    Re: most annoying fish?

    Tarpon = my ratio of hooked to caught is about 5:1

    My other issue is barra on fly. Don't know why. but I have hooked 20+ and managed to find a way to drop them everytime.

    It would have to be a toss up between grinners and trigger fish. Annoying bloody things.
    No such thing as a fat alcoholic, just fat piss pots...

    Re: most annoying fish?

    I find the people I fish with more annoying than any fish I actually catch so I can't really answer the question but........................

    Jarrah Jack traveled, whilst towing his boat all up the East Coast, from Victoria to 1770 to catch Snapper on the Great Barrier Reef during the M&G!!

    How annoyed do you reckon he was?

    One for the south oz crew.....the inescapable, insatiable and utterly intolerable SHITTY. these little bastards have ended many summer time trips.
    Like piranhas they strip any hook of any bait even when there are large predators around. Hate the little f#$c%rs with a passion.

    Yeah chinaman , but the fish I hate the most is those rotten 5-8 ft sharks on overnighters who turn up and basically eat every large mouth nanny or red you hook up.
    Total guts of evil, and still hatching ideas to get rid of them. Any ideas? ? Got a few from a pro which I can't describe on here

    If you are willing to share with another local bloke I am all ears. We've had a terrible run with them lately. Eating everything the barstards. Last trip was the first that they weren't everywhere. But they were on all the good spots for the trout.

    Re: most annoying fish?

    I'm going to disgust a few people here, but my pet hate is marlin, yes marlin. Too big, too fast and too tiring, and to top it I don't eat them. Luckily I have only run into a few smaller ones 70-100kgs, Hate to know what the big one will do.
    They knock your level of stamina around, take ages to come in , if they do that is and take precious fishing time out of your day. Sometime the load on the rod is too great and lifting it out of the holder is asking for trouble. So busting of and saving what you have left is the only choice.
    And they always manage to load up when u got a YFT out back.
    Humility is not a weather condition.
