While puka fishing out of Tutukaka over the weekend we had a 180 - 200kg sword chase our puka up to the surface. Pitched a blue kohe at it but all it wanted was the 20kg puka. May aswell dust the game gear off now.

That's a good one. Bet that got the blood pumping. Wonder if that's the same spot I hooked one puka fishing a few years ago.

Great stuff, well done.
Those that say it can't be done are being overtaken by those doing it.

Was great catch. Saw it weighed yesterday evening. Spoke to them later, said they got it around 550m up towards Brett and it took a big lure.
Saw lots of boats heading out this morning, conditions looked mint.

The BET I believe was 550m off Cape Brett and on a large lure.
