PB Dhuey!

Went out from Two rocks early saturday (after an hour wait at the ramps!) and headed a fair way out.  Got to our spot, worked out the drift and then had our first drop.  Within 5mins i had landed a 1000mm 17kg Dhu fish 

After that it went pretty quite so we tried a few different spots here and there, didn't get to much else unfortunatly but didnt matter as i still had a smile from ear to ear.

please dont hate me for this or others get there back up but i dont or never have understood the fingers in the eye hold, i just think a picture looks a million times better cradling a fish or holding by the gills. once again just an opinion

 Couldnt agree with you more, was a rookie mistake and a bad habbit of mine. I was so excited i just wanted a picture quick in case something happened.  Plus she was still flapping about to much so got a good hold of her.  But yes i do agree a picture looks much better with no fingers in the eye.
