Haha - yeah he sure was Colin.

He finally lost his 'Bugger All Bucks' title after this trip - top effort especially since he called it initially for a cuttlefish or something - haha

Yeah was one unlucky red thats for sure,

Bucks and Jay tangled up - They took their time untangling cos of Bucks' call for a crap fish. Finally Bucks got a bit agitated and sped the process up just in case - prob 10 mins in total and then this surfaced with the hook just sitting in the soft part of the gill cover membrane - hook came out before net was even fully under fish.

At that point we knew it would win biggest red - haha
