Gday mate, I lost your number when I drowned my phone. If you could send me a pm with yours that would be great. Yeah dont post much anymore cos I have to save most of the good pics for the mags, but this one was too good to go by.
Didnt measure the fish as my boat is fully carpeted and didnt want to lay the fish down as they lose a lot of slime when you do that. Rather give it a better chance of survival.
Rod
No snapper you say roderick??? I beg to differ! hahahaAwesome fish!
PM me your email Rod. The pics are pretty clear and it's 2048x1536 res. so pretty big as well. Still not sure if the quality is up to scratch for a mag shot but we shall see I guess.

Troy

The Rod was a Loomis Pro Blue and the reel a 4000 Certate Hyper. Any less and the big Snapper just bury you.
Rod
what line you run on the certate ?
im running a certate 3500 with 30lb sunline on it and it seems pretty potent

Same rod mate 15-30lb Pro Blue. I was getting done just about every outing until I upgraded. It handled the Jew really well never felt undergunned at all.
Rod
Great fish. Even better that it got to fight again. Top Stuff.
You are entitled to my opinion!

You've been hiding for that long rod and resurface with that!
Top fish mate!

Shit yeah that's a cracker Rod. When are you taking me out cause Nathan can't put me onto any fish out there!
My Thready was bigger then yours
Troy
it starts to get a little hard going outside in a 3.95m tinny chsing snapper at mid-day.
Awesome Jewie Roderick!!! Geez its a dark coloured one, maybe he's been trying to blend in with the Cobia out there!
I actually bream fished the Tweed last wednesday for a few hours on the way to the Clarence. I ran into a couple of your mates at the ramp that told me about your Jewie, they got a couple of cobes - one really nice one.
Looks like fatherhood hasn't slowed you down - yet!
Cheers,
Matt
