A CRACKER OF A DIAMOND @ Noosa 28-06-08

[Pistol_P]

OK all you little cheeky young blokes at Noosa.....Here is one for you to try and chase down....

Had a fish this afternoon with my good mate Craig and what turned out to be a slow session soon turned into a great one just before heading home.
We threw around poppers and plastics at all our normal spots for NO hits at all and we were talking about how unpredictable the Noosa river is.... ....So hot and cold.

Just before heading for home we threw plastics around again and I got a good hit and set the hook on a good fish...Had an awesome fight on the light 6lb gear with some very powerfull runs.We didn't know what to call the fish for during the fight and got nervous as I saw some colour....A DIAMOND and a big one too.

Guided the fish into the net and it was happy days.... ....

Some quick pics and the fish was released. `

Got to be one of the prettiest fish around I believe.

Cheers
Pete

Each to their own....They have some amazing colours in them...Greens,silvers,pinks....Hard to capture the true colouration in a photo.
Its almost reflective.
