PB Blackfish

Today I caught my PB Blackfish. It was 48cm long and it weighed 1.4kg gilled and gutted. I will get the weight verified at my local tackle store. I have photos but I have no idea how to post them.

I caught her on Susan Gilmore weed at a place called the short cut in the Port Stephens area near Hawks Nest. My main line was 12lb mono with 10lb floro carbon leader on size 6 damaki chemically sharpened hook fishing with a 10 foot leader (from stopper to bottom hook0

The fish was heavy to reel in and not much fight until it seen my ugly head with a landing net in hand. Then it was game on.

All up my mates and me caught 34 quality black fish. At the end we were tossing 30cm blackfish back.

I feel like a goose. I took my PB blackfish to my local tackle store this morning for him to weigh (requirement for out of competition best blackfish) . It weighed 1.06 kilos gilled and gutted. No where near that 1.4kg I said it weighed. I not sure how the scales I originally used can be so far out.

But at least the brag mat tells the truth it was 48cm long.
