Hi all
Here is a photo of my first big GT , I caught him on a rod I built , line is 10 kg mono 3 1/2 in popper , Calcutta 400, the fish is 15 kg ,It took nearly 1/2 a hour to land ,I have been reading the different posts on this site , As I have no one to teach me how to do things , every thing I have learnt has come off here ,I live in Cooktown Cape York Auss , so I have plenty of GTs to practice on , I am going to build 2 rods , 1 will be a PE 6 on a CTS popping blank for my son , the 1 for me will be PE 10 on a new Synit popping blank ,from New Zealand , I have till the end of october to hone my skills , as I have organised a trip to Osprey reef , and yes I know I will get my butt kicked
Tight line , Empty Pockets Ian
