I ALWAYS LOVE LOOKING AT PICS OF FISH THAT HAVE BEEN CAUGHT TORPHY PICS SO PUT THEM UP AND SHOW US WHAT YOUR MADE OF ...LIME LIGHT IS YOURS MAYBE JUMPY WIL GIVE A FREE HAT TO BIGGEST AND BEST STORY ON HOW AND ON WHAT IT WAS CAUGHT.AND WHERE ..CHEERS

Boring! haha, starting a new thread

Jumpy never rates fush by their shear size

He rates them based on the ability of the angler to land the fush on as light tackle as possible

Any fool can go out & catch big fush on rope then brag about it but I ask

Where's the SPORT in that ??????????????????????????

Ok, jumps, Ill Continue,

40cm Bream, 3kg Line, Off the beack/rocks near Honeymoon Bay JB..

how very true master, how ever we must make allowances for people not yet enlightened to the true path

may the plastic be with you

CATCH i will post my best fish when i catch one

Comon people, dont be boring, throw a few up... lets get some pictures of fish up on here... Pic threads are always good for a read!

here we go for all us amatures

This isn't my biggest snapper, but by the smile on my face i didn't care. Cant wait to get back down there.

My biggest fish has not have a pic to show you but it sits on my sunroom wall. It was a 169lb yellowfin tuna caught on 30lb line twenty odd years ago at the Tubes. It took 2and 3/4 hrs to land 3 gaffs to lift it out of the water at 7.30 pm in the dark, a boat watched the fight from start to finish and took it to Honeymoon bay for us to pick up as we could not carry it out up the cliff.

What makes it even more memorable is that the drag blew up after the first run so I had to jam my hand between the spool and the top cross plate of the reel. My fingers were a mess for weeks and so was my groin, NO rod bucket. Hard to believe I have at least 6 witnesses.

The best sport fish I have landed on light line with a pic is my 12kg Jew on 4kg line

Nice fish Arnie...

You could put a pic of the fish in your sunroom up! ;)

How do you find using these Lantens







:offtopic:

That big yellowfin and the other one which is holding you up, Steven, looks suspiciously identical to the ones your bro caught. Are you trying to pull someones leg? C'mon, fess up.

KK I thought you had retired you have been doing some serious investigating I see. Very good deduction my dear Holmes

Dave, that Photo of the Flathead is not counted, you can't catch them in the Laundry Tub.

Now let me tell you a story, One day as I was fishing for Cod in the river I just happened to catch the biggest fish I have ever seen, it ran me up and down the river bank a couple of times, I was just lucky that there was an old Mouldboard Plough in the bottom corner of the paddock so I tied my line to it, WELL I hung on tight and ploughed a couple of acres before I Pulled him up. He was So oo Big I couldn't fit him in the viewfinder so I kept the Head and took some pics of his mouth and as it just Happens called him Dave.
