haha . .

different ppl different needs n expectation mah . . its not hard to find info but end up is service price etc.

i regular there, but i not really into chiong places, cos i never really go chiong in hcm.. hahaha.. so what i go there monthly or bimonthly, or go there 100 of times. i still so noob n green as u all first timer... haha

if u wana buy some north face jacket or under armour jacket, i can tell u where to go,

if u wana go eat some dim sum, i can tell u where to go. but being first time there, u better off try the local food. I go there so often or u invite local ppl, its a nice change not to eat local. hahaha. So if i ask for info on diff cusine in hcm ( basically i asking those station there or someone so regular there that they dont want local food or a change of environment for invited guests etc .. haha )

if u first time go hcm.. just stay at d1. cant go wrong.

dont put expectation too high, wont du lan so much. haha

good luck bro

Alright. Thanks for the tips. Expectations are quite high tbh because of people saying how fun it is.

If I do not know you in person, I would definitely be very tempted to blast you outright for making such insensitive comments on an open forum in the worldwide net, but I shall not as I do not wish nor want to engage in such senseless online flame wars, which some others may find entertaining but unfortunately I do not.....

It is basic courtesy on a forum to respect others views regardless if it does or does not agree with your own, unless you had meant it in a buddy jokingly way, which in your case clearly does not, as putting a smilie at the end of such direct insensitive comment does not equates to such......

Asking a first-timer visitor to Wetnam to go cheong into all other touristy-not-so-friendly districts without even knowing if they can speak basic Wetnamese is never a good idea, unless you think that making such comments will be able to elevate your self-perceived online status as being all-knowing or experienced, but as I have already advocated above I will still respect your counter-views as you have your own reasoning & agenda here

You go in now, peel the layers from the city and tell us what you are made of, or what the place is made of

When I just started travelling for work in 1990 it was really interesting (& sometimes downright foolish ) to go around all the unknown ulu ulu areas all over Asia to cheong as that time you cant find any information as the internet was still in its infancy stage, the company I worked for dont even have an email address for us and everybody had to share a common workstation to access the internet thru the administrator's watchful eye

Well no right or wrong here but by all means go for it if anybody is adventurous enough & as what our fishy friend have said above, please come back with a story or some stories to tell here

My favourite is at gina’s in Changi village because she always give me the half balls. Strong swivel, owner’s hooks, fire line etc.

If you know about Gina, you are definitely a fellow genuine angler cause that shop does not have Gina in its name

phu quoc, tried for a few hours in the evening, also zero.

nha trang, bring rod there, but end up didnt fish, island hop instead.

its hard to communicate to them our expectation of fishing... haha. small little 1 kg is gonna be a waste of time.

as for fresh water, i tried one pond at bien hoa, also small little fishes .. wtf.

any good pond in ( nearby ) HCM. least a few kg fight, catch n release ok. Left a few rods in HCM, still yet to find time place to try.

I'm not a freshwater pond enthusiast as no surprises in ponds as you know what fishes is coming up but there is 1 good productive one at district 8 (79 Ta Quang Buu, Ward 4) with 2 very big ponds & you can bring back what you catch
