Russell favours targe ng pelagics such as Marlin , Dorado , Couta , Wahoo , Tuna , Garrick , Snoek , Kingfish and many others , through various tac cs such as ver cal jigging , live bai ng , trawling and dri bai ng .
Aside from many successful game fishing trips and billfish catch and releases , one of the highlights of this year , was the successful catch and release of his first Sailfish at the Billfish 15 000 !
David ( 12 ) has caught his fair share as well – that ' s when he ' s not off-road motorbike riding in the country with Russell and friends .
As for the future ? Russell has his sights set on the new HDS Carbon 9 – which can be linked to his exis ng units .
We look forward to many more successful catches from this busy Lowrance Ambassador !
He says the backup service and technical support from Liz and the Lowrance team is outstanding – as is their commitment to the sport of fishing . “ They put back so much in support - sponsoring and a ending many compe ons – whether Bass or offshore !”
Not only was the move to Durban good for Russell but for the whole family who o en accompany him on trips out to sea and are also developing their own passion for deep sea fishing and the ocean .
Fourteen-year-old Rachel is mad about fishing and she rarely lets an invita on slip by to spend me on board .
She won the Top Junior Ladies prize at the Durban Skiboat Fes val this year .
