Nice stripey on the trace |
Hi all, Just
back from another stunning trip with some hard core jiggers from Jigstar
Africa. This was a trip first and foremost about jigging for big kingis, but as
as you can see there is plenty of marlin about as well, we never actually targeted
marlin just trolled lures between kingi spots and we tagged 4 from 7 bites, man
makes me wonder what would have happened if we had spent some time targeting
them. The Kingis bit well with many in the 30’s and 2 over 40kg with the best a
huge 45kg fish, many more monsters were lost that either reefed the boys up or
busted line or leader. If you have a trip up here I would like you to think
very carefully about your tackle, we see trip after trip the boys being owned
by monster fish and busting main lines mostly, you pay a lot of money to get to
the Three kings and the only thing that holds you to that fish of a lifetime is
your terminal tackle SO GO HEAVY , If it was me I would fish 130lb braid and
150lb fluro, many of our return clients do and notice no change in the bite
except went hooked to a giant they land it, not lose it. The three kings is not
like other places that receive a lot of pressure with fish becoming line shy,
please think about it. Till next week Cheers Lance.
