River giant herring
Submitted by Cardinal on Wed, 2012-12-12 11:46
Me mate just got back flatty fishing the swan and was amazed to see a picture with him in it with a 50+cm giant herring. Hooking up to several but only landing the one. Big flattys, solid bream, schools of healthy tailor everywhere and now giant herring. Who said the river was unhealthy?

Looking forward to tossing lures about in the Swan. One month to go.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

No Doubt
Very little doubt I'd say. Plenty of prawns and worms live in the river and I'd say they would smash it quick smart.

An 80cm dusky would be about
An 80cm dusky would be about half that weight sorry I usually dont get involved in the whole weight game thing but that estimation is way out! Try seaweed, or a halco twisty in the head ;)
