madasacutsnake Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 That's it. I'm coming to the big smoke! Gotta get one. Awesome fish. Nice work and nice pics. My new boat came in this week and I would be keen for the social but......motor is still in the U.S. and about 4 weeks away! So when is the next hairtail night? Can you catch em down here? Maybe the Shoalhaven? I 've never seen one cuaght but I think I saw one in the paper about 10 years ago washed up dead, but this thing was massive. not sure how big they get. stallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevvie Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Nice bloody fish mate.... they are the most aggressive eel lookalike i've seen. were you in the cowan system? I have heard of em being caught in the main arm but obviously not as regularly.... I'm bloody glad they still are around, people like me have still got opportunities to pop thier cherry on one yet. Maybe a big season this year? Whatdoyareckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inhlanzi Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 (edited) Hey kevvie Sorry missed your your reply there on the 9th. I have got all of them in the main body ie past juno and refuge in the holes in the channel towards lion. I am by no means an expert on these awsome fish but from what I have learned I reckon another 2 degrees lower and they will be up and into the system. Gees they eat well too... I hope there will be a lot of cherry poppin on the weekend! I have got all of them as a by catch to the ever elusive big jews so as I say no expert by they are there. cheers inhlanzi Edited June 11, 2006 by inhlanzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
