That is a great fish

That is a great fish mate!

don't take this the wrong way, but it is better for releasing the fish if you don't have your hands near the gills, they are very sensitive and it can be detrimental to the fish.

Ive handled GT's like that

Tue, 2007-10-09 14:59

Ive handled GT's like that before because they are so tough and also love to thrash around when holding them like mackies and there as sharp as mackies as well but i dont recomend this way but whe i have had to do it they do still swim off strongly and i only hope the survived OK which being as tough as they are im sure there right. Good not to do it though.

Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!

Yeah I don't like to mention

Yeah I don't like to mention it,  probably wouldn't do any damage to that fish, but other fish held like that could be different.

Again awesome fish, on the stickbait again?

Thanks fellas, yeah stickbaits again.  I still can't believe how hungry the fish were.   Would go down in my top 5 fishing trips.  Tried some poppers as well but couldn't get a bite.
