Solid trout this one, especially when you factor in the size of Deefa for scale. Did you guys get busted up much in the coral by these fellas?

Ockta branded jig to be

Ockta branded jig to be precise, and yes Jay- they went off. I wish i had've taken a few more out with me. A reasonable estimate of weight was given @ 12-13kg's, preety accurate i reckon. I was pretty stoked. Not an hour later, Josh upstaged that one with another that weighed in at 16.5kg's on stickbait out of about 3m's of water... Surprised. And John- yes, i did(can't speak for Rob) got busted up heaps... 'twas fun.

Very nice Fish

Good to see someone can get nice fish with a rod and reel, too many category one fish being speared.
