Hi all,

- My PB Dhuie, 14Kg on the scale
- Probably my PB Dollie, didn't measure it though, but felt the biggest
.... got him on heavy gear (Accurate) as I lost my light combo overboard (CI4 and G-loomis
) earlier
- Andy's beauty ...
- Stripy on light stuff ... Luvias 2000, Tierra and Waxwing
- Andy's YFT on light gear ... noodle rod was going nuts!!
- Eric's Black Tip on PE1 gear ...

- Eric's Sambo on PE 2 (if I remeber correctly ...
)

Cheers guys, and well done boyz

Nice pics
But why are you smiling??
I would have a tear in my eye and a nasty mood if I lost a quality combo. I was mad enough to dive overboard in shark invested waters off dampier to retrieve my T curve lacanus Jig rod and saragosa 8000 that was knocked out of the holder. Lucky I saw it!
I would be ropeable if I lost my latest fav combo samarai Jig10 and Stella 8000SW OB. Its like loosing your best friend for what I do.
But then its only money and nice to see that fishing goes on.
Nice days on the briney.

You're right there, but I
You're right there, but I wouldve cried if the fish were not hammering. Plus, this wasn't my fav combo, at least I've got an excuse now to go buy my fav one
Probably will go with a Luvias 3000 on another Gloomis (loved this rod), and PE1

Ah
Now I am worried that it was "tossed" overboard. Dont tell the Mrs, but I hated my light slice flicker for tuna up here, wanted a better rod than I had, and hated the Okuma V system 2000 size reel with a passion. On a solo trip it sort off fell overboard, and replaced with Quality. Now have a Berkley Drp shot pro and a Sustain. Haha

Tell me about it .... It was
Tell me about it .... It was around the Furuno fad!!! What pissed me off was that the rod was brand new, and also that I had to fish the whole day with the heavy combo ... Oh well, lesson learnt ... never leave ur rod in the snapper rod holder while resetting the drift, unless you're gonna strap it

some nice fish there guys -
some nice fish there guys - might have to try the waxwing myself
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.

Certainly worth having a
Certainly worth having a couple of each size in your tackle box, the 88 (Jr), and 118 (Boy) ... But I'm getting the bigger ones from overseas, as I couldn't find them locally, the 138 (Sr).
