Catch and Release Spangled Emperor

My lovely wifes first spangled emperor she has caught, unfortunately it was just under legal so she didn't get to taste her catch, although we had more than enough for a decent feed for the day anyway.

I've just managed to get her to bait her own hooks, next I'll start working on her to clean and fillet them while I sit back with a cold one.
