calvinching Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Thanks everyone. It is an on-the-way-home fish. Decided to check out the rocks after catching nothing previously at the lake. Armed with ecogear prawn ,10lb leader 4lb braid 3-6kg rod 2500 symetre,hooked this girl on the 3rd cast!Gave me a big fight and I thought I would have lost it for sure. I slowly bring her on the surface and she's landed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
