Wokatok Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Did some thing new a few weeks ago Had a mako take half my king so I dangled the remaininder over the side of the boat and as it swam back to take another bite gaffed it. Gaff shot was perfect, right under the jaw We held it on the side of the boat and gave it a few brain spikes and knocks with the priest before boating it. Got lemons, make lemonade. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wokatok Posted December 7, 2022 Author Share Posted December 7, 2022 I think it went into shock and cause it was gaffed under the jaw I lifted its head up so it had no leverage. Was easier than expected. I've since lost 2 makos I tried to gaff another as it swam up taking burley, but missed the shot, the other was a big one on a poorly set up wire rig. I think there's a lot around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Lots of schools of Slimies around, so Makos will be there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickles Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Well done @Wokatok, Mako’s are great eating (skinned and bled to get rid of ammonia taste). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably what we should have done Bob instead of towing it for miles. LOL bn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
