67 is a cracking fish, loving the light tackle approach. Good stuff.

ive left my good stuff in the cupboards at home, got to get it out soon, but the problem is nobody that fishes with me have half a fucken idea how to use it. so its no point in me bringing it.

Great report and photos!

I had a very similar experience while fishing LB at Blairgowrie the other week with the Salmon. All were around mid 50s to 60's and I was using a NS Black Hole bream rod with a 2504 Luvias, definitely undergunned but amazing fun when they test the limits!

Yep im all for testing limits on these sorta fish.
I also had my bream gear 2-4kg rod and 2004 reel. The rod though is a beast so I had some advantage...
