Hi Craig, Many thanks! I think the measurement on my first fish was 120cm, fish very short and round compared to what we are used too.

Hey Daniel, Will have a couple for you for Musandam. We startyed using quite a few Carpenter Lures in Musandam with very good effect and got the biggest fish of the season by Mogi-san on a 120gr Carpenter Bluefish. Fish was 137cm, awesome specimen.

Cheers,
Nick

Great story pleasure to read, I've tried the chicken sashimi with disastrous results and that was only two little pieces! It took a pint of beer just to swallow a piece lol

Thanks Eric and Jeen! Jeen I think this is a trip you would really enjoy!

Hi Charles, LOL I had a pint of beer on standby and after the first piece finished most of it! But after the initial shock to the system it was actually very good.

Cheers,
Nick
