Big Sambo off the beach!!!!!!

Was fishing around an hour north of perth last night. Caught this samson fish on a fresh fillet of herring was calling it for a mulloway was pretty shocked when i seen it hit the beach. Took around 20 minutes to release but finally got it to swim off.

GREAT EFFORT

Sun, 2011-02-13 22:45

Great effort man - and even better to have revived the fish and sent it on its way. Thats the type of thing that needs to be shown to counter the negative impact of those clowns killing the ray at Hamelin!
