Title: A hard earned fish at Tinaroo
Post by: Brett Guy on December 04, 2011, 08:50:19 AM

Conditions were certainly tough last night with one hookup between three yaks untill around 8ish when the other two yaks left and I decided to stay on solo. Another hour of persistance with improving conditions(SE easter backed off to nothing) saw a few boofs and one roll behind my lure and then finally a nice fish latched on and was eventually slid into the net. Unfortunately the only place I could get a self timer shot was a horrible mud bank so fish does not look too great. 107cm.

Nice fish Brett self timed shots aren't the easiest to get right but on a muddy bank at night even harder so you did well on both the photo and the fish. What did you get it on may I ask ? Cheers Pat.
