just a query, but when your fishing in a catch and release comp for billies, how do you get the weight, expecially when your talking 150kg+ fish, i can imagine things getting a little out of hand.

cheers

Girth

Tue, 2008-06-03 21:01

Just to show the girth on a relatively small fish.  Based upon what I saw hung and weighed at the fishing contest last week I think he'd go 45kg. 

Its interesting comparing photo's of the fish people claim are 45kg gts, or 30kg spaniards or 40kg sambo's or 45kg marlin.  I saw a 53kg yellowfin and 32 kg spaniard (both gilled and gutted) weighed in at Canarfin and its a pretty serious amount of fish!  (this isn't directed at anyone, just a general observation)

Jeez Milsey, posted a very similar post while I was typing. Your spot on mate, its a very dubios thing indeed!!!  Not sure about the comp side of things for Gamex or any of the other comps, haven't bothered doing it.

Great billy Adam - you should have used the old outstretched arms technique (would have looked bigger) - don't be so lazy next time Tongue out

She's a big one for sure. Great conditions aswell. See the face, she must be heavy on the lap?.

 Hey mate, looks awesome,

I got a tinnie with one of my mates, just wondering how far out you were? We dont really want to go too far for safety reasons. was this metro or north?
