 This a small lake situated at the end of Soi 14 along the Beach Road in Jomtien.A 150 bungee jump is also on site in the right hand corner of the lake.There are sometimes competitons held on the weekends at this lake.
By cab from pattaya it is about 300 Baht.The guides will go and get a cab for you to return to your hotel.
The banks and huts have not long been rebuilt.The only problem now is the water level is not that deep and it is someway down from the bank.
 Roy Back in action at the Jomtien Fishing Park in Pattaya.
More people can fish this lake even though it is smaller than Pattaya Fishing Park as there is banking and huts at both ends of the lake.The fish here are a lot smaller than Pattaya.
 There are no weighing scales on site, the landing nets have short handles and with the water level someway down from the bank it is not so easy to land the fish.There are also a couple of guides on site to help you if so needed. The fees to fish here are even cheaper than Pattaya,but it closes at 10pm.
Method fishing is the method again. They sell addative oils to put in the bait if you so require.40 Baht per bottle.
It is the norm to put 2 bottles per bucket of bread. If you can find the fishing tackle shop in Pattya the bottles are only 20 Baht each.
You need to cast about half way out.I had no problem using shimano bait runners with 20lb breaking strain line.
Food and drink available.
Thanks very much to roydeacon for this write up..see more here at the website...
