But smart fish, keep going underneath the shetter and try to cut the line which make us suffer to fight it out. The rest of us all landed 23-25kg fishes... Enjoyable trip after all and manage to found out that the Sea Bass pond is an hour away from BSL. The size is in range of 3-4 kg. We are planning to go there next trip to try.... Also some other fishes in BSL which we never land. Next time must go! Good food, good fishes and good massage. Cheers. | |

My Mood: Rep Power: 4 ![]() | Hi Octopus, Probably around 10 to 15 mins to land one. It all depends on what size and aggressiveness of the fish. You should go and try one. It is helluva fight. Cheers. |
