  • 1 and 3/4 hours

    Fished both Friday and Saturday at Mooloolaba last weekend.

    Friday: Real nice fish, measured short length 2 mtr which conservatively put him at 75kg, fight time 1 3/4 hours on 8kg.
    I used every trick in the book but he toughed it out before we finally got a tag in.
    My wife Kel did not come out who is our official photographer so no shots, and my other crew members cameras both had flat batteries (unbelievable who brings their camera out Marlin fishing with a flat battery not just one person but two).

    Saturday: Had an unusually bad day for hook-ups 3 strikes one Sail and 2 Marlin (one normal size and one of the little tiny guys that are around at the moment) all failed to connect after solid strikes.

            Top effort Stephen. Were you out wide in the blue water? You would have had some nice conditions out there.

            Cheers

              Dear Animal!!

              Maaaaate!!

              The camera is the first item that needs to go into the boat. It doesn't matter what you do after that, because you can have a record on film(So to Speak)

              Great Fish but a missed opportunity to hang the photo on the wall.

                hi Stephen
                Sounds like things might be picking up a bit. If you don't mind me asking where was all the action?
