Maybe you've fished for them, maybe you've never heard of them, and maybe you've seen videos of them eating birds off the surface; Giant Trevally. They are the wolf, the apex predator, their relentless aggression towards everything that can swim on a flat is likely what makes them such a desirable species to chase with a fly rod.
In the heart of the Indian Ocean, renowned angling guide and filmmaker Jako Lucas documents five minutes and twenty-five seconds of absolute Giant Trevally magic. The Seychelles is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after fly fishing destinations on earth, and this short video captures it perfectly.
There is a part of me that wishes Gangsters of the Flats was a full-length feature film. See it below, and enjoy this instalment of Cinematic Sunday.
