Great stuff Chris.  Love the way that Milkfish hauled you around :) .

Top man is Ed... great footage of him diving in to sharky waters to revive that GT.

And please tell your friend to open the bail arm once the deckie has hold of the leader.  I think he was close to a broken rod there.

Thanks Mark for the tip. No breakages this time!

Here's the 3rd video. Light tackle in slightly windy conditions, small fish in light conditions and big bust off.

All good stuff Chris. I am guessing your wife was on video duty a lot of the time?  What set up were you using for the big GT?  The rod looks like a Ripple?

Jac was fishing hard for Gts as well but not much luck and she decided to go for the light tackle stuff after the 4th day.

For the GT, I was using the Ultimo.

Here's the 5th and last video of our buddy Maverick.
