Thanks mate

I'm gonna have to upload that video of captain Saoud getting hooked up on day 5 in only 5 casts by that 136 cm fish! I'll do it tonight (CET).

Thanks for sharing that footage Peter! 

Loving the photo's Luke, some great shots taken.

[Luke Wyrsta]

Thanks guys!

Peter, I can remember how epic that situation was with Saoud! Hook-up, fight and release was all as equally entertaining 

[Nick Bowles]

Peter awesome clip, was total chaos and good fun! Easy for me!!

Cheers,
Nick

Day 6 and Beyond...

Words to come. Matt and Barry, please add some colour to this post 

[Peter Morris]

Absolutely magnificent Luke.  Some truly huge fish there.

[Barry Kurten]

I'll add some colour Luke ... You "wasted" our entire first morning fighting a "baby" Hallaniyat GT because you dont know how to hook the fish in the mouth !  ... And then there was the Milk fish incident as well !!

Did i see you posting about Popping workshops ?? .. Does that include teaching the people how to hook fish in the mouth  

But on the "serious" side ... It was an EPIC trip , seeing and being part of the GT feeding frenzy out at Kibli island was absolutely incredible. Images i have printed in my mind forever of GT's doing flick flacks and cartwheels over the poppers. Simply Awesome !!!

And then there is Cpt Saoud ! WHAT A LEGEND ! Almost worth the trip just to fish with him !

All these big fish

Impressed, and in the gym this afternoon, looks like I'll need it for October

[Mark Harris]

I am drinking coffee and eating lots of cakes this afternoon... you make me feel guilty Andy!
