Probably some big fish in the Tonlie Sap right now. I dont see anyone else out there bothering to catch them .
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Fishing boats in and around Koh Kong bring in some very good fish. They get a lot of what looks like what they would call in Australia pink snapper. Maybe try along the coast across the bridge.

Also around Kiri Sakor.

Went to Koh Prins a few years ago and snagged a beautiful Mackerel on the way. Excellent Sashimi right there on the boat.
