GIANT TREVALLY
As all fisherman know, a fish on topwater is so much more exciting than one you can't see take your lure. GT's Giant Trevally have to be one of the meanest fish you can catch on a surface lure...
LINES:
The braid and leader I run barely changes no matter what the technique!
Braid: Sunline Monster Battle
Designed specifically for casting poppers, stickbaits or metals at GT's, tuna, kingfish and other pelegics. This special high strength casting line is made from 8 strand HG-PE with a special surface resin to improve smoothness and casting distance. HG-PE is about 20% thinner than regular PE and offers excellent durability and long life. The sky blue colour is marked with a black line every 50m.
Colour: Sky Blue
Length: 300m
Line Classes: 50lb (PE 3), 60lb (PE 4), 80lb (PE 5, 90lb (PE 6), 100lb (PE 8), 130lb (PE 10)
Made in Japan
Leader: Sunline Big Game Shock
Big game shock leader has been designed for anglers chasing the larger sports-fish of the world and has gained a reputation of a leader that can be relied on when targeting that fish of a life time.
Commonly used for trolling for big pelagics like tuna and marlin, jigging for deep-water monsters like kingfish and samsonfish and popping for massive GT’s.
Manufactured using Sunline’s triple resin process, this nylon monofilament leader has great abrasion resistance, knot strength and stretch properties. It has also been treated for better UV resistance to avoid damage from the sun. Big Game comes in larger hanks to avoid memory which is especially important in the larger line classes.
Colour: Clear
Length: 50m
Line classes: 40lb to 330lb

STICKBAITS...
GT topwater takes are what it is all about, that explosion from a giant trevally on the surface is super hard to beat. For this reason i mainly run floating lures. I love fishing stickbaits on glass out, shallow reefs and small pressure edges where a big pop from a popper will scare most fish away.
