Friday night Landbased Pinkie

Scored this nice pinky last night, bang on 5kg gilled and gutted

 

Looked small coming up so i didnt bother with the gaff, then i grabbed the leader and tried to haul it up and it grew..

 

Half way up im thinking this is a bad idea but my knots and rig held up to the punishment and was safely landed.

 

Sorry about dodgy cropping but i dont wanna go back in the coming weeks and not be able to get a spot..

 

Had a couple of other bites but no hookups, was a bit of a surprise anyway.
