Garrick on surface lure, Mazeppa Bay, Transkei
มุมมอง 6Kปีที่แล้ว
My cousin and I head down to Mazeppa Bay with a couple of other friends with relatively low expectations for catching garrick on the surface. The winter months are not usually as good as the summer months in the area, but there's still always a chance with the sardines around. Our first few sessions didn't yield many results with maybe a follow or two until the easterly picked up. With the firs...

Altogether between two of us we ...
Farquhar Atoll - Landing a big GT around coral heads
มุมมอง 178ปีที่แล้ว
We spent the day around a newly fished coral ridge on Farquhar Atoll in the Seychelles where we see big GTs almost every outing and it didn't take long to find a few big ones around 1 coral head. Although the wide angle of the Gopro hero 10 doesn't fully capture the effort put in for this fish I think it still offers a great guide's POV of what it takes to successfully land a big fish around gn...
