Since my last trip to offshore fishing in Tanjung Pinang, Indonesia, I have been invited to join some of my kakis on "bigger" gamefishing and longer trips, 5days4nights LOB(Live On Board). Fishes expected will be in excess of 20kgs and above....
As the sheer size of the targeted fishes, i would need heavier fishing gears in terms of poundage.
Some questions already came to my mind:
1) Do I have the physical strength to handle the weight of the fishing gears and fish on board for a few days? Will my stamina last so long including handling the rock and roll of the sea?
2) Do I have the physical strength to fight this size of fishes? If YES, how long would i be able to withstand the sheer might and run of this pelagic fishes. If NO, should i go to a gym to work out my triceps and biceps prior to such a fishing trip?
This triggers my thoughts, GameFishing, is it a hobby or a sport?
