After phoning my mate last Sunday arvo for a fish he said "I dont Know I might see u down there" so I went anyway. scored some live bait a few prawns couple of hours later I see my mates coming! Still havent had a touch after a few more hours wat was bound to happen happened our to rods sitting side by side one started screaming I thought beauty it sounded like mine! Ran to my rod it wasn't mine it was his>:( of course it was gonna be, Ive done it to him thousands of times it was now his turn! After 5 mins of an awsome fight losing 140m of heavy braid guess wat surfaced a 12-14 kg Threadfin salmon:o Ahhh! he done well im not gonna take anything away from him it was a great fish! Im just jealous


Well done mate

That is one awesome fish - it amazes me the number of XOS salmon reports that I've read for down your way. Especially in the last couple of years. I'm in Townsville and I've caught a grand total of 2 both caught on the same trip a couple of years ago.

I think there's a fair amount of pressure from pro-fishing so maybe that explains it but, they are great eating and more than a few of my ex-Darwin mates reckon they're better eating than barra. I disagree on that one but geez, they put up a good fight.

Good onya.
