So you're good at literally everything then.....meppstas wrote: ↑Sat Sep 21, 2019 3:07 pmAlways hard to judge the size of a fish in a photo, here's a couple I caught back in my Snapper fishing day in 1973.
My ol' mate Billy (may he RIP) is holding them.. the one on the left went 13.7 kgs & the one on the right went 12.3 kgs..
Oh, they weren't taken on whiting gear either, snapper rods & overhead reels were the go in my boat fishing days when fishing for snapper..
There have been quite a few snapper taken on whiting gear for years, a lot of whiting fisho's in Sth Aust will use 12-15lb line or heavier for that very reason..
cheers
