Awesome stuff, I love how the bar is continually being raised and limits being pushed. What a capture! Cheers David ------------- Fishing Vanuatu - Trees & Fishes Anglers Lodge | Vanuatu Mothership Adventures | New Caledonia | Malaysia |

Great footage, the angler looked pretty cool under pressure. That hook must have only just been hanging on. Very impressive and makes catching one on 24/37kg full game rod and reels look like over kill and clumsy.
Love to catch some thing like that off the Eastcoast. ------------- ---/--- Better a Slackline that goes Tight than a Tightline that Goes Snap. |

| Whoa! I dream of catching fish that large on a popper. 40 kg is enough of a rush.... imagine 113kg! |

| I like the way there is some sort of set up to act as lugs for a spin reel to be able to use a harness...are these available readily here? |
