Thread: Giant Trevally

Aututaki lagoon is very good for lots of game fish. GT's. Bonefish, Sailfish, Tuna, Mahimahi. If I was looking thats where I'd start for an all out holiday with fishing. Last time I was in Raro I sweet talked a commercial guy to letting me come out with him. All fish caught on rods and by the end the guy trusted me enough to deal to it all myself. He had a setup where they could steer up front with a rudder. They would pursue mahimahi with a speer off the bow solo. Also he had a motobike helmet with a lantern on top. He reckoned he'd go out at night and flying fish would fly at the lamp and he'd try catch it with a net.

Thats the boats , they did have spears on board as well . I payed $40 bucks ( his fuel ) to take me out . Got about 200 flying fish , they sell them 6 for $10 .
