Anyone interested in an ultra light line billfish world record? Got to be bait 'n' switch with a J hook so that the fish initially stays on the surface attempting to dislodge the bait .... then the G & S technology takes over -
- and the flying gaffs are deployed.It does of course occasionally go wrong. Whilst not quite as fast in terms of reversing this was Stewart Campbell's attempt for a 30lb record in Madeira on Chunder - a 42’ Gamefisherman -
. If nothing else it reminds you that you really do have to wind the swivel hard into the top roller in case the ‘deckie’ has to dump the leader on a ‘green’ fish.But is it fishing?
