Tailor Tales

Well, finally cracked the tailor thing after a few previous unsuccessful sessions trying......

 

Went for a quick 45 minute fish this morning 5 minutes drive from my place, had 4 hits, 2 hook-ups and 1 fish landed.

 

49 cm tailor....given its my first, I guess its a PB!

 

On the BBQ for breaky, was deliceous.

Sha......not sure who was more surprised, the fish or me....my land based skills are best described as ordinary!!!

 

To say I am not the most photogenic bloke is probably an understatement!!!!!

Not too many have started off with a tailor that big! Was that bait or lures?
