2007 Year

2007 wasn't a bad year. It was the year of the Cliftons. I literally hit the place 3-4 times a week in summer. Partners in crime are my wife and Marinco the Macedonian. My PB king was landed this year, a 75cm king which put up a decent fight. It was also my first fish on the Branzino/Majorcraft combo, bait was fresh squid that was also caught in the morning. Besides kings, other species like trevally and salmons are regularly caught in the wharf. In spring time schools of watson's leaping bonito arrives, they are great fun. The wife had fun catching them.

Basic rig for the wharf is double bimini twist and connected to a 12-16lbs Nitlon FC leader tied with an improved albright knot.

I also have a couple of shots of the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo Japan, the biggest fish market in the world, anything from small snails to whales. The market was huge and there were some huge fish there too. The pictures showed some tuna ready to be cut up and sold, they are sold in auction.
