 Absolute horse smashed it well done mate , ( mythbuster ) we were out that way wednesday as well for not a whole lot  and I was using the almanac as a excuse  

That last pic really puts it's size in prospective along side the BB's and Snapper  , excellent congratulations

Wednesday

Fri, 2017-04-07 11:22

 I worked my butt off on Wednesday from 4:30AM to around 11AM with absolutely no luck other than finding a school of big fat sweep and a few McCulloch's Scalyfin. Nothing touching the big baits. Couldn't even catch wrasse

Weather was beautiful out there though - came back in at around 40knots from 25-30kms West of Point Peron. About 3 or 4 boats out where I was, which was amazing for that far out.

So you weren't the only one catching nothing.

No clue how you'd get that thing up on 20lb, I was catching pups on that gear and they pulled bloody hard.

 Fantastic dhu for around rotto. Did you measure the overall length? Just wondering how long a 20kg dhu is.

Yeah livewire if u click on the the 2 little squares underneath the photo u can see it layed out next to a tape measure.about 106cm.
And Chris Raff we caught dhuie and pinkie within minutes of each other just before 9am ,which seemed to be in between the feed times going by the almanac.
