MALDIVES 2011 - Part Two

Small GT on popper...


More smallies, this on a large Orion...


Big GT which pulled the hooks after a long battle on the FCL 81EXT...


Spectacularly, this GT was landed without the use of hooks!


Yellowfin on Andaman...


Jobbie on Andaman...


Golden hued Amberjack on Andaman and Poseidon PE-3 rod...


Small GT on FCL SPP swimmer...


GT on Mangrove Studio Searoom pencil...


FCL Labo 80 EXT rod used to good effect...


Maldivian reef predators well-exhibited...


GT on sinking El Nadador stickbait...


The new FCL 81 EXT pushed hard by a good fish...


27kg GT taken on the well-perfoming Mangrove Studio Searoom stickbait...


FCL labo TCP220 accounted for this Red Bass...


Rosy Jobbie from the depths...


Another on Andaman...


More from the school, on Andaman as well...


Quite a few hard fighting Jobfish were landed, and big ones too...


Nassau Grouper a welcome change...


Another Jobbie, taken on FCL Labo VN jig...


Nice Amberjack to signal the end of the Jobfish invasion...


Deep dwelling Nassau Grouper...


Gold Spot Trev on a Hooker in shallow reefs...


The spoils of fishing in paradise...



Easily the biggest Red Bass of the trip...


Drama in the final hours of the trip as a proper GT latched on...


Nice 21kg GT to mark the end of a fruitful maiden popping trip for this angler...


The Mangrove Studio stickbait continued to produce...


And produce...


Until the sun set and the trip came to a close...
