Had a great trip out with Captain Ned and first mate George on board the Sea Breeze!
Was kind of snotty on the way out and the locked jaw fish wasn't helping!
All onboard were going nuts when we saw schools of tunas surfing on the 4-6 ft rolls, cast after cast non of us came tight.
Ned decided to make the run for another spot and he was right on the $$!!
First cast and we had a double on, Greg (Malaysia) and Kiwi (Singapore) were the first to go.
Kiwi lost his fish after 5 mins when the line went slack and the fish freed itself with some violent head shakes.
Greg hanged on and eventually got the fish in after 25 mins, a 72 inch whopper!
Next drift, Roland (Malaysia) and Kiwi was on, Roland's line parted after the fish made its first run leaving Kiwi to fight his mammoth fish which lasted over an hour...
Wind was picking up and the sun was setting, we made the painful decision to lock up the drag and pop the line.
Below are the photos!
