Once the exclusive preserve of commercial fisherman, recreational anglers are now investigating the deep reefs that lie either side of the continental shelf drop off, which are home to deepwater ooglies like blueeye trevalla, gemfish, hapuka, bass groper and cod.
Extra-deep-water bottom fishing is fast becoming extremely popular. Once the exclusive preserve of commercial fisherman, recreational anglers are now investigating the deep reefs that lie either side of the continental shelf drop off, often in depths up to 250 fathoms. This is a long way down and a long-way up — especially with a hefty fish or two on the end.
With anglers now targeting bar cod, blueye trevalla, hapuka, bass groper and gemfish more often, happily, Shimano’s Beastmaster electric fishing reels, when matched with Shimano’s TCurve Revolution Offshore or Tag-Em Deep Dropping rods, take the pain out of this deepwater enterprise.
