What is your preferred treble?
GT recorder?

GT rcorder hooks are great, but they are not readily available. I usually use Owner ST-76 hooks or ST-66.

When I use single hooks to release, I use assist hooks.

Those fish in that video are tiny, appreciate it is a different country. But really makes you appreciate how good NZ fishery is. I am partial to cigars and wiskey and sometimes puff when hooked up when jigging.. but on much bigger fish than in that video.
To me smoking or nonsmoking has nothing to do with angler fitness and panting is more about establishing a rythm when playing a fish much like snoring when trying to sleep.
I dont know about legends ... I ve been fishing for kings since i was 4 years old, mainly land based then in small boats. Been pulled off wharfs and even sunk a dinghy playing monsters in my youth. The fish I ve tangled with were giants. Ive done a lot of weights to, used to bench over 140 kg and had biceps the size of tennis balls, but seriously nothing beats good technique and good gear to land big kings.
Tuck the rod butts under your arm pit and fish em like geoff thomas. My omoto 22 posiedon (20 kg of drag) is a big improvement on the old tld 25s and penn senators we used to land monsters on in hauraki gulf off rakino using massive kahawai livies and towing fish out to sea with 15 hp outboards to keep em out of rocks. Legends we were then and we let em go and would never let fish flap on a hot deck like that video. Also get rid of trebble hooks, No excuse now you have inline singles. Poppers always been good on those smaller kings under 30 kg. But why not run singles on them.

What a load of dribble.

This sort of comment is what spoils this forum and puts people off.......maybe leaving the forum........wtf are you on buddy? .........Let people have their say without "Judgement"........I lived in nz for 22 years and there is a ceratin element who have this way about them= " If i dont agree with what you are saying....then you are a fruking idiot".....so i will insult you now.........How narrow minded is that?

Dont spoil this forum with your narrow mind......agree to disagree without being rude......Harden up you ****s that get easily offended.........I can only put it down to an insecure ego...........Everyone on here has a right to their say without being looked down on.......personally ...I embrace everything people have to say....always open to new ideas and keen to learn more.........I dont look down or look up to anyone......everyone is my equal and gets my respect.......To rude people........**** off somwhere else........Learn some manners.

Ok what I can decipher from this load of dribble is......

"Don't belittle me or anyone else as we belittle others and tell the world how awesome we are."

Coming through loud and clear 555.
