Dave was no more than 4 casts in on his trip on New Caledonia when he caught his first GT, around 15k. He continued along the reef casting towards the shallows and structure. The Rover 230 landed some distance away and he began another slow jerky retrieve. Then, as if in slow motion, he saw a big GT erupt and hit the lure side on, its body was almost completely out of the water. This was a good fish and he was loaded up with more drag than hed ever used before. The skipper drove the boat into deeper water for him to do battle with a solid winter GT. It was a tough battle with the fish using the current and its deep body side on to its advantage. Dave managed to hold his own and do well enough to get the GT alongside, so that the skipper and deck hand could carefully lift the 40kg fish into the boat.

Rob Chang, a Singapore based angler who has chased GTs on regular trips to the Maldives and Indonesia. On his trip to New Caledonia, Rob put on a surface stickbait to warm up on. He got into the action with the River2Sea Rover 230 stickbait, and went on to land a 25kg GT and then another 30kg specimen.
