Georgia's first marlin tagged

Well done to young local angler and fishing page regular Georgia Poyner who got her first marlin on Sunday, which was tagged and released. “She put up an awesome fight which lasted an hour an a half jumping only once and staying down deep for most of the time. Got it on my Jigging Master Powerspell 300g spin outfit using 10kg drag.” She estimated the striped marlin to be around 80kg. Well done Georgia, especially on light tackle!
