Fantastic Arno, must admit it was a tough week sitting at work knowing that you chaps would be hammering the fish. Cheers Paul

LOL, I believe that jig worked well for you guys... That is the type of feedback we as tackle dealers really appreciate. I mentioned I'd sort you guys out with the next trip... Steve said he was going again next year, will you be joining him?

Ja - the plan is to go next year Nov. A better time for surface action. But will keep posted. You should try and get some of those jigs in 200g - its the prefered jig for the locals.

Yet this has been the top selling / producing jig in 200g. Attached Reinhard v. Rooyens 29kg GT caught off Durban this year on the Orange one.

Hey Arrie,

 

Really chuffed to hear your trip went according to 'plan' - I had a feeling you guys couldn't fail - really is a great place to fish i am sure you will agree...lol..!!

That size marlin on a popper rod - you must have been burning up - it really is world's apart from fighting them on conventional gear and big game boats - to get them in on that gear takes brute strength, luck and will power...!

Great result...!!

RF.

Jovis - ja, anders as Seychells jig jy net en baie minder popping. Ons gaan volgende jaar Nov terug en dan wil ek die popping n groot go gee.

Maar n amazing plek met ongelooflik baie vis !!
