Marrakai, tell me about GT's !! Must be the toughest fish in the ocean pound for pound. In 1997 I was lucky enough to go to Midway island for 10 days. Caught a load of them, best was 80lbs. My mate was DETERMINED to catch one on the fly, as a birthday present a couple of months before I had bought him a 13wt Penn Int rod coupled with a similar reel. He went 37 for nought on one day !! They kept cutting him off on the reef. That was the first time I had ever picked up a flyrod. Jim, my mate, was into another GT so I picked up a little 8 wt to dabble over the side with a 2" white streamer on it. Rod suddenly hooped over, 50 mins later I had a 7 foot black tip at the side of the boat. Everyone thought that was hilarious, no one wanted to catch sharks but secretly I was quite proud, first ever fish on a fly !! Happy memories
