The fish looks innocent and they don't struggle when they are caught. Such a beautiful place. A magic place.

Don't struggle when they're caught?! HahahaHAHAHAhahahaHA!!! I must be confused about what you're meaning. Because if you say they don't struggle: Then what would YOU call the 20 or so minutes that it took for Peter to battle this Goliath GT, so that he could get it tired enough to reel in, unhook, and photograph it?? Most fisherman refer to this as fighting the fish...BECAUSE the fish STRUGGLES to get away, and the fisherman struggles to catch it. GT arguably "struggle"(fight) harder than ANY other fish in the world ...hence the massive draw to pursue them as a species. How about YOU try catching one first, and then try telling us they don't struggle....because after you catch your breath, you'll say NO such thing!! Anyways, I dream of one day pursuing and catching a Giant GT. Beautiful locations, beautiful fish, amazing fight. Well done Peter. Cheers!!

15 years ago when we went there, they were serving us Trevally for dinner. We were aghast and spent the whole week telling the kitchen and guides at Capt. Cook we'd gladly eat pork and beans from a can rather than kill this magnificent fish. It's essential to remind the locals everywhere that the reason we come there is to CATCH not to eat and they'd be well served by making sure the game fish are left to thrive. Great footage. Nice job Peter.

Barry, we let me give you a very big thank you for its because people like us who care about our fishing that these fish are still around in good numbers to fish for and catch. They also a few year back now banned gill nets for the Bonefish and both their numbers and size have come back at an amazing rate. Glad you liked the film and your comments.

Have you tried Skagit Style of Spey casting for GT? Skagit Spey allows huge flies and wind does not become a factor. One can cast off of either downwind shoulder. You can use heavy sink tips or floating tips. Huge flies generally mean huge fish. Would a two-handed 1214 rod give you 80-110 ft casts and put you in deeper water for bigger fish with less effort? Honestly, you don't need any improvement over current technique. Great video.

you are gonna break your rod one day by holding it above the cork when fighting big fish. Happened to me once during one of the salmon seasons in Oregon. I talked to the owner of the local fly shop and He said that every time you hold a part of the rod thats not cork, It weakens it until it will break when you are fighting a fish! Amazing fishing footage though! Never fly fished in salt water before even though I have a salt water reel and rod...

Hi Peter, I know I do play fish hard and I also put tackle through its paces, thats one reason tackle manufactures use me to test me tackle as I will test it to distraction. The rods I was using did not have enough backbone to finish the fight so I had no choice but to put my had up the rod to effectively shorten the rod and give it more power

@SportquestHolidaysDestinations
@SportquestHolidaysDestinations 10 жыл бұрын
Hi Deborah, yes I have stayed at Sharks Place a few times but no longer use it and now use and manage bookings for another lodge. These fish on this video are all caught on the fly and no chum. We found fish on some of these small flats quite close to the mouth of the bay. There was a large group of small Queenfish and Mullet on the end of this flat which seemed to keep the Gt's active. There was so many Queenfish they were a pain keep nipping the fly when trying to fish for the GT's. If you stripped fast you just got hooked up on Queenfish, one of my friends who was with me, foul hooked a queenfish in the back while stripping it went mental and in a panic swam of the flat and immediately got eaten by a 60lb GT. He even managed to land the GT was so funny to see. There is chumming as we all know happening on xmas and other destinations, I am not sure if I think its a issue tho, as I have not seen it effect the fishing in anyway. Also if thats what people want to do I would not knock them after all its only another method of fishing. I like stalking them best, but I have also learned after of 15 trips there at certain times with certain tides, there are some great places to stake fish as we know groups of GT's will come hunting past.

Peter, superb stuff but just a comment or two on your CAR technique; First up to hold a fish dangling by its tail puts heavy stress on its spine with a high likelihood of permanent damage, also taking tired fish straight on of the water once it is dusted is like dunking a person's head into a bucket of water at the finish line after running a fast 800m, best to give them 30/45 seconds or so to recover in the water prior to lifting for the photo. Just a thought, but great footage nonetheless.

They are nice, though I like black, island and sometimes blue trevally more, though it depends where you catch them, if there is Ciguatera poisoning they are one of the most dangerous fish to eat. Coral trout is nice too but its also dangerous if theres risk of ciguatera poisoning but basically any reef and inshore fish or fish that prey on them are a risk if ciguatera is present, and the poisoning can have really long term and unpleasant effects.

@@dirkvandermerwe6027 Amen to Dirk, here in Hawai'i we don't eat White Ulua aka Giant Trevally due to ciguatera especially those over 20 pounds. The under 20 pounders though less likely to have ciguatera due to it being cumulative in nature both in the fish and the fisherman they just don't taste all that great. What's a shame here is that many local fishermen will keep the larger 100+ pound fish just to have mounted for bragging rights. These larger fish are the best breeding stock.

When I sent him your video, I asked him if he had had any fish biting on his line that were as big as the fish you were catching! LOL! Trust me, in our inland lakes, THAT will NEVER happen! LOL!😃😊

Ha Ha Racingirl that made me laugh... I am sure that if your son keeps up with the fish he will progress to bigger fish. Hell I can remember love catching fish 1 inch long and loving it. I still today fish for small fish, its all about how you fish for them and the tackle you use. If using balanced tackle regardless of their size all fish fight. Its all about giving them a sporting chance. Thank you for subscribing please feel free to watch all the videos and help me spread the word by sharing with anyone and everyone.

+Sportquest Holidays in hawaii we call the gts ulua, it's the most sought out fish on the island but it's gotten so fished out from all the people laying nets it's sad. I'm glad Christmas Island is the way it is, catch take pic give your fish a kiss then off to the next. I'll experience that one day, congrats on all your catches!
