my friend got this thing this morning,at the mouth of the raby bay cannal, almost pulled the rod from his hand, I fell over laughing.
wasn't sure what it was so it lives to see another day.

I managed to hook up 3 fish at the same time on 1 line, never done that before so i was happy with myself, I've gotton a few of them before they don't look like the type of thing to eat but i'm just wondering what they are too.

Hey Mate
The top one looks like a Doggy Mackeral i think and the bottom ones are Butter Bream, the mackeral are great eating but that one looks too small.

Cheers ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
