first thought was shark

Used the new tiagra 50wlrsa loaded with 37kg so wasn't a long fight, running 11kg of drag. set for marlin but rough west side of Exy and ended up at the reef.

Start on team two tom so that could be a little dangerous same shift.

The photo

Tue, 2008-01-29 21:23

The lovely wife took the photo on her new chrissy prezzy. Did come up well with the colours for one of those little pocket cameras though it is 8 meg.

The fish I guess is about as you blokes guessed but my scales only go to 15kg. Had to lean it up against my chest so no holding out in front for the blow up as it was a little green.

cheers for the comments crew

Wishin I was fishin!!
