Question
Might be stupid question, but how come no one catches metro mulla's from boats? Is it because the sit too close to shore?

I think the first time this pic was uploaded the guy didnt actually claim out was his, I think he said a friend of a friend, and maybe something about it being caught on a handline?

Whopper
That is a big one
If you want to weigh a fish like that without big enough scales just take the fillets off weigh them individually and then weigh the frame and guts then it's just a bit of Maths and you gave your figure.

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.

Fairly old
Absolute beauty. From what I understand takes about 5 to 7 years to get to about a metre then their growth rate slows down Guessing 20/25 years old
Old fishermen never die they just smell that way.

Either is being a douchebag BJ,
Just like BIG TUNER, and retard99 have ever-so-finely demonstrated.
That electric scale thread (however unfortunately short it was), will go down as one of the funniest things in FW history, made even better by how defensive they both got, and retard99's final comment was not out of place in a day care sand pit. It was unfortunate it took him 3 days to think it up.

Sorry to ruin some of the fun, goodbye Scott, goodbye Big Tuna. Threatening me via PM because of your commercial sales will not get you anywhere.
