JP, the Mydo SS Spoon, and the Bluefin Kingfish

JP, the Mydo SS Spoon, and the Bluefin Kingfish

JP, the Mydo SS Spoon, and the Bluefin Kingfish: Following JP Bartholomew aka Bartman, on his fishing excursions across the oceans. This time JP checks in from Mauritius somewhere. Details are scant at this stage, but stories of big bust-ups are filtering through.

The Mydo SS Tuna Spoon that JP was throwing for a really big GT, got chowed by the most beautiful kingfish of all – the Bluefin Kingfish. aka Bluefin Trevally. Latin name is Caranx melampygus. If you speak latin?!

JP also snagged a real trophy on any lure – a bona fide bonefish that looks like 10 pounds! There notoriously fickle and difficult fish to catch grabbed the SS Tuna Spoon in a wave being dragged through a shoal of baitfish that the boneys were feeding on. Boneys are very hard to catch.

When JP returns, we can expect his full journal of what he has been up to. Fish by fish. But in the meantime take a look at the Mydo SS Spoon range in the catalogue at the following link…
