VIDEO: Seychelles GT fishing action

Brad Arthur of Freespool and former international cricketer, Justin Kemp, have again gone GT hunting in the Indian Ocean.

They come across some huge Seychelles GT and get a taste of the power these fish are famous for.

We have previously also seen the Freespool team catching GT in Oman and off Sodwana here in KwaZulu-Natal.

Poppers almost always seem the preferred bait and make for a very visual experience as they are hit by GTs on the ocean surface.

I also recall a fishing trip of my own with Freespool that yielded seven garrick and two small GT.

That was off Zinkwazi back in July last year and both GT were also caught on lures that day.

Six of the seven garrick were caught on live pinky, while the other one grabbed a lure.

I have heard of a grunter of around 7kg caught near the yacht moorings in Durban harbour this past week. Ginger shrimp was the bait used.
