Part of a 4 way hook up, but with only 2 on board dropped the other 2. Lures that was 1 of the 2 big lures on the riggers & a small xmas tree & micro uzi on the corners. Was utter madness for a few minutes out at the trench.
would say in the 15kg mark, nice fish and not bad to boat a double , well done, looks like it might be another great pelagic year again, fingers crossed
Yes glastronic that is exactly like my boat (well a few years older then mine), not sure exactly what you mean but if your suggesting to far she carries 430L of fuel mate for about 400KM range & been out plenty further than 60k & in worse conditions. Best handling hull I have ever been in without being biased. We were over 80km out @ 1 stage Sunday.
Spot on Soupster both Yellow Fin, Shorter Fatter 1 went 14.7kg & longer slimmer 1 went 14.6kg.
Yeah Cahal we stopped for a spot of jigging @ the southern barge on the way out waiting to see what the wind would do, had 3 big hook ups but sharked so went trolling.
Too easy mate, all about knowing & being comfortable with your vesel's & skippers capabilities. Also knowing it is 100% reliable not having nigeling little issues if going out that far.
Cheers Sammi, yeah not to much clean up required after trip in. Will be doing a few trips up yoour way the next few months. Will T up when you & mick are off.
thats insane i would luv to catch 1 of those one day. pick my day ill try the trench no dramas been to derwant several times, so so close lol never tried trolling out there but definitely have to try it now :)
good chance to start using the structure scan to look for bait etc

Metro?
If that's Metro then that photo and tales of four way hook up is going to get people excited. I'm guessing back of Rotto??
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

Weighed
I'm guessing about 15-18kgs. Quality fish by the looks of them. Definately good enough to put up with crappy weather.

No sugestion at all, one can do what one thinks his craft is capable of doing.
I am trying to weigh up if my boat is safely able to do the same on it's own or better in a group of similair / bigger crafts.
Great from you to post this and to read and see the Tuna caught!.
