that is massive well done Rick for putting his clients on such a huge fish....

that transfers to 112.436 lb that has to be the biggest landed on rod and reel...
from memory there was a couple in the 111lb mark, anyone know????

couple of pics would certainly be appreciated.... 
Thanks for everything you did for us Eric. may you rest in peace, You were one of the real legends of NZ recreational fishing

Some very big fish caught today on pursuit, take some very strong gear any inferior tackle will end in tears, fish between 30 and 40 kgs on rhe surface

That's right of2fsh , been on board pursuit before and rick laughed at me with 24 kg line , managed to land a 37 kegger tho this time I got 37 kg line and an accurate / jm jig set up , so fingers crossed haha .
Scuba skip hope your stick bait set up will stop these freight trains !

There's been a lot of crap gear smashed on pursuit the last few days,mainly top water rods.
Good luck look forward to the report
