Kim’s first sailfish

IMG_0836-Kim and Shane are seasoned anglers who have caught many fish but never a sailfish. So it was awesome to see Kim catch, land and release her first sailfish. A very stubborn fish at that that gave her a good workout.

Kim handled the fish and gear expertly staying very composed throughout though it was getting a little strenuous on the muscles towards the later stage.

Fishing can be such a great bonding activity or sport. I am always happy to see good friends having a blast fishing together. The same goes to parents who fish with their children and of course, happy couples like Kim and Shane here.

I have been putting to the test some Penn gears, specifically the Penn Fathom 30 that you can see in action here and also the Penn Spinfisher V 6500, Penn Spinfisher V 4500 Live Liner and a Penn Legion rod.

The Penn gear have been performing well and will be put into more punishments. More test review results and opinions about them later.
