Episode 133 - Crank Sinatra tells tales of Cocos and fast boats
Description
On Episode One Hundred and Thirty Three, we chat to a ledgend who on the eve of taking a week off, took our offer of doing a podcast with only hours notice. Lubricated with some of WA's finest hops based beverages, Cranky ( Matt Crnojlovic) takes us on a journey of Australia's Seychelle's, Cocos Keeling Island. Cocos ( The Cocchelle's) is a place that holds a stunning array of hard fighting flats species, such as Bonefish, GT's, Triggers, Permit, Silver Biddies, Maori Wrasse and of course Bump Head Parrots. Cranky drops a big truth bomb that has as much dentition as the bumpies themselves when it comes to fishing for them, that may make you rethink the beef when you are looking at the various Bumphead captures around the world.
We also go over that GT he caught on 20lb tippet that Cranky himself calls the best fish of his life!! A big call from a dude who has pinned a crazy amount of great species... the story is great !! Also learn about Usain Boat, the baddest boat in the west !!
