fragmeister Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Great catch fella. I can image how happy that PB would have made you. You're a quick learner... or was that just quality of the advice from the seasoned luderick fisherman? Either way well done to you and the rest of team "fish raider".

mrsswordfisherman Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Gianni you are an excellent and keen learner and have been rewarded for for your persistence! Love the pic and the fact you always wear your raider hat! Submit that fish, I think it might be a 3rd place at least mrsswordfisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VBCB Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Haha good to read this we can sense your excitement young lad! Hopefully it won't be the fish of a lifetime for you That's a nice one regardless, and it was really healthy by the look of things, well done!

thefisherman6784 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 Thanks T.C It was a very healthy, fat fish that clearly came from the ocean rocks Couldn't even fit on the largest chopping board we had Cheers thefisherman6784 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchie Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 You are on fire! I just looked at cotm and you also caught a PB bream recently. I hope your homework is up to date young man. I think your sneaking in too much fishing! Lol..... Only joking, there's always time to cast a line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsswordfisherman Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 There is another part of this story that I need to share About 30 mins ago Gianni messaged me - "OMG OMG my 4 year old sister got onto the internet on my ipad beside me and when I looked down it said POST DELETED, is there anyway to get it back????" Of course I was able to restore it but I am quite sure Gianni was yelling at his sister and in a panic can you just imagine the scene there raiders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefisherman6784 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 I just was in shock Didn't yell just took the iPad and looked at every button on the device to get it back... Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Howes Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Gianne that is a stud blackfish, quite an exceptional catch and the harbour produces these some times. The adrenalin rush, when you get one like this on a light line is what most blackfishermen are after. It will take you years to better that beast. The best thing is to enjoy the fight and not skull it in till you have taken the fight out of him. I was silly enough to fish in that howling wind today at Chiswick (1.00 pm to 5.00 pm) with fellow fishraider Poohbear, landing a couple around the 32 cm. This is the first time I have nearly been blown off the stone wall by wind gusts at the ferry wharf. Howsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luderick Hunter Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Great Luddy mate, they dont come much better than that in NSW, I got a 47cm and my brother got a 48.5 in Tuross lake a couple of weeks back. I got a 45cm that went 1.7kg in Durras lake a couple of years ago too. In queensland the big ones are more common, Someone got one at 54cm off the Caloundra boardwalk in August this year and a typical fish there is mid to high 40s. Well done on a stonker. John.

Thanks mate It was awesome fun on the light line and definitely soaked all the fight out of him With 6lb leader too, it was awesome Cheers Gianni Great Luddy mate, they dont come much better than that in NSW, I got a 47cm and my brother got a 48.5 in Tuross lake a couple of weeks back.

Thanks mate There great fish you've gotten over the years If that's almost an average fish for Queensland, I can't imagine the fight if one close to 60 Cheers Gianni Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
