This years target : NT Barra

My old mans catch from 2010, last years biggest [2011] on the boat went 94cm.
This horse came from the mouth of tommycut right in the opening not a good time to find out the size of your landing net, with 6 boats doing the oval laps in a nice orderly line, all boats were having hookups on all sizes of fish . He still thinks it was the good fisherman that caught the fish and I keep letting him know it was the good skipper that put him onto it

.We will be at it again this year early march for me to beat his fish [hopefully, wishfull thinking, maybe] and I cant wait to be even trying.
I just worked out how to post and add photos I think, instead of just reading the great stories and comraderie.

cheers

Scott

The sticker on the boat was only 120 and at a guess on the extra length over the sticker it was approx 125-128, no brag matt that year but this year for my fish

large brag matt

Hey dude! You wouldnt happen to be the scott that used to come fishing with me and risky about ten years ago? You arsed that metery in shoal bay just before you left town if I recall correctly? :-)

Hooked -up boat hire- we hired that same boat for 1 measly 60cm! Awesome fish mate- hard to beat.

Gday Scottmac I am one and the same person, It is good to hear that you are still up there hammering the fish. are you still playing with sparking wires? I did hear Risky was still chasing the fish in the little howard. What is with arsed the metery I thought everyone used 6kg line to catch them after they have dragged the line through the snags allthough the boat skipper and netman did a superb job to help get the big girl, it is a bit hard to pull a metery into a rate of knots of outgoing tide on 6kg mono.Seano I cant recomend Hooked Up enough when fish like that come into the boat, it is nice to see the fish with top billings on their website, We hire one each year in march for 9 days of solid run off fishin, average 5 fish per day 50-80 cm, cant wait for March to come around and I look forward to the reports from shady after it opens tomorrow.

Now your thinkin mud. :idea:

We could hang out the front there for a week and roll any unsuspecting angler that lands a metery. :hunting:

We could get the photo with it and finally go into competition with Moonie and the amound of big fish he has been getting of late :fu:

sorry guys this fish on 30lb braid,

metery that scottmac asked about I caught ten years ago up the little howard on 6kg mono. Mud I would gladly let you hold my fish that I hope is waiting for me at the mouth of tommycut or sampan or marsh or some creek or

bugger might have to keep searchin

keep an eye out for the Hooked Up boat from the 8th to the 17th holding a big baz if you blokes have not found it already.
metery magic to all this runoff.

cheers
Scott
