This week we welcomed groups from Canada, France and Brazil. The week continued the trend of the previous week with some inconsistencies in action, harder slower days and alternatively much more productive days where the action flowed more consistently. We really do feel in the transition of seasons at the moment, we have the typical northerly winds expected at this time of year but still the temperatures of the water aren't matching so we are finding a spread of the bigger specimens hanging around still as well as the activity at the coast but some days more than others. The guys have certainly had to work for thier fish as always.
There was a couple of fish to note this week, first of all Lodge manager Kieren headed out one evening to catch a quick session and little did he know what he was in for when a Monstrous Cubera snapper smashed him up on his light SPJ outfit, incredibly after a true man V beast battle he brought the huge fish boat side and grabbed some quick pics before release, this fish was in the same sort of calibre as his monster World Record style topwater fish last season but to land one of that size on SPJ is somewhat crazy! A few days later Kieren headed out again for a few hours on his birthday to get his fix and this time latched into a big PB Corvina on SPJ to add to his already successful week!
Not to miss out on the action Francois on his 3rd trip to the lodge come up trumps when a monster Roosterfish hounded his popper, after a lengthy fight the incredible fish was landed and quickly returned after a few photos, an incredible specimen, he also managed many other Roosters through the week, with another big one at 20kg but returned boat side without photos. Pierre from Canada got his eye in on the big fish when a fantastic Cubera smashed his popper and successfully landed it, well done guys!
Orlando managed his topwater Cubera on the last day fishing off thier week nicely, along with a nice Corvina and some nice Broomtails coming to the boat for Gustavo and Gustavo Jnr also.
Pascal had some great opportunities at multiple Cuberas but sadly didn't get the upper hand on any but sufficed with some stunning specimen Pacific Red Snappers and Colardo Snapper as well as Rooster.
