slinkymalinky Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Just got a copy of the pic of the other snapper I caught during my North Coast trip in early May. Caught drifting over some of the awesome Coffs reefs, throwing 7" Gulps off a 7'6" Berkley Drop Shot rod, Stradic 4000 and 20lb Bionic braid. With the sun coming up, not another boat in sight, and this knobby-headed boy trying his hardest to reef me, it was an awesome morning and it's an awesome way to fish. Not a bad way to get my pb Snapper. Didn't weigh or measure it but at a guess I'd say 3 - 3.5kg. How happy do I look?? Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james7 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 That sure is a nice snapper Slinky. Definitely one to be proud of! He must have been a good fight. However, I'm a bit worried by that big bump on his head. Did you give him a whack on the noggin when landing him? Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamtime Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Looks like a definate prize fighter that has been beaten round the head, eyes and nose. Great looking fish, as I'm sure it tasted also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewgaffer Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Nice snapper Slinky !! By the look of the babbling on mouth in the pic that snapper would probably be good for a few comments on a radio talk back show Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
