Hi Matt,

Epic GT on plastics gear mate.

That's the second big mumma I have seen come from the Tweed in a month by anglers casting plastics around.

Makes you think what you may raise on poppers eh???????

we had to get him in somehow only had 40lb leader on so we decided to lip gaff him. he swam off pretty good after a while of dragging him around the ocean.
yeah i have been working a bit i tried to give u a call but u must have a new number or something give me a call with your number 0448877558

cheers matt
