I have NEVER caught this fish before

  • At last everything came together to give us the opportunity to launch the Excel Volaire on its maiden voyage. The sun was shining and the swell at a minimum there's only one place that I wanted to be. The boat was packed light, a couple of lure rods and boxes plus the essential safety gear and we were steaming towards the most epic of reef systems. Over the course of the day the tide pulled us in just about every direction imaginable but the fish were there and smashing every lure that was sent down. It was a spectacular day to be afloat but to top it all off the couches bream moved in on our lures to provide a really special time. This was a first for me and I was elated but this was overshadowed by the unit that my brother caught. We were both completely blown away, I didn't know they grew to such a size and what a surprise to find them so close to shore with water temperatures still sub 10 degrees.

    Well done with the fish you caught. My favourite fish to catch are Couches and Gilthead bream. The Couches you both caught were stunning fish. First time I have seen your videos and really enjoyed watching. Best wishes.
