Submitted by mitch on Tue, 2007-11-27 16:25.
caught this cobia at the onslow salt jetty on a foot long trevally while trying to entice the local 100kg queensland goper to have ANOTHER GO aqs he had already snatched a few fish at the boat actually pulling one of us over the side .im still laughing about the fish magnet getting pulled in
