The Iceman Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 What a great experience for you What boat did you go out on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightstalker Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Nice fish, well done. I was up there this time exactly last year... I know that cause some of my mates are on the same charter right now... couldnt make it this year cause of work. Look out next year but. I loved Swains and thought it was just a fantastic experience having the freedom to explore the reefs on dories. People knock it and reckon its overfished but not everyone got to fish those places when 'all the trout were 20 kilos' so enjoy it what its for. I'll be back next year with dreams of another big emperor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
