificent limestone formation and pre-historic caves. Huge specimens of freshwater fish thrive here, making it a popular haunt for anglersHouseboats, floating chalets and lakeside resorts are available. 

After a heavy downpour, some of the river mouth could see large number of sebarau congregating there foraging on baitfishes and foods swept down from upstream. You have to be lucky to be there at the right time and right place to enjoy these feeding frenzies, though.
