Just after people’s opinion on what they reckon this is!? Caught at the very end near the surf, we think half trout and something else?

Cheers :thumbsup:

Awesome catch mate. These fish totally intrigue me, it's **** like this that still makes this forum a great read at times.

can someone in the know explain to me what a sea run trout actually is?

ive read in an article somewhere that said Balcombe creek used to have trout in it in the upper reaches..
