Aaron Passchier and the GT off Tofinho Point

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Aaron Passchier is certainly makinh a name for himself here in Tofo. Bringing catches home daily after work…braving the odd shark and now this over 25kg GT. Kingfish like this love the colder winter water, often coming right into the shallows and bays.

Aaron shot this in 22m of water. Nice fish pal!

Aaron Passchier and the Great White in Tofo

Aaron Passchier and family came fishing with us on Nikita a while back…had such a great time…he decided to stay!
Aside from shooting some nice couta and bottoms on his last few dives…he had to fight off a monster great white shark right off the Tofo point in 15m of water! After it buzzed him super close up…he chased and rammed it with his gun on his way up.
He managed to deter it and it went to his stringer…so he unclipped and swam for the shore sans big rubberlip and other fish on the buoy.
Very good survival instincts Aaron!
