I tried to up the ante Dave but couldn't match your effort! I got out to the Goulburn last night for a few hours. Conditions weren't ideal with a cool wind blowing. I also left my lip grips at home. :oops:

This was the type of water I fished:

I got boofed by a really nice trout cod on the 6 inch cracker:

Hornet, in this pic you can clearly see the markings on the trout cod. Compare it to Dave's fish:

Didn't haul it out of the water as I was on a log and without grips, but the fish would have gone over 60 cm:

Picked up this trouty about 30 cm later and had one other boof that failed to hook up:

See you at the codference!

Good you got out Will, you can't complain about a 60+ Trout Cod, that's a nice fish, cheers davo :thumbsup:
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them
