Would be interested if your mate could post video of the baits/rigging they were using and also how they sharpened up the knives!

The baits are usually garfish with 12'o or 10'o ganged mustad allrounders with a squid skirt onto 3mm s/s wire connected to 400lb mono onto a large snap clip connected to around 40m of 5mm leaded cord line,sometimes with a paravein.

The knives are stone and steel sharpened regulary.

Amazing...I feel so inneffective !!! Hoping to get a bit of practice in just over a week though...if the guys at the Agnes M & G have left me any spaniards!!

I watch this before we headed up to 1770 and copied the same technique on the spanish we caught (although at about 1/5th the speed) and found it very effective. Was certianly very cool to watch.

Went on a trip to the Swaines 3 years ago and the deckie, Marty, could strip both sides of a Coral Trout in 7 seconds.
I have a phone vid of him doing some fish somewhere. I will find it and post it.

[myusernam]

why do two cuts along the bottom????
unless he is cutting up to the backbone on the first run and then running along the top of the backbone on the second?

WHOAA! I thought i was pretty good at it. I now realise i'm just an amateur. Ben
