Yellowtail on Spoon - Unusual Catch from Shore in Kzn

[CLS]

Nice fish well done, seeing all type of game fish being caught from the shore lately.

Well done, I remember a mate of mine Lemon (Aqua acadamy) catching one on a cuta trace off Lugs a couple of years ago, I think it was a 17 kg fish. I only know them in the cape and on the wreck and big reef of the KZN South coast

Awesome catch! Congratulations! Please share kit used - rod, reel, braid?

Thanks for all the comments.
Cage I think I may have posted setup before. The rod is a Shimano Lesath coupled with a Stradic 5000FJ. The reel is spooled with 40lb Gator Braid backing with 0.2mm Berkley Nanofil on top. I then tie about a 7m leader using a modified cats paw (bimimi to bimimi) with about 1,5meters of fluorocarbon to a power swivel. Spoons / lures are attached to swivel with split rings.
I caught this fish on a Chase S Bend spoon. I had removed the colour sticker as the water was quite clear (not crystal clean) and the sun was reasonably bright. I like the silver flash that scraped white metal gives off in clean water with bright light.
