Coral Trout off Exmouth

Coral Trout off Exmouth

 I caught this at Exmouth last week on 18lb, using a 5inch Z-man sot plastic and my 5000 biomaster. He put up a good fight and was 66cm in length. This was out off Bundegi.

Research

 I was up there doing some honours research on the Lambis chiragra. We had the tinnie up there on the last day dropped a line in the morning. We landed a spango, rankin and the trout before 11am and then it was back in the water for some more reasearch before the long drive back to Perth.
