Went to the roper river, 12 mile, this morning to put some hours on the new motor. Only got one fish it went 1.05 metre. The photos not much chop but I was by myself and wanted to get her back in the water as quick as I could. She inhaled a B52 black and gold and I mean inhaled, actually had to get my hand and pliers done her mouth to recover the lure, it was behind gills. No blood and she swam a way OK. I sat there for about 20 minutes and smoked about 3 cigarettes. Just blown away still smiling.

Regards

Gagey

Good looking fish, well done,
Roper does it again
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!

Congrats on the solo fish, a bl..dy ripper. Always a great buzz when you get them swimming and they kick in your hand to tell you to let go. I think that's a better feeling than the capture. Well done.

G,day gents. I haven't been on for a while as relocated from down south and been busy. Anyway , here is a picture of my 115cm which took out the overall biggest barra at the recent May day 2016 comp on the Vic river at Timber creek. I think it will be a while (if ever) I beat this as my PB. Caught on a live mullet.
Cheers :drinking5:
