Snakehead Fishing @ Sepayang Dam
Introduction
Located in Endau, Sepayang Dam is an area for anglers to escape civilization and experience true natural beauty with absolute absence of any man-made noise. This heavily covered terrain Dam is filled with Giant Snakeheads which has a reputation for extreme aggression when attacking its prey. There is nothing more exciting for an angler than seeing these creature’s legendary strikes on topwater surface lures. Once you are hooked on to one, you’ll be hooked for life!
Other native species in Dam are Common Snakehead and Asian Arowana which are considered as bonus catch while targeting the Giants. If you are a lure casting enthusiast who enjoys watching topwater surface action or experiencing hard takes from crankbaits, Sepayang is an area you must visit!
To provide comfort and safety for all anglers on board with us, guests will be spilt into groups of 2 per boat. Each group will be fishing with an experienced skipper on a 16-footer fiberglass boat equipped with 15HP engines to maneuver in small coves.
Fishing does not mark the end of your DMC journey with us! After a day of fishing, it is time to reward yourself with good food. Our guides are well-knowledge on some of the best restaurants in Endau to suit your taste buds. Other activities such as massage can also be arranged upon request.
