Bit of bad luck with the boat engine, on the positive it all lead to you catching that great fish. Well done mate.

Well done on the big girl mate, looks like you came out a winner on the motor as well.

"No angler watches nature in a passive way...He enters into its very existence." (John Bailey...Reflections on a Waters Edge)
"Govern a Family as you would catch a small fish....Very Gently." (Chinese Proverb)
"Only those become weary of angling who bring nothing to it but the idea of catching fish." (Rafael Sabatini...1857-1950)
I pray that one day God sends me a fish so big that, when talking of it...I have no reason to lie.

Good stuff, what a cracker fish, especially getting her in the boat after having a near miss.
