Here is a Northern Bluefin tuna i spun up on a 65g raider on the north coast of N.S.W. The fish was taken from a breakwall in the morning. I was using a 12ft rod and a shimano speedmaster egg beater reel.Fish took 50 mins to land.

In the words of yoda:
Hmmm..
Nice fish that is Yes
Big they grow..Hmmm..
Go Fishing I must...
Hear is my best kingfish to date.25kgs on 15kg line at the Tubes Jervis Bay N.S.W. I was using a live bonito as bait on 150lb trace.The fish took about 15 mins to land but it was an aggresive battle.
This is my Australian Record Mako off the stones.Also caught at the good old Tubes and on 15kg tackle.Took a live slimey and did plenty of tail dancing and jumping.
Here is a action shot of a myself fighting a large marlin at the Tubes. The fish was approx 120kg's on 15 kg line.The fish was lost after 2.45 hours at the gaff.What a let down. I captured a marlin in 1999 well over 100kg's but this fish was cut and released.
Here is a Smooth hammerhead shark i captured a few weeks ago at a place called Beecroft n.s.w. He took a live bonito.I use large tuna circle hooks for sharks so i can still use mono trace.
This is a shocka photo but the fish are cool.These to Mack tuna took one of my home made lures at the Tubes.They were both caught on 4 kg line.
Nice pics there mate......land based marlin captures must be the ultimate challenge to any fisho....good onya mate.
Cheers Brent

An old photo of a bluefin i caught down south of N.S.W. This fish fell victum to lure on 6kg line.
This my bait pool !!!These are live bonito and a live frigate! The pool is 6ft and i use a petrol pump to fill and maintain the pool.I have kept bonito alive for 3 days with this setup.
Hooked up to a 20kg Bluefin on the north coast.This fish took a live garfish. Unfortunatly my gaff man was wiped out by a wave and the fish was pushed into a whole in the breakwall.Due to the danger factor we snapped him off and got him out the next day.Didnt smell the best though and the fish wasnt photo material!!!
This another old photo of myself locked into battle with a big black marlin.This fish spooled me on 50lb line on a 50w reel holding a kilometer of line. It was all over in about 3 mins.
This a baby black marlin.i spun him up many years ago at the Eve's.I took a quick photo and let him go.
mumblemumblemumblemumblemumble,,,BASTARD, SHOWOFF!
