Title: Recent catches from the Alor Archipelago
Post by: Kaiser Pro Shop on November 04, 2010, 02:53:40 PM
Some recent catches from the Alor Archipelago, Indonesia with Kaiser Captain Yuji Takabe (Legend 1 & 5).

This place holds enormous potential for big GTs, there have been reports of a recent 56kg GT capture from another boat. Doggies up to 80kg have been landed on jig.  A real Jurassic Park with active volcanoes and all!

Have a look at our facebook page for some pics of a recent trip: http://www.facebook.com/KaiserFishingServices (http://www.facebook.com/KaiserFishingServices)

Fantastic pics and very well timed as I head out there tomorrow  ;D. That fat fish, 2nd row, third from the right has my name written on it.

Takabe-san clearly had a great trip. This was in early October I seem to remember?

My only surprise is to see a lack of Doggies pictured.

Absolutely Mark!  :D

Yeah, doggie catch hasn't been fantastic this year. I think last year was very good for doggies.
