earlier this year
caught this earlier this year but thought i might share.
Went fishing for pinkies at black rock in rough conditions, hadn't caught much then my rod screamed off. thought it was a snapper at the start then i saw it surface and jump and saw how big of a salmon it was. After 15min of fighting got it in the boat.
Turned out to be my pb salmon. 2.2kg and 60cm
Regards
Matthew

Re: earlier this year
I reckon they fight well above their weight 2.2 is a great fish for the bay if they only tasted like flathead. Well done

Re: earlier this year
To be dead honest, I'm really glad they don't serve up that well. Could you imagine if they did..?..how many do you think would be left now..?mattsoccerfish wrote:yeah they fight very well that big, its a shame they don't taste nice.
