A grade
Top fish, great colour's. Fish must have been knackered to lay there for the photo's like that. Did it release well or was it taken for the table(s).

Thought so
I figured that's why the pics were taken while he was all lit up (alive).
Great capture Jay.

Great fish Jay. Extremely jealous. A 35kg+ macky one month and a 40kg+ who the next . How did the two compare?

Well the mackie was caught
Well the mackie was caught on 50lb and the wahoo was caught on 130lb GT gear so it's hard to compare but I reckon the wahoo was more powerful and faster.

Eltaco, LPB's biggest wahoo
Eltaco,
LPB's biggest wahoo was caught some years ago and would have weighed in over 60kg when caught. When it was brought to dock after a whole day out it still tipped the scales at 59.4kg.
It was caught on a minnow and a stella 20000 trolling mind you, so it's a different category altogether and really shouldn't count.
Thia picture doesn't really do it justice, but if you can imagine 4 blokes standing side by side, or just the bloke on your left with the fish, that'll give you a better idea.
