baluga Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Finally got a chance to go back to Philippines for a vacation and family reunion.Stayed half of the time in Makati, boy the whole place changed after 15 years. I could easily get lost here.Finally got to my sister's rest house in Caliraya Lake at Laguna.The road to the placeI had a great time. The weather is Caliraya is fantastic. It's more of a rain forest setting, drizzle in the morning for half an hour and the sun comes out to brighten the day. It's always windy and the breeze cools the air. The house is between waters from the west and the east side.I got at least six black bass during my stay there. Most of them are caught in weightless 5" senko and 5" YUM worm. I tried all types of topwater lure to get a mud fish/snake head family but would not get them to bite. I actually have not spotted any.I think I found a place to retire:Thanks for reading 14 Quote

Rollincoal420 Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 Bringing back an old thread. Thanks for the post @baluga. I'm currently on a vacation/reunion (turned out to be more of an introduction than a reunion for me with most of the family) myself right now. We are staying in Manila. Our planned activities for the trip are mostly complete and I would like to rent a boat and find some green fish in lake Caliraya. Pantabagan would probably be my first choice from what I've been reading on the internet but Caliraya is much closer to Manila. Would you happento have any insight? Boat rentals, location or structure to fish on that lake? Or just any BS'n about it you feel like bs'n about? Quote
Super User Oregon Native Posted June 17, 2018 Super User Posted June 17, 2018 Enjoy the moment....should you see topwater movement....(you know what to do...I like poppers or spooks)' Pretty hard to go wrong with a senko or ned too if no action on top. Sunny....docks are always an option Enjoy your trip Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted June 17, 2018 Super User Posted June 17, 2018 Looks like a little slice of heaven. Quote
