The crew headed out for a fun day out on the water and we decided to fish light tackle just for fun. With Charles Wheeler at the helm, Fred landed this 68 Kg Yellowfin Tuna on 24Kg line. Not a bad effort after 40 minutes and John tagged a Blue Marlin around the 130Kg mark on 15Kg line. A great effort after a one hour fight!
A satisfied angler displays his 18 Kg Yellowfin Tuna. He is aboard Nevagivup and the fish took a soft head squid just off Devil’s Fad. For Your Information: F. A. D. stands for Fish Aggregation Device and is a general term used to describe any structure placed at sea for the sole purpose of attracting fish.
Fred sits proudly behind a very nice Yellowfin Tuna he landed aboard Nevagivup.
Here we see Fred weighing in this beauty of a Yellowfin Tuna. I can’t tell from the photo as the scales are facing the other way but I reckon the fish would go about 55 Kg.
How is this for a days catch. Twelve Yellowfin Tuna and every single one of them a fighting fish of note.
Look at the size of this puppy! This angler is absolutely ecstatic after landing no less than 11 large Yellowfin on a day out aboard Horizon.
This 45 Kg Yellowfin Tuna was taken on board Horizon.
With a whopping 30 charters in August and 36 charters in September, Crusoe Fishing Adventures has had it’s busiest months since we have been here!
Leanne and her partner Tim fished with us in August and managed to fish a day on each of our boats. Their end tally was 7 Blue Marlin raised, 4 hooked and 1 tagged. The fish were winning that week! They also ended up with a nice mixed bag of Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi and also raised a couple of Sailfish. The pictures are of Leanne with a small Vanuatu Yellowfin and Tim with a nice Bull Mahi Mahi.
This month I am going to list the newsletter stories individually on our blog as it is more suited for that format.
