kfish01 Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Went out with soapie (nick) this morning to cast a few plastics in botany. Drifting along the runway we started to get into some trevors, some good ones were landed and some better than average ones as well. During the trevor mahem that we got into,i got a hit that was better than average, to my surprise a 40cm snapper the only snapper i have caught that was jumping to the boat, up its a#@se was a king mouth open wanting breakfast. A good ten min later i hooked up to what i thought was that king, using 4lb mono i was loosing line pretty fast, with nick chasing the fish with the leccy,i started gaining line and soon we had colour. When the fish was boat side we were both alittle stunned, with nick slipping the net under it, it was one of the biggest trevors i have caught let alone seen. All in all a great mornings session with a tally of 16 trevors 2 bream 1 snapper and 1 flatty. Great work with the net nick
Guest Jocool Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Nice going...Great Trevor! Quick question....You think Trev's go as hard as Kings that are the same size??
Guest bluecod Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Yep! That's a good blurter - sounds like you boys had a good day out
soapie Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 A great session on a great day. The treva was a beauty ! Sorry Mick I know your more excited about the reddie Jocool, I reckon a treva would pull a kingie backwards !! Nick
Guest bluecod Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Jocool, I reckon a treva would pull a kingie backwards !! 45308[/snapback] Ohh Gawd! dont start him on another species, he's only just coming to terms with kingies

spizza Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Well done Mick, that is a ripper trev! At 60cm, I can imagine that thing had some pull to it....... Well done mate..... Spizza (in Toukley)
Narralakes Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Thats a terrific session, gooooooooooooooooood fish!
Martin Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 Great report and some top photos. Must have been a good kingfish to want to make breakfast of that snapper. Not often you get tio see a trev that big, so you should be feeling pretty satisfied. Got a question What does every one think of the eating quality of Trevs
kfish01 Posted May 3, 2005 Author Posted May 3, 2005 Martin i got some fillets in the pan now ill let u know in a little while .
