  4. We copped the same courtkase,I was in the black and white tabs.If you were lucky enough to get passed the sharks down deep the seals would get you on the surface,it was very hard to land the gemmies or blue eye yesterday.One thing I found interesting did'nt see one mako all day, we only hooked bronzies.I would say that was a mako you saw free jumping on your way home. Cheers Mike

  7. Hi Seazar,when he finally hit the deck he still had some life in him.He kept kicking the bottom of one of the rod holders in the back corner of the boat which shredded his tail,we tried stopping him from damaging himself but he was just to big and strong. Cheers Mike

  9. 21 days till my grady white arrives.... cant wait

  10. On tuesday the 17th, two mates and I head off from Water st boat ramp at 9.00am heading south east to Browns. At 11am we arrived at the destination where we put out a spread. Within half hour of trolling we had a triple hookup! As i was driving the boat, Dale grabbed the Stella 18000, out of the triple hookup one spat the lure pretty quick,i knocked the boat into neutral and grabbed the Pelagic 50 Wide...Yes the Pelagic 50 wide! Not sure why but the braid failed and Dale lost his within a minute of the hookup. The pelagic was still screeming its head off and we had to turn the boat around and chase the fish as there was about only 50 metres of line left on the spool...We finally started getting line back on the spool and after 1 hour we could see the Leader and then we realised just how big this fish was! But he was not ready to come in yet, i couldnt turn its head to make any more ground on this fish..We could not reach the leader and the fish took off again and this was the battle for the next four hours till Dale finally managed to grab the leader and pass it to Ian, Dale did an excellent gaff shot with the first Gaff and Ian followed suit straight after. Then i dropped the reel and grabbed its tail and the 3 of us tried to lift it over the gunnels with no success, second attempt we struggled and just got it over and into the boat..Group Hugs and hi fives all round. With 15 knot northerly winds we headed off and arrived back at the RMYC at Cronulla within 2 hrs and 50 mins to get the fish weighed in. It caused quite a lot of commotion down there at the RMYC. The fish Measured in at 2.06m to the fork and 1.38m girth The official weight is 138.50kg The head is in a chest freezer awaiting a taxidermist, i cant wait till its on my wall...A HUGE thanks to Dale and Ian for their great boat handling skills under a great amount of pressure and for the awesome gaff shots. GREAT TEAM EFFORT Mike
