got 1 off two rocks

Thu, 2012-07-26 20:16

got a cracker one off two rocks last month, found it quite amusing as we only got ones about 10 cms long usually. must have been at least 35 cms weighed over a kilo. mate said it tasted pretty good, like a norwest snapper. that day we got a 80cm plus dhuie but that goat fish was the throphy.
