Bali Fishing 14 February 2010 – jigging for dogtooth and ruby snapper
Written on February 14, 2010 – 4:54 pm | by Bali Fishing
We went out 2nd time with the 12 feb 2010 client, he wants to experience dogtooth tuna bite in bali waters.
so then we picked him up at lembongan island at 7:30 then headed for fishing spots right away.
i feel today will not be so much early as two days ago, it turn to be not true, after two times of playing jig, we had a double strike !!
both rods were bent trying to hold the heavy load into its structure, the first one landed minutes later by mr. Kurt, its a 13 kilos ruby snapper. then the 2nd one landed few minutes later, its a nine kilos of ruby snapper.
after a short break (and beer), we did some more jigging, another 30 minutes past, no bite, then one bite at the front deck, fight a bit, then lost !!!
we decided to troll chin-weighted balyhoo for a while, waiting the bottom current to be calmer, few roounds no bite, we then going for the other jigging spot, a 570 grams red back and white belly was lowered, 1 time, no bite, 2nd time, a monster seems pulling the line so quick on the stella reel. judge from the way its run, its gotta be dogtoot !!
Kurt fought the fish, pumping and reel in the 65 lbs tuffline xp into the 10.000 size spool, the spool has spill 200+ meters, unstoppable, jigwrex rods bent and keep bent redistribute the load to its backbone, then…
the power that pulling the line out stop and rod back straight, ouch !! lost the dogtooth tuna … !!
we tried again jigging for an hour, no bite so then we decided to head back.
total today 2 ruby snappers, not bad for a 4 hours fishing. The bottom current was very strong that at the end of the trip, 570 grams metal jig did not reach the bottom, drifted away by the current, the sufrface current were average of 1.2 – 2.4 – 3 knots.
