PERCH JUNGLE (Hampala macrolepidota)


Some nice jungle perch caught in Borneo (http://beraufishing.blogspot.it/) 

It has an enormous natural range extending eastwards from Myanmar via Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam as far as southwestern China and to the south through Peninsular Malaysia and into the Greater Sunda Islands of Borneo and Sumatra. It thus occurs throughout the great Mekong and Chao Phraya drainages as well as a host of smaller river basins, lakes and reservoirs with specific localities being far too numerous to list.
