Spoont Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Just been on the phone with Mike (Fishbones). He has just weighed a bluefin which took 4.5hrs and went 137.5 kg and measured 2.6m to the fork!!! Based on the length/weight chart, for a fleeting moment we thought it may get to 150 or even nudge the national record for 24kg. I will let Mike tell the rest as soon as he has cleaned up. Congrats mate, FISH OF A LIFETIME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erroll Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Wow, that's a beast. I hope the freezer is just as big. Well done. I was thinking that the sbt might have retreated by now. That's encouraging if they are still around. Congrats. Errol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy454 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Well done,heard some of the chatter on 21 and knew someone was having a lot of fun! A little bit on the messy side out to and past browns for us in a 6mtr so we started the run back in at 2pm. Tried a bottom bash also but that was near to impossible so homeward bound we went. Looking forward to hearing the full report. Paddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisecraft Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Yes, mike rang me just after 6pm all excited and I went over to the RMYC on Woolooware Rd and had a sticky beak at the beast in the boat. The fish was in the boat and it was HUGE!!!!. I took photos with the Iphone and then Mike said he was not so good at uploading pictures, so I went home and got the SLR and went to his house later on and these are the pics. Enjoy the pics and well done Fishbones Mike. Regards Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
