Wow big fish!!!! What a challenge catching these large ocean predators on light tackle. 

Here we tackle giant ocean Garrick (Leervis) on ultra-light river tackle. As the Sardine run (greatest shoal on earth) picks up momentum so the large pelagics also arrive in large numbers. With food being plentiful due to the abundance of sardines the Garrick can be very temperamental often ignoring the lures we cast towards them. A change up to much lighter tackle can sometimes be the answer to getting the fish to eat the lure. When we do finally hook up it is an amazing challenge to land these large fish on such light tackle. #angling #boat #lighttackle #spinning #transkei #wildcoast #amia #garrick #lures #topwater #sardinerun #easterncape #southafrica #liche
