glenn Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 when i was in fiji at xmas fishing with fellow raider adrian we decided to give the doggys a go a change from fishing for gts. but all that happend was i got bit off 3 times and got one 400g jig bit in half !!!! we did manage to get one on a popper about 15 kg .well it looks like adian has found them BIG TIME ,he ask me to pass on the report because of the slow internet on the island. so here are a few shot i have so far .the big one went 90kgs.(im never swimming there again) they got 8 all up top fish.and new fiji record safe_image.php.jpeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cartman123 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) Raiders, Wow that's a massive fish. However there have been much bigger..... Fishing's the best in Fiji, let me tell you from first hand experience, being from there. If you manage to get an experienced skipper, there's nothing like the fishing in the waters there, anywhere else in the world! You'll forget your hoody kingie, or dollie in a flash...... Make sure you put this on your "bucket list" as number 1. Cheers, Cartman Edited May 8, 2009 by Cartman123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimnicdusty Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 It was caught on a Zenaq rod, Shimano Trinidad spooled with 80lb Power-Pro braid. Wind-on mono to Shimano 325g butterfly jig and the fish weighed in at 90.6Kg. It took 45 minutes to land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
