jenno64 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Good on you brickman for letting the breeding machine go. After catching a 96cm model a couple of seasons ago I made a promise to let them go over 70cm too. Just lucky that I have snavelled a few between 60-68cm in the last season or two Cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew399 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Thats a nice looking flattie!! Good on you for letting her go, you just have to weigh up weather a full belly or catching them is more fun!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
