    Jigging with the Prince in Bali- Team II revival tour 1

    Hi fellas,

    Firstly, many thanks to Narc for putting together this trip

    We fished Bali on 7/10 and 8/10, the first and second day after the full moon. Had planned to fish 9/10 (3rd day after the full moon) initially but scrapped the idea because flight schedules required us to take an additional day of leave. You might think we were crazy to have picked these dates so close to the full moon knowing how strong currents in Bali can be but a couple of days just after the full moon is supposed to be optimal for doggies.

    The water temperature was very cold (16 to 18 degrees Celsius)…so cold that a passing thermo cline produced a layer of misty fog on the sea surface. Winds were also cold but the sun was blazing hot, strange kind of weather…some rain on the first day too

    In what must be a very rare event, we spotted of a couple of Amberjacks attacking a school of baitfish near the surface!

    Currents were insane! 520g jigs had trouble finding the bottom in 30m of water! I’ve fished Bali a couple of times before but this was nothing like I had experienced in the past. Even a 650g jig had difficulty reaching the bottom

    Jigging was pretty good with many strikes and several double hook-ups. AJs were firing hot at one of these spots, we would drift back on the mark and get hit almost instantly again. Jigged very rough bottom and lost a lot of jigs. Narc also lost a big GT which the Captain estimated at over 30kg and had a couple of strikes while popping I broke a blue rose B51SD on a small AJ

    Overall it was a satisfying catch for us considering that we did only day fishing and returned early on the second day. Jigging produced 12 Amberjacks (the biggest at around 17 kg), 3 doggies (biggest at around 22kg) and 2 Rubys

    I don’t have many pictures so will need Narc to upload his pics and video at a later time.

    Tight lines

    Thanks MarkR, all I can say is Great trip, Great Company.
    That will include the company of Great Entertainer/Videographer Roland!

    Videocam not working properly after the accidental checking in, hope it can be repaired. So it will only be some photos for now.

    I can only conclude that this is the most fruitful trip we have had so far.... service wise and food wise were a little short though, but fishing is good.

    Hi Chris,

    The Captain, Suzuki-san's disciple was very hardworking. Deckhand service wasn't as good as on other boats and food wasn't good. The boat had little shelter too so we had to spend most of the time in the hot sun.

    Calm seas? Relatively calm but my team mate still turned as green as my crocs on the first day!

    Thanks to Narc and Mark for their patience and encouragement.

    Bros, thanks for showing me the ropes and introducing me to this "sadist" way of fishing. This being my first trip will not be my last. As promised, if I ever get the chance to do this again with you guys, I will work much harder.
    The last trip was "the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak".

    I had already set up a work out program to work on those weak fleshy arms of mine.

    Till we meet again.....................
