GT Popping On The Rocks - Extreme GT Fishing Land Based at the Montebello Islands

This is a video of a nice GT I caught while casting poppers from the rocks at the Montebello Islands. I give a little insight into the gear we use as well

Fantastic, I think I'd wet myself if I saw action like that! Well done, great video! ATB.

I had a school of 10 lb fish come up behind the boat just last week! I only pulled one from it though. Yes we have a good Yellowtail Kingfish fishery here in Australia. A great target on lures, surface poppers, vertical jigging and live baiting are popular methods here.

This looks like one of the most fun way to catch fish, but it would be cool to see the fish come up and hit the popper

[@hmlanding]

have you ever heard of surface iron fishing, we in the states throw a 8 in jig on a 9 ft rod with 40 lbs for yellowtail, and get the same kind of visual excitement, and wolf-packing, except we can't catch them off the rocks. Sounds like a fun time thx for the video

very nice

[@hmlanding]

maybe 4oz or less, a Tady 45's or a Salas 7x are a few good surface irons. If you ever do get one, make sure you ask them to find you a swimmer, and if it spins in the water its garbage. Have you ever caught a Kingfish?

[@BigFishMad]

@hmlanding Sounds like fun. We do a similar thing here in Australia. How heary are the jigs you cast? 8inch metal jig would be hard work casting all day!

[@BigFishMad]

@hmlanding It was the first cast for the day and we didn't have the camera ready!! The strike was awesome as we had 3 GT's come up and swipe at it
