tomahawk1999 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Excellent way to spend the day Jason. There's something very special about putting your kid onto his first of a species. Look's like conditions we're ideal, I can't wait to get better so I can get back out there myself. I'm starting to go a little at home! Cheer's Rod.

I'm not surprised at the 16cm one that was in his belly though, I caught a 63cm king last year on a 20cm long yakka... They'll try and fit anything in!
