Day of a great surprise

[abiasin]

Hi All,

been a while since my last post as I have not had much time for a fish whilst modding my centre console. the plan for the day was simply to but the boat in the water and see how some the boat performed after some bait tanks and other additions were but in.

to cut a long story short a mate and I decided to have a flick with some plastics to see if we could rustle a feed of lizards and up came this big mumma amoungst a host of smaller models. before anyone starts to get all crazy, the fish was released to fight another day!

hope you like the pics.

That's a lovely big lizard, were there a few around the 40-50cm size too ???, they should start to come on a bit more now.

Congrats mate..

Stonker croc. She is so plump too. Good to see her swim away too. Excellent work.
