swan river fishing

so im not gonna say where i heard this from, and not sure if its all true. but i have had some people tell me that a 39kg long tail tuna was caught of e shed sometime this week by a guy chuking out lures for bonito.

 

but now to the bigger news. i also have heard about some guys who have done 9 nights in the river with balloons. having 16 runs and landing 3 bull sharks to 2.1m long. fairly far up the river to. i for one am hitting up the place they told me for sure to try get some bullies, so for those of you who love catching sharks, have a go in the river :D.

thats what i was thinking but

thats what i was thinking but the guys who told me said it was a close friend of theirs. they were on south mole and just lost some sort of a shark and called him up saying come to them and he said he just landed a huge tuna, then at his house they weighed it at 39kg. like i said not sure if its true or not, but i do know there was alot of bontio in there recently :/

 The only thing is longtails usually have yellow fins this one doesn't might just be the angle.  Either way a cracking LBG fish to Linley.

Heaps of bait in that area snd with bonito at north mole not to surprised there are a few big tuna lurking.  Let's see if some can get an e shed spaniard lol
