KELAU SNAKEHEAD & PEACOCK BASS FISHING - TOMAN & TEMENSIS FISHING CLOSE TO KUALA LUMPUR
Target giant snakehead and temensis peacock bass (chicla temensis) in one of the most accessible freshwater reservoirs near Kuala Lumpur.
Kelau Dam is one of the best options for anglers looking for a jungle-style fishing experience without spending too much time travelling. Located around 100 km from Kuala Lumpur, the journey takes only about 1.5 hours. The main target species are giant snakehead and peacock bass. What makes Kelau especially interesting is the presence of Cichla temensis, the largest peacock bass species found here, which can grow up to around 70 cm. Using the same rod, reel and lures, you never really know what will strike next — it could be a peacock bass or a powerful giant snakehead. That unpredictability is what makes fishing at Kelau so exciting.
LOCATION
Kelau Dam is located in Pahang, approximately 100 km from Kuala Lumpur, making it one of the most accessible snakehead fishing destinations near the capital. Round-trip transportation from Kuala Lumpur is included in the trip.
