jimmy72 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 last week i finally got the boat out for first time this summer, luck was with us as we had a pretty good morning. missed a few kings but landed a couple - not big fish but on a 8wt fly rod and on poppers size hardly matters on the way home we found a few frigates speeding around chasing bait so hunted them down and my mate hooked up and landed a pretty big one on his 7wt - think he might have line burn on a finger or two but you would not guess as he looks pretty happy cheers grant PS saw a 8 ft bull shark leap 5 ft clear of the water too, must have thought he was a great white on Nat geo channel - no seals around so probably smashing the frigates..

Paikea Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 that leap of the Bull Shark would have made a great pic. Great post, nice pics thanks for sharing. Cheers Paikea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foolforjesus Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Great work Mate! Awesome fun on the fly rod I bet. I'm keen to chase some salt species soon on the fly rod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinsoi Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Terrific effort jimmy Would have been spectacular seeing the shark jump out of the water. Well done, top photos and thanks for sharing. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
