He ended up 4th with 11 fish tagged,  believe the leader had 14 tags.   He is very happy with his performance, specially with that big one on Sunday!

Hi Bernie and Sandra. Excellent effort for those onboard. Good to hear you had a successful Gamex. I know a few boys who were keen to be onboard this year who are now kicking themselves. Love the blue, great pic. Conditions look awsome.

But he and the punter made the choice not to kill it to bring it in to be weighed.
