MMMMMMATE. It was one of the best days on the water. Well done Brent. I was worried that i would Stuff up NET or Gaff. BOAT Brent both performed very well..

Congrats Brent,
It was a sure thing ..... But only a matter of time. You have every right to take this one, but we are on the same page for any future fish around that size from here on
Looking forward to catching up with you on the water!

Top snapper mate, congrats on the PB. What kind of outfit were you using to nail that big guy?
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Murph77 i used a Loomis /certate combo.
You need a reel with a smooth drag because any jerkyness in the spool will see a big fish break the line in no time.
It sure gets the adrenaline flowing knowing you are only using light gear and you pray your knots hold.
We get busted up all the time but thats fishing....just makes you try harder next trip until you finally nail the big one.
Cheers Brent

Heya Aquarius
Perfect size fish, gets you into that yeeha zone but still leaves plenty of room to keep nudging that PB up for more feel good days. If these plastics boys keep going the way they are the bait boys might have to try at this years Mud M&G
Steven78 always the net.
Nice snapper there Brent...Well Done
We will have to organise another trip again soon,Im still after that legal bay squire :cry:
cheers tim
Lovely Fish Brent, bet the grin is still strong mate.
Still chasing mine.......it will come.
Congrat's and bet your "high" feeling would last for many days...
Well done again
Hey Aquarius, all i can say is holy shit, well done. But just remember i'm gunna outdo all of you blokes this year. I have next week off so i hope the weather fairies are kind so i can have a shot.

"Now we have to sort Gillard" F@?k me RUDD again
Abbott and Newman what a great next few years "NOT"
WELL BLOODY DONE BRENT!!!!
I'm green (Mud) with envy and i am feeling TINN and my turn will hopefully come this winter! Patience is a virtue nonetheless and how bloody patient you have been!! Now we just have to be more patient and persist a bit more at Mud ourselves...
Excellent work again! You must have been thrilled to catch that on a blue/green 'PILLIE' (just for WEBBY)...
Take Care T
Well done Brent you look like a happy man mate. All that persistence obviously pays off! Id be keeping it to if that was my first fish that size, no matter what any one says enjoy that one on the bbq mate!

awesome fish, and on 12lb, even better!!
congrats
Guys your turn will come i'm sure and believe me its worth the wait.
My ultimate goal is to get a 10 kilo and release it.
I reckon that would make any fisherperson happy for life.
Cheers Brent
