Got a bit snappy last night.

 Launched the tub late yesterday arvo for a bit of a night fish. 

Caught this solid fish (was really thick across shoulders) on a 2-4 kilo stick 2500 stradic and 10lb braid was dangling a lucanas jig. 

Also lost a solid approx 15kilo yellow tail king at the side of the boat on 20lb.

Sheeart! That's a solid fish on that gear, was it sitting in the rod holder? The swell must imposed a good action, nice work

 40g gram lucanas or pirates, the kg's seem to like the brownie colour lucanas.
