Bagged another blue on 30lb today only problem, it didnt make the 400lb mark Im looking for. Fish of 120-130 kg doesn't know how lucky it is. Twice the current record but shes swimming free. Trying to be patient and looking for a fat girl. Next time!

Went 1-1 on a Blue of 132 kg on 30 lb again today on Reel Magic out of Richards Bay. Unfortunately it tail wrapped and died arriving DOA after a 4 hr fight to lift it from 350m on bottom. Not a happy chap even though its an SA Record. Out tomorrow looking for a better fish!

Was out yesterday with the guys from Umfolozi casino on a peach of a day. What a great bunch of guys, just a pity the water has gone green on the inside after the big south westers early in the week. Water blue and 29 deg over the 600 with lots of birds and bonnies and little yellowfin. Big girls were quiet so we went hunting for the big yellows in the deep and found them. Had a shoal of 7-8 big yellows on the surface feeding but when we went over them they could be seen on the echo sounding with little interest in the lures. Will be back with plenty bait to see if we can do them in Cape Town style.

After an awesome break surfing my home break "Supers", golfing on our immaculate courses around St Francis, and hunting in the best area in SA its time to get back to the ocean for the last stint of the season. Some good movement on the Yellowfin side with 3 nice fish from 70 - 85 kg landed at St Lucia last week. Going to be some big blues around with them. Back in R Bay on Saturday 23rd to finish off the 2012/2013 season!

Heard of a nice blue

dropped 2 days ago on one of the few boats doing the trip deeper. Everyone chasing

now. Back tomorrow to charge the deep line and look for some fat ones. Weather looks good for the early part of next week. Reports imminent!!

Tight lines. be grateful you not fishing the pe tuna classic. 45 boats, 1 x 13kg yellowfin for the fleet yesterday. Min weight 15kgs so not even ont he prize list yet. eish.

Reel Magic Charters · « **Reply #315 on:** March 23, 2013, 09:18:42 AM »

Well they managed one fish of 15,8 kg that just made the minimum 15 kg mark. Real pity because the guys got good sponsorship this year and a lot of effort goes in. Plenty shoal yellowfin in Cape Town. Think water been super warm (26 deg) and the current pushed down far south this year. Sure there will be a late run as the fish do the return migration up the coast. Good few marlin caught in C Town this season!
Back to R Bay today ....will report soon!

Reel Magic Charters · « **Reply #316 on:** March 28, 2013, 04:31:59 PM »

Finally forced our way out on a pretty nasty sea and lasted till 12pm when a sick one forced us back. Not before dropping two marlin within 300m of one another. Water not epic but good temp and obviously some fish around. Two fish released at Mapelane and 3 nice tuna landed in the 80's. Looks like a few good fish starting to rise. All thats needed is some fishing weather!

You guys have such a nice long season.

Reel Magic Charters · « **Reply #318 on:** April 01, 2013, 03:16:21 PM »

Went 1-1 on a stripe on Reel Magic and dropped a 170 lb yellowfin at the boat 2 days ago. Then boated a 87kg/200lb Yellow yesterday. Spent the whole day chasing big Yellos under the birds. Must have seen at least a hundred that would not eat a lure. Chunked for an hour and had them around the boat, totally refused to eat a baited hook. When these fish turn on its going to be chaos!

Happy!
