Nice going Trevor! Looks like there are some bigger fish around this season?

Reel Magic Charters · « **Reply #262 on:** December 15, 2012, 06:49:52 PM »

Not as many as last season but definitely some good fish around. Saw a lot of flying fish today which is a great sign after the desert we have been fishing on this season! Had a good stripey bash the left hand side of the spread and hook up briefly on the shotgun then fall off

. Going to be deploying a pitch bait from now on, tired of them getting away with murder!

For all those who believe that all fisherman are bullshitters heres one in the eye..the unfortunate sight of the big fish tail wrapped and DOA. Senseless releasing it again wouldnt you say?

Gotta run over them before they eat..give them a chance, I have had huge success with mine. The big fish came on a UV purple skirted new Zulu Impi with the same weight added as the TT. Also running very well!

The Big T Zulu Impi that caught the big fish has exactly the same weighting as the new TT. Runs amazing with new UV skirts and catches big fish

Note the snapped hook and parted leader loop onto the pigtail. Fish got wrapped and when the body straightened it broke everything. Came in attached only by the pigtail embedded in its tail and a few wraps of the leader...lucky angler unlucky fish!

Released a young black of 100kg early this morning and had a few Dorado jump on board. Sea was horrendous and the crew fragile. Hoping for a blue or two in the next two days..weather looking good. Pics later!

Reel Magic charters does it again running two boats for 6 clients at moment and our second boat Boyance skippered by Hansie Van Wyk landed two fish of 219 and 285 kg on standup. Our 2nd 600 pounder this season. Reel magic had a good blue on for a while before it threw the hooks. Some awesome big fish around at the moment. Pity the clients are not up to the pace resulting in a tail wrap and a DOA due to the time taken to get the fish up. Heres to hoping for some more good days and clients who can stand the pace!

Todays fish on Boyancy for Reel Magic Charters

Went 1-1 on a black on live bait on Reel Magic today making it a first marlin for 5 of the anglers in our 6 man group for the trip. Fortunately the unlucky one got a fish with us last year...full house!

Reel Magic Charters · « **Reply #273 on:** December 24, 2012, 09:01:38 PM »

Change over day today with two airport runs so no fishing for us and a huge pity! Sounds like all the boats got fish today with up to 3 fish on a boat..damn! Merry Christmas all!

Well when marlin fishing is bad it really sucks! Have dropped 5 blues in 3 days and have run out of expletives. Thank goodness for a nice Yellowfin for a lucky 11 year old(Conrad) who's dad has given him 2 days charter for great school marks. Fished with us last year on his first sea outing and caught 3 tuna species. Upped his game somewhat this year with the biggest fish on Reel Magic for any 11 year old (58kg). Fought it like a champ unaided..great effort. Had a massive blue up that didnt hook up and it may have been just as well as its unlikely he would have managed. Next time Conrad!
