Baby Tigers

Will try make this my last report for a single shark, looks like it's gonna be a good summer for the tigers so don't want to bore everyone with multiple reports.

Tonight makes 3 Tigers in 5 days with a mate landing the 3rd tonight, no photo's of the 3rd one just yet need to get them off him tomorrow. 

This little female was the second landed, poor thing couldn't even pull line against 5kg of drag. For the record I was using 200lb uncoated wire and fished no more than 5kg of drag, the exact same as was done for the near 3m tiger previously caught. 

All caught cockburn sound area.

Cheers

looks like it is shaping up to be a solid season alright!

If it bit you I'm surprised that's all that happened to your hand?!

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
