pb pinky

Couple of fish we caught on  thursday 18/8/11. My pb pinky of 96cm which bottomed out my 11kg scales when i got home. Caught on a 5inch snapback in 12metres of water. on 20lb, Went like a train.

We hooked another couple of suspected pinkies on the same location but the hooks pulled.

Marko (hookt) which came out for the ride also managed a nice queen snapper and a 60cm dhui.

 

Thanks
Justin

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.

That is a damned terrific fish. The 5" SnapBack still holds it's place as the #1 allround plastic IMO.

Great snapper in any depth. Absolute horse. Haven't seen too many bigger for quite a while.
