JP Bartholomew with his noteworthy Giant Kingfish taken on the KZN North Coast on fly!
A kingfish on fly.
Even a small one will knock your socks off. Their dogged fighting style transmits back through the fly line direct to your hand and fingers as you battle with the one to one ratio. Luckily the soft fly rod allows the kingfish to fight back a bit, and usually, they are not as tired when you finally get to release time. Gentle on the fish, fly fishing is true sport.
But you best tackle up for the GT. And for keeping pace with JP Bartholomew. Your most direct access to your dream fish.
JP works the KZN north coast for his ultimate nemesis – these GT’s. And along the way, he catches everything else. Including the ever elusive bonefish, the seasonal garrick, huge shad, all the species of available kingfish, pompano, queenfish, mackerel – all on artificials.
JP has recently joined The Sardine team of guides and operators, and his services – available from GT Adventures, can be read all about, right here.
GT has long been a contributing author to The Sardine News. You can read all about just some of his fishing antics at the following posts…
