Yep, but remmember we were suposed to troll for Giant African Threadfin not jig for wreckfish.
I liked the jig, proper hooks for dealing with big fish.
Some time ago I got a much bigger one on a longer jig (FCL NATA custom colour) but at Lucira in Namibe.
And two years ago almost on the same place of Tre on my boat also a smaller one but allready nice size on longer jig also.

hehehehe, you should see the monsters I managed to locate for my uncle and father in law at Lucira, even bigger than mine.
The problem there is that I can not fish, heavy current, just locate fish, skip and try to maintain lines vertical, power drifting.
Every time I say I'm going there the guys leave everything and run to meet me hoping for an even bigger prize, last time my uncle got one +40Kg.
I go there 2 or 3 times a year.
Unfortunatly my old camera got broken and I lost the pics, my uncle has a pic on his camera but it's 1.000 Km away from Luanda and no internet.

Excellent Job Tre and Fedu,
Will have to see if there are any of those wreck fish around here in Senegal; probably the only fish left here with all the local fishermen cleaning out the ocean!
Fedu your new boat is killer, Miami Vise style - i like it. The boat in which i went fishing on Sunday here in Dakar was about 25ft long, had a 15hp motor and a top speed of 7 knots so i am very envious of your speed machine.
My ride for this coming Sunday fishing trip
Cooking waves and no one surfing; can’t wait for my boards to arrive
They have similar fish to SA here, Blacktail with a twist and I also saw a boat load of Streepies (Caranteen)
This pelican was harassing the ladies selling fish and it was very persistent
The sheep over here have legs like camels
Hopefully I will have some fish pics on Monday.

Hi Mark,
Good hearing from you, your pics still amazing.
Hope the shoulder is fine now and you manage to deal with our west african fish, they don't bite as easy as east african ones
Those boats are different from ours here in Angola they have that round thing in the back, intresting.
P.S. - That "Miami Vice" is not my new boat it's still the old one from when I did not fish as much as today.

Blaasoppie you make me happy to know I'm not the only one fishing from one of those. Except mine is 'blinged' with rodholders allover for trolling and stowage, a fishfinder, gps, roof and most important a floor! Mine is about 12 m in lenght and only 2 m wide which I had build brand new with a 40hp enduro.
What can I say, when you are desperate you'll do strange things to satisfy your urge! But she has served me well so far.
