Angono, Rizal Wawa Park
East of Manila about 40 minutes drive from QC is Angono. They have a nice park on the shore of Laguna de bay where you can do a little casting.
The place has a couple spots to cast to...
Dalag are present though i only caught one. You can also catch Tilapia, kanduli (catfish), knifefish and other freshwater fish. Plecosthumus (armoured catfish) are abundant and considered a pest.
Renting a boat would be a good option to get to other spots.

Other Catches...
My all time saltwater fave would probably be jacks. Nothing beats a jack when it comes to attacking topwaters then there's the fight...
I lost all my good pictures of GT's caught while trolling and casting so this will have to do.
Casting topwaters over a shallow reef brings on nice surprises
I caught this grab bag in subic while shorecasting .
When it comes to eating, kings are king! The guy holding the fish is Fernando, my buddy boatman from Iba, Zambales.

My Other Fishes
Aside from Haruans, I also love trolling, casting topwaters, jigging and most other forms of lurefishing.
These are threadfin salmons commonly known as Mamali. I use topwaters especially walk the dogs and spoons to catch them. Nothing beats topwaters when it comes to excitement! These mamali are real fighters making long runs punctuated by wild jumps. I use 20lb. braid on my abus with a 6.5ft. rod which is the most comfortable setup for the walk the dog technique.

Paranaque Dalag
Went south of the metropolis to Paranaque to visit a subcontractor and this gave me the opportunity to visit some old haunts.
Had several strikes in the short time i was there, only one hooked up! What looks like solid ground is actually all floating vegetation.
Used a heavy (5/8's ounce) Sumo frog to get through the duckweed.
Had a big one slam the frog, dive then jump up three feet before spitting out the lure. Left me paralyzed in surprise!!!

Custom Spinnerbaits
I'm always trying to improve my spinnerbaits. This batch comes with scrambled egg finish indiana blades and longer hair which the haruan seem to find attractive.
I've also reduced the size of thesafety pin lock to prevent accidental openings.
