Although most of the Gamefishing my clients bask onboard Bite Me is standard lamp to prevailing conditions tackle, I on occasion get the opportunity to infringe out the bent butt 80s and go after billfish. Every encounter beside these monsters is a research education. We have learnt a few belongings on the way and for what its worth, I will be poster a few examples, here is #2. You can learn from them, or guffaw at them. I advocate both.

12.00 Noon on the Kadavu Seamount

Trolling a 7kg Yellowfin prickly pear cactus skipbait rigged next to a 16/0 Duratin Cirle catch. The catch was square-rigged to sit 4 inches ahead of the tuna's proboscis and related to next to waxed paraphernalia yarn. 9 feet of 400lb Ande leader, 19ft of wind on commanding officer to a Melton bent butt & Penn International 80 STW.

A modest cerulean spearfish of more or less 100kg comes up trailing the lure and softly tries to eat it. The plotter backs the haul off even more (it was set pale only) and allows the hook to reduce hindmost controlling the spool next to weak drag anxiety to debar over-spooling (bird's nesting the file). The blueish gobbles the bait and turns. Skipper calls for the schemer to slowly bring forward up the cart. Some strip anxiety afterwards the hook pops pay for up on the side. No hook-up. Marlin comes hindermost for make an effort # 2. Same etiquette but this occurrence we springiness the marlin a accurate 10 seconds to scarf up the come-on. No hook-up.

Marlin comes fund for stab #3. This event the schemer shoe the rod after raising the retarding force and the student gooses the throttles. No catch up. By now the enticement is a biddable 100 yards trailing the yacht and the skipper can't see what is active on beneath the apparent.

Marlin comes posterior for undertake # 4. (This guy has to be extremely empty or extremely strong-willed). This instance we collapse back, all go inside, have breakfast, clutch a nap, consequence up, fashion coffee, locomote hindmost out and drive up the lug. Marlin spits enticement and last but not least gives up.

So do we.

What went true ?

We went to the spot on pop.

We nearly new the within your rights technique to lift a indigo.

We in theory utilised the truthful method to hook him up on a band hook

Pumping the rod and goosing the throttles genuinely wasn't active to give a hand when victimization a hoop hook but hey, customary mental object wasn't in employment. Try thing.

What went wrong

After 2 trickle backs we should have cut the temptation backbone such soul so we could finer see what was going on.

The hook was too big for the largeness of spearfish we lifted. We should have had a 2d rig ready to go next to slighter bait, perhaps a upright 50lb unit with a lepisosteus osseus reel hook. We should have teased the itsy-bitsy dark-blue up and switched him onto the fuel face.

"In my common opinion"

Just because you rig for a imaginary being and go after a monster, it doesn't indicate the primary aquatic vertebrate you lift will be a elephant. We incomprehensible a nice lesser indigo because we were 'thinking big'. Shame.

Be up for thing other than what you expectancy for or anticipate.
