fragmeister Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Good Job, Hope its not the last. How was the general action and the boat traffic? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barc Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Was quiet with only 3 boats there when I arrived , first drop foul hooked a jacket so moved to Eastern edge of reef and to the south away from the jackets , sounded a couple good marks sitting over small hump in reef , was hard to get drift right with breeze and current and water depth to put jig on target after about half dozen or so drifts got a good bump on the jig , as boat was over mark that got me excited and just keep working that gps track , 10 or so passes later hooked up was stoked to land it , fishing solo bit interesting trying to net it , the last king I jigged there I lost to a Mako then teased and filmed him on gopro uploaded to YouTube ( magical mako ) so was praying all the way up from 130 mtrs please don't get bloody sharked ! Awsome sport fish , great eating and good to have a plan that worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
