tailwalk Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Caught this queenfish @ 115cm land based in Darwin Harbour with a lure that was given away with a magazine (not sure if it was modern fishing or the competitor) big 'ol green popper first cast after switching from a hard body diver free lure which made it even sweeter.

tailwalk Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 Thanks guys for the welcome, was up there working for a few weeks. (fishing guide) They are pretty common but all the locals think that the harbour is fished out!!! I guess right place and right presentation always gets you home. Was fishing 20lbs braid good fight of @ 10 min lot of structure around. (as you can see) Cheers, Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuffy Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) Welcome, Tailwalk. But - - the problem you now have is that every catch you report from hereon has to be bigger than this one. I think there is a ruling on this somewhere isn't there?? Cheers Tuffy Edited April 10, 2008 by Tuffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
