Topwater Caranx Ignobilis: Giant Trevally (GT) > Reports & Expeditions

GT's at Kadavu, July '09

<< < (2/3) > >>

Shane Hartstone:
We fished 3 days in total, but only popped for 4-5 hours, as my fishing buddies consised of my girlfriend and her parents...  Chased sails and did a bit of jigging, but all else was quiet.  We ended up with 4 GT's, a Jobfish and a Red Bass on poppers.  I didn't have any bust-offs, ran 100lb twisted leaders with either a fluro or wire bite leader.  The Zenaq was a bit light for chucking those massive hammer heads, but 150gm Jai's and Cubera's flew well.

Matava Resort is an awesome place, I can't wait to get back there in the summer.

Greg Burt:
Good one Shane, sounds like the Zenaq met you expectations. I will be giving my one a run there in Feb/March with Peter Morris, your report is getting me 'chaffing at the bit'.

PS: Good to see you worked out the pics  ;D

Peter Morris:
Right...Lets go Greg... ;D....tomorrow... :D :D

Great report Shane.
Fiji is a top place.

Pete

Sachin Chaudhry:
Yep. The place to be.

Adrian Watt:
Hi guys,
Not much to report on the popper front at the moment. We are getting the usual windy winter weather with just the occasional nice day and most anglers coming at this time of year are here for the wahoo and sailfish on light tackle.
Its blowing 20kts and forecast to stay that way for a week.....That's why we tell popper and jig anglers to come in the summer !
