how common are they !!, Missus caught one also ten minutes later , maybe not quite as big but chewed through the handline
Yes Gladstone Chris . Biggest Blue to drop in my Fish box to date as they hardly get past the mesh barriers .
Another surprise or News for me today was being told by the Safety Police that one can only keep one Shovel Nose Shark and they are supposed to be top eating !!??.
And here I've even cussing each n every one I've caught to date as a pain in the butt.
Mind you do have a soft spot for them and always released with Kindness LOL.
With the Boyne Tannum Hookup here this weekend and the number of Boats on the water was bound to have been pulled over for a safety check ( good to see too).
Hook at least two or three most times here or where I fish mostly , notto mention Ray's n Bullsharks LOL.
Back to the Bluey , thought he was a Thready there at first for a tad ey.
Still nice feed for Missus , I , Kids n Grandkids midweek .
That's a big bluey .....
Chris
Give a man a fish & he will eat for a day !
Teach him how to fish
& he will sit in a boat - & drink beer all day!

That’s a horse Blue threadfin, would have been a handful on any gear. They are psychos and go harder than king threadfin. Don’t hear of many that big.
Old mate i visited in Rocky today told me his Missus caught a 94cm Grunter in one of the creeks he Fishes for Whiting some time back somewheres around Zilzie ??...
