devon007 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Wow what a cracker of a day, I am writing this in much pain as my arms and back are still aching from pulling in a massive Tuna. Had an awesome day with Mick and Dave from Reef Magic. Took a little while to find em but Mick put us on the spot and just after lunch BAM 5 way hook-up unforTUNAtly one got away when Bens line got twisted with another rod, with all the chaos going on we still got 4 in the boat, it was crazy. Apart from that we all had a great day. The fish were that big it needed 3 of us to carry each others fish to the cars, what a sight. i used a golf buggy to get mine round the back when i got home and dumped it into the outside bath (tail hanging out - didnt quite fit) with ice and salt. (another great tip from Dave) ready to be sliced and diced in the morning. Off to bed now still buzzing, I'm sure Stewy will have a more detailed report with photos. Thanks Guys Awesome day Steve Edited July 11, 2012 by Guppy Slayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mgourlas Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 What a ripper day. I cant thank and recommend the boys from Reef Magic enough. To have a 5 way hook up and land 4 was nothing short of a miracle, if it weren't for the guidance and enthusiasm of Dave and the Brilliance of our skipper Mick we would have never got em in.. Well Done Boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
