MickyDav might look dead, but believe me it swam off to live another day and scared the crap outta me when it was released in knee deep water and turned back at me , sorry didnt take pics of it leaving , was too busy trying to not get bitten .

I have too much respect for these creatures to kill em and leave em ,

caught enough tailor and herring for a feed , once eski was full remainder were used as bait or set free.

 

Im not a lier if I say it swam away why would i lie about it .

Nasty bits of gear

Have caught heaps of them and they can be real nasty bits of gear, second only to bull sharks when you get them on the deck.
