Queenfish vs Brucesta

the result of a angry Queenfish thrashing around while trying to unhook him, new rule is no barbs on hooks in my boat for lures!!!

i can tell you at the time it wasn't barbless, i had to push it the rest of the way through to make it so, needless to say all points on the popper were after that.

Mon, 2010-04-19 12:02

it came out very easy once the barb was crushed, quick bit of first aid and it was off to fish for the rest of the day but no real luck with 6 small squid and a couple of small 35cm sweetlip emperor

cutting trebles with sidecutter is not much fun for both parties involved. green queenies and esp cobia more so than macks make me stand back and wait for the antics to stop. dont fancy a hook in flesh.

You would fit in at a peircing convention at least, some people would pay good money for that.

ask kelvin8tor how stoked he was that i have a no barbs rule on my boat, 75cm of trout shaking around with a laser pro stuck to the palm of his hand at the montes hurt but not as much as it would have with barbs

A good rule to have mate

could be a new trend.

Mon, 2010-04-19 18:03

could be a new trend. replace the hook with a s/steel bar and then charge people for process. looks painful . you got some guts pushing it right through  but better than trying to pull it out
