Secho Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 The first YFT of the season for Reel Game - good day for us today. Mick and I hooked this fish just after first light (back home it weighed in right on 50kg dressed). A few hours after having landed the fin we fought a cracker Marlin for 10 or 15 min but with only two of us on board and a full spread set back in the water, we eventually lost the fish when it tossed the hooks a long way back from the boat - probably call it for about 100kg or so. Later this afternoon we found a smallish sized Mako swimming about but didn't get the bite - still a great day - here's a couple of pics of the YFT. Cheers Secho.

Scent Blazer Lures Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) nice, where abouts? We got out there yesterday, but had problems with one of our engines so we only made it a little beyond browns before heading back. We hooked about 10 small striped tuna, boated a couple and the rest came off. Edited June 20, 2014 by Scent Blazer Lures
