  • Join me for a morning walk and motorbike ride. I'll start out on the beach filming the fishermen, try to get a cup of coffee at my favorite spot, and then head down toward Khao Chee Chan.

    When i told a woman that i wanted to go to Thailand the first thing she said was I was going for the bars and the girls. When i said i wanted to see the country she said i was lying. Most people think that all of Thailand is a bar with strippers. They have no idea what the country has to offer.

    It was not until years later why i understood why my Dad enjoyed fishing so much. I went with him all the time first fishing the River until he said the fish coming from it were not worth eating. Use to help him make troutlines the usual concrete block on the end to weight the line down and keep the current from moving it down stream and every 10 ' an old window weight evenly spaced hooks usually the treval type 3 prong hook and an old bleech bottle float to locate the line on the open end. All this work just in maintaining the lines and once a day checking it was a lot of work. Then there was the bait depending on conditions. The musscle meat kept behind the shed in a milk carton. The crawdads sained from surface water in fields. But all this was the relaxation of keeping busy at something he loved with his only child (me) lol and the time that he was not being nagged at by Mom.❤😂😮😢❤

    Hey Buddy.. I am sure as hell not trying to get you to start drinking again.. But with my 50 years of drinking... I learned LONG ago.. I just stay with light beer.. Eat well-healthy... drink water and get 6 plus hours sleep along with minor exercise and you're good to go. I can pound down 15 SML and feel just fine every morning. NEVER drink Hard-A. BUT just my thoughts. Stay safe my friend.

    husband speaking age 81 & 1/2 8:30 pm on the West Coast near Seattle, tomorrow is the 4th and will be back at our camp site near the Canadian
    Boarder close to Vancouver, BC. It is supposed to be hot this week but this is Wash. State and rain is always possible. Is your wife's sister still in the
    hospital or did someone bail her out ? The father needs to step up and be a man, get a job and take care of the family he has started - for fun.

    1:00 Good deals on fish buying directly from the fishermen is not generally a thing in SE Asia. Relationships are very important. Cutting their fish dealers out can cause fishermen future problems. Many times fishermen have clan members running a booth in the fish market. So it makes no sense to the fishermen to sell cheaper. I don't think most fishermen even know prices. That's not their end of the business. They don't have scales, bags or can make change. Some dealers may set up on the beach but most buying happens in the main market.
    I knew a guy in PH who tried to start a fish dealer business. Turned out to be almost impossible to get fishermen to sell him their catch.

      in pattaya u go to the neighboring "city" just 20 min away called "na-kluea "and the big fishmarket..buy superfresh fish and seafood still alive and leave it to ppl having bbq for a small amount and have a picnic near it on the grass.. super nice and was good prices..but the chinese and korean tourists have probably ruined the prices to be tripple or more by now as they do in most se-asia..

    • @gmm5550

      pattaya is pretty small and concentrated..if u only go 20 minutes from the beach and center its like any normal thai city with few foreigners and few english menus and foreigner prices and really low prices
      and "real Thailand" u mean rural areas..well its damn boring there, farmers go up with the sun 5- 5:30 am and to bed with the sundown around 7-8 pm and nothing really happens there.
