New GT Fiji Record

[bitemefiji]

Dan with huge GT in FijiUntil recently, Bite Me's Popper Casting GT record was held by visiting angler Dan Ryan with a very respectable GT of about 30kg.

This week Phil Calderon, originally from Costa Rica but visiting from California, smashed the existing record with a whopping GT that would have gone about 80lbs using the GGxFL/800 formula, had the fish not been released.


With perfect popper casting conditions and a hot bite in his favour, Phil made the most of his time aboard Bite Me landing many GTs, dogtooth tuna, red bass, bluefin trevally and green jobfish, but the highlights were his first ever Dogtooth tuna and the new Bite Me GT Record.

Phil is now off to New Zealand in search of his first ever Yellowtail Kingfish.

Good luck with those NZ Kingies Phil.

Congrats on smashing the GT Fijian record. Nice to see you release that beautiful fish. I have caught a couple of uluas in Kona. The GTs in Fiji are on the lighter side than the ones caught in Hawaii...although still a great catch.
