Queenfish on fly

[Ben Hall]

Wow these guys put up a spectacular fight, this fish jumped out the water about 6 times with the fish well clear of the water, caught on my 8wt on Clouser I tied myself.

That would have been fun on an 8 weight. 
Another great fish mate.

Hi Ben, Thanks for the report and congrats on the Queenie on Fly. Can you tell me what colour(s) you tied your Clouser please? and does it matter what colour

Thanks Hoods

Hey mate, pretty sure it was just white with a white eye,  or white with a red eye.

Thank you.

Beautiful looking fish - looks like a big slab of chrome. Sounds like the aerial show would have been awesome! Well done mate!

i fish Weipa each year and we catch plenty of queenies. They love white clousers. We’ve found that  up there the fish like most colours as long as they’re white ha!

Thanks Fil,

We fished Weipa in early October last year. Caught some nice Queenies but not on fly. I will take all the white flies next year.

Thanks, Hoods

Terrific Ben, a Queenie on fly = excellent. There some mighty consistent clousers - well done.
