My friend Tomio and I went to Freddies Fishing Park ( FFP ) today. easy to find. See video on the FFP facebook page or GPS readings.
We caught a few fish 4 different Species: it was overall slow. That’s why they call it fishing not catching. Park owners John and Saifon are two special people. They make sure you are well taken care of. When you buy a cold drink they offer you ice and a glass. That has not happened at any park i have fished lately. They provide pads so you don’t have to sit on the hard concrete benches. It was a overall great experance at FFP. They have several species of fish stocked in the lake. Approximately 3 rai of water it is a nice mid size lake. . John request you use Barb-less Hooks. There are some restrictions on keeping some fish. Fish can be purchased see John or Saifon for information on purchase. Only fish that you want to purchase should be put in the holding baskets all others should be released immediately. We had a great day at FFP we meet some very nice people. Almost forgot Good Food & Good Prices Will be going back very soon.See more information at— Pattayafishing.net
Thanks Saifon and John will publish face book page soon

Thanks for your comments Don. I have updated the web page.
John,
We had a really enjoyable day at your park. We managed 3 fish- all Tilapia. Fishing alongside your Pekin and Muscovy ducks and grey swan (greylag) geese brought a lovely memory of fishing on farm dam in my youth – which was some time ago!. We had our success with fish after you left – so I assume that the fish are disciplined and waited for the teacher to leave the class before snacking on our bait.
Compliments to the Chef, our lunch and service was top notch – and if anything we will be back for that MUG of tea!
31 August 2015, one Snake head down! Full of roe so they are breeding—— Not a good sign!
Warm welcome awaits , peace tranquility respite oh and fish as well take care all and health and happiness Jon and Sai

Thank you for your help John and Saifon
Another great day at Freddie’s yesterday around 40 fish 7 species including 3 Amazon Red tails 4 nice Pacu . Thanks John and Sai for a wonderful day see you again real soon.
I think that it’s a rip off if you have to pay an extra 25 baht on top of the 300 bhat for rod hire and all other fishing park’s this is included as well as their web site being out dated for the prices of the rooms.
Hey, this was a great experience, was warmly welcomed from the start, jokes all day and more to the point very helpful owner ( John ) who’s patients for teaching and passion for fishing is the exact reason I’m going back again, and probably every time I go back to Thailand!
The food was great, atmosphere fantastic and being a lone nervous noob, I was getting help and tips from others fishing who were a great bunch.
Been watching loads of YouTube videos (FISHERMANS LIFE) and thought I would give it a try and so glad I did.

It has been a long while since I last had the pleasure to fish at your park.
This Covid thing has screwed up many pleasures of life. Tomio has been unable to come to Thailand for almost two years. As soon as he gets back we will be renewing our friendship with you and your lovely wife. Until then stay healthy and Safe.
Don
