Pre-ban dhu banger
Submitted by Noxious on Sun, 2016-10-16 19:29
G;day
Headed out for the last fish before the ban to chase some dhu fish. Mates took their boat out of Mindarie and got a call (about 7am) to say that had bagged out on dhu fish before I even got a line wet (including a nice fish at 10.6kg), now the pressure was on to produce. Morning started a bit slow with some choppy seas and just a few sharks. Ended up hooking up at about 1030am, didn't feel like much initially, but then took off on a couple nice runs, then up popped this dhu banger at 89cm (12.0kg).
Happy days. Put a few fillets in the freezer.

Thanks for the comments
Thanks for the comments guys. The fish was weighed on bathroom scales so I'm not so confident with the accuracy of the weight. Certainly felt like more than 12kg.
