Last trip in Pohnpei
Submitted by soupster51 on Sun, 2013-01-06 09:00
Went out yesterday for the last trip in Pohnpei. Nine foot swell and 25 knots - the trade winds are definately here. So it wasn't great but I targetted the many mahi that are here on light gear. Hooked up five and had a great time on the 3-5kg rod in the bit of calmer water we found.
It's been a fantastic three years catching every fish the pacific has to offer. Time to head back to Perth and get stuck into the many fish up and down the west coast.

well done
You'll be sad to leave alright soupy, especially when you can get fish like that in those conditions!
