It's in P.Ratu , to be exact , according to the boat crews this YFTs were amongst a school of dolphin . My nephew went out the next day and caught a 42.5 kg YFT , check the date on the attached image .

I was fishing in the same place a day earlier and only caught a few small ones . The guy must be in the right place , at the right time and have all it takes to finish the job . Congratulation .

Since then , the school of YFTs have moved out of the area , last week wend we did not see any schooling YFTs , only a few individuals junping here and there .

Caught a 67 kg YFT , beating the Japanese fish but still short of the 70 kg caught by Mr. Budiono Salim albeit I boated it in faster time , 5 minutes n 5 second ( with DVD as proof ! ) .

Hey there Sportfisherman. 5 min 5 sec! You are one tough dude. 70 kg or not, that's an awesome catch. Keep up the catch reports tough guy!
