How incredible is this!

Absolutely incredible!! A marlin from the beach!! Andre Mellet @winchcastingbraid had an amazing catch off the beach yesterday catching a Marlin on spinning gear...read his story below. "What started as a normal spinning session targeting big GTs at Rocktail Bay in the Kosi Bay area of Northern KZN turned into something I never expected.I was fishing fairly light to get maximum distance, running 35lb WINCH CAMO braid on a Shimano, with a 60lb WINCH CAMO braided leader and a 1-metre section of 1.3mm mono for a bit of stretch and abrasion resistance around the reef. On the end was a Chaos GT Ice Cream plug, worked hard over clean water. Conditions were spot-on — clean sea, very little swell, and perfect visibility.Then, out of nowhere, all hell broke loose. The lure got absolutely smashed and the fish took off straight into deeper water. The drag was set properly tight, but even so it still ripped 100 to 120 metres of line off in the first run. Almost immediately the fish came out the water, jumping and greyhounding — and that’s when I knew this was definitely not a GT. Proper Marlin behaviour.Luckily the fish was well hooked. The mono leader really helped with the shock from the jumps and sudden changes in direction. Once it started to slow down a bit, I had to lean on it properly, pulling as hard as I dared to keep it away from the reef. It was a fine line between giving it horns and not popping the braid.Against all odds, and on what’s basically GT spinning tackle, I managed to bring the fish under control and land it safely from the shore. Landing a young marlin on 35lb braid, off the rocks, is something I’ll never forget. I felt seriously privileged to be part of that moment. " @winchcastingbraid @gofishmagsa

We headed out to Cape Point, South Africa and experienced an epic tuna fishing session where everyone on board managed to hook up! 🎣

Fishing aboard the Waterbok, operated by Cape Marine Adventures, we were treated to incredible offshore action with powerful tuna fights and screaming reels. By the end of the trip we landed 2 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Longfin Tuna, making it one unforgettable day at sea.

Cape Point is famous for its world-class tuna fishing, and this trip showed exactly why. From solid hookups to intense battles, this is the kind of offshore fishing every angler hopes for.

Thanks to cape marine adventures for an epic day!

8 years ago when my regular 2 week fishing trips to the Wild Coast were fully stocked😂🐟🎣

What an awesome day out on Waterbok with cape marine adventures. If you are in Cape Town and want to get out there and catch some fish be sure to get hold of them🙂 shot Craig Griffin for getting us onto the fish!

A glimmer of hope for a species that I didn't even realise had become locally extinct!
