Re: Making up for lost time
Thanks mate. You never know what you might catch in WP - that's why I like it. The toothy guy is a barracouta (aka bait), the small shark is a cat shark, the little fella is a bearded cod, and the big flat thing with the pink nose is a Melbourne skate.Hammy Y wrote:Great report, one of the best I've seen! And congrats on your thesis mate!
I have to ask? Bar the flatty and the banjos what were all those other fish you caught in WP at night? Strange looking creatures for sure
Cheers

Haha thanks Gra. It is about time I caught a decent reddie, my 10cm PB is a little sad.Texas wrote:Great stuff Pat,
4 years of studying while fishing, who said life wasn't meant to be easy :tongue:
I have trouble writing a letter, let alone 200 pages
You certainly deserve accolades :super: :super:
Get on to (uncle) Dave and get that big reddie
Cheers Gra

That just leaves that flat thing with the big head? Also I thought that cat was a 7giller when I first saw it.Broomstick wrote:Thanks mate.

Re: Making up for lost time
Still remember the first one I caught. Line burning off to the right, Ray getting airborne way off to the left. I was so confused.
