This time, it's angler 2, cudas nil. The first cuda, an 8-pounder, struck the 150mm lure on the first cast and put up a great fight with more than several good runs. We found out that besides being hooked at the mouth, one treble found its eye. We first removed the hook on its mouth, then carefully debarbed and removed the other hook from its eye. It was then released back into the sea.
45 minutes after the first cuda, the same angler, using a different lure, had another fine surprise. This time, it was a fine 6-pound cuda. A quick photo and it, too, was released.
