Guest fishrunner Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Went out botany day today for a flick,. Things started well with a few bream, 25- 30cm . A few flathead round the 35cm, missed a beauty of about 65cm which did my leader 3 mtrs from the boat. Stuck with 6 lb as I was getting hits pretty often and didn't want to upset the balance. All of a sudden things started to change when I got a 46 cm beauty which put up a good fight in 2 ft of water above all the oyster bars got him in lost another same size 6 ft from the side of the boat. . Got busted up by a few , though it was all fun. timer photo's, oh well, elbow slapper couple of the "others". underwater in the tank All in all a good day.

mottyman Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hi Fishrunner, That 46er is a stonker. Looks like some net damage along the back there as well Great report and the pics turned out well for being on the timer. I like the "elbow slapper"!! Cheers, David.

Flattieman Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 (edited) Great report, great fish!!! Well done! 46cm is a beautiful bream. I'm envious. Pity about the flattie though. What a strange head on the bream! Any ideas about that? Flattieman. Edited April 4, 2006 by Flattieman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a strange head on the bream! Any ideas about that? Flattieman. Have to agree with mottyman ,- most likely net damage. Outdoordan the smaller bream round 30 cm were on 3 inch minnows and power hawg was the undoing of the big one. they also accounted for most hits from the larger models that did me cheers Edited April 4, 2006 by fishrunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharky Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Top bream. Oyster rack fishing is heart thumping stuff and to pull a monster like that from structure is amazing. Its a shame they have discontinued the hawgs dam fin plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fishrunner Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 G'day Stillrockn , Lure was 3 inch hawg in pearl blue. Goodluck, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sputnik Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) That's a simply sensational fish - one that anyone should be proud of. Well done, Mr. Fishrunner! Shame you didn't get the other one to the boat. There's many a fisherman who'd give his casting arm to get a fish like that in a tournament... Congratulations. P.S. I love the "elbowslapper" photo - no one could ever doubt the size of a fish based on that! Edited April 5, 2006 by Sputnik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitto Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Nice Horse! Great day out Fishrunner We didn't set any records, but loads of slimies and squid sure kept us amused ... 6lb is also NBG for Kingfish, but that's fishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
