Well it was windy this morn, but i hooked up on a freight train first drop on the 30lb braid/trace. I was getting towed to the beach for about 40mins and it was a bit crazy but i kept calm and i am so glad i saw what it was. Way too big to keep and eat, but i would have loved to get it on a brag mat. A few pics in the water and it swam away. I don't think the pics do it justice but i reckon about 1.2m. It just keeps getting better.
top stuff carnster. maybe you need to "paint" a bragmat on the side of your yak?
fishing's as simple as 3 P's - patience, perserverance and PLASTIC!
unreal carnster. You would think by now, the fish would be used to the shape of your yak looking up and keep well clear of it.
That's a hell of a fish, well done mate.
Joel
Fishing for the thrill, not for the kill
Carnster,
Pardon my ignorance, but is that a GT??
Whatever it is, what a cracker!!
Tony
Fantastic! Probably would have sunk the yak had you hauled it aboard!
Time to get a bigger Yak! Well done Carnster, what a fish! How many kgs is a 120cm GT? it would have to be at least 30 wouldn't it?
You are da man!
Matt
Thanks Matt and others, I reckon 30kg+. Certainly had a lot of girth. Was gr8 to watch it swim away. Even circled me once before taking off strongly.Originally Posted by matt fraser
Great fish and well done on the release. You should have put a harness on it and used it for an outboard for the day!
Cheers Freeeedom
nearly big as the one i let go in the river the other night
New benchmark set Carnster. Top effort mate that is a great fish in any ones language.
man it was windy this morning you would have had it all to yourself top fish! Not long before the macs arrive??
Congratulations- what a awesome fish and so much better from the yak
Yep, you set the bar once again mate. Well done
