Todays fishing

Took a mate from work out today to get her a billfish first. Ten minutes into the day any the long line screamed off with our fist black marlin.

Di got it in quite quick as she was on 24kg but as I grabbed the leader it went PING. Gutted and pissed off we put the spread out again and

had a beer. 3 hours later 3 sails  came onto the spread and  a double hook up ,one on 10kg  and the other on 24 kg. I grabbed the 24 to get it

quick and with rod in one hand and camera in other, took a quick pic then release. With some quick boat driving as Di had lost a hell of alot of line we landed it and she got to release hers. Great day as it always good to be fishing
