This woman turned up as we where cleaning the fish, she owned the land that the hole was on and accused us of pinching her fish...LOL.

Hi All,

I'm Jeff from UK originally, but have been in Thailand for a few years now. Just thought a few of you might like this story. Before I met my wife I was living in another village with another Thai family. My girlfriend had 2 children, 1 girl and a boy called Nuke. It was durning the dry season, and nuke came home one day with a couple of fish, we thought he had caught them in the local small lake, but he said he hadn't. He said he had noticed a cat come out of a hole in a field with a fish. The hole ran underneath the road and was a water outlet for when the fields flooded.
He'd climbed into the hole and he said it was full of fish, there was hardly any water in there but the fish where living in the mud. The pics tell the story....enjoy.

What species of fish were these? If they were alive in mud, they had to be either Anabantids or Killies. :bow2:

Hi Debonis,

Not sure what fish they where, there was a few snakeheads, and perch like fish, they where similar to the fish in my post fishing the thai way 2.
