Sunday at Somerset (Part Two )

[Shawn 66]

Morning All
Arrived at Somerset at the Gentlemens hour of 9 o'clock . Bloody raining . Only rained for about 10 minutes , then she let up . Had deployed the redclaw pots on Saturday afternoon , after work . Thought we might as well troll down to where the pots were soaking .
After about ten minutes one of the reels goes of it tits . Being in 12 metres of water the prospect of it being a snag were remote .After a brief fight we had this girl (pictured below ) in the livewell having a rest . The plan was to get a photo and send her on her way . To cut a long story short , pulled in the pots ( not a bad haul ) , went back the ramp to get a photo of the girl , then sent her swimming on her way. She was caught on six pound mono combined with the pictured spinner.RED claw 1.jpgSomerset P2.jpgSomerset p3.jpgSOMERSET P4.jpgSOMERSET P5.jpgThanks for reading

Thanks Dazza
Pretty pleased with the size . When I put the pots in the water temp. was 30 degrees . These lot come from the northern area of the dam , amongst standing timber.
