a nice gummy

Post by abzz » Sun Feb 09, 2014 10:01 pm

Hey guys
headed out for a surf sesh with my brother(Fishn104) over the weekend, first five hours was pretty dead resulting in one big eagle ray which had no tail.. looked like it had been chopped off ! :angry:
we did manage about 15 or so good size mullet which we were using for bait
so we decided to make a move, and boy was it a good one :thumbsup:
40 mins in my rod buckles and manged to land this nice gummy after it put up a great fight.
my arms were stuffed by the time we took a few snaps ( as you can see in the pic :-D ) lol
fish was soon after released
few hours later the crabs came marching in a we went marching out :bolt:
