Kelly II, the 26 ft Caribbean owned by Jason Alexiou and Maddalena Martinengo, has managed to achieve another World Record, while fishing out off Latham Island, hooking up and landing a nice Dogtooth Tuna of 71.5 kg on 30 lbs.
The fishing was very good with several Giant Trevally on the 25/30 kilo range hooking up and a few dogtooth already caught.
Most of the fish were hooked on live rainbow runner trolled along the drop off or by trolling lures in between live baits.
While one dogtooth was being fought another dogtooth came up on the surface.
A jig was dropped down as fast as possible and retrieved.
The hook up was immediate.
The fish took several determined runs trying to cut off the line on the reef but we were lucky and after 30/40 minutes the fish was landed.

Congratulations to Jason Alexiou and to the crew of Kelly II
