Golden Trevalley and Tusk Fish Part 2

No comments yet

Here's Part 2 of Golden Trevalley n Tusk Fish.
This one is a bit long winded, but I wanted to convey how this battle panned out and that Golden's are one tough fighting fish, especially when they are this big.
For your viewing pleasure, a few good captures. It's a shame a client cancelled his trip on this day, so I fished in perfect conditions, and had a really great day. This was the toughest fight a Golden Trevally has ever put me through..... epic you might say.
Such an epic battle and long fight, I will remember this day for a long time.
The Black Spot Tusk Fish was in perfectly clear and calm water, I was very surprised the fly didn't spook him. Instead he came straight over and ate it!!

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
