Singapore Naval Base - Fishing in the Dockyard (2)132 views1963. Peter Banks after a nights fishing off a floating dock in the Naval Dockyard. A good catch of Ikan Tenggiri. (Malay name). A shoal of these fish were found to be circling a couple of metres down under the overhanging floodlights at the end of the dock. A difficult fish to eat due to the mass of small bones in the flesh but our amah pound the whole fish into a paste and made them into tasty fish balls. Mar 27, 2025

Singapore Naval Base - Fishing in the Dockyard141 views1964. Colin Banks holding up an Ikan Cermin (Malay name) caught whist fishing from a floating dock in the Naval Dockyard. A little bit of trick photography has been used for fun but it was a nice big fish. Because they are a flat and thin fish they are able to put up a tremendous fight when caught.Mar 27, 2025
