Yeah Pete that's a flutemouth, quite a few of these turn up around Ningaloo reef here on the west coast.
Brandon Khoo:
I love those things - they're so cool. I've wanted to catch one for years and I finally got one at Jewell last year and then got this one in NC on a soft plastic. They're covered in slime though! ;D
Nathan Cefai:
Mate well done and great report from u also,good to see heaps of big fished raised but annoying that they didnt connect with your poppers,ill be there next month to have a crack,hopefully that 50kg will come to me agian!!!! ;)
The night fishing is always fun!!!
Sam Conacher:
as allway's Brandon a good read and some good fish, it's a shame the hit's from the monstrous fish did not hook up.
the fish which stripped over 100m in it's first run, I am just wondering........any idea what it was?
going and judging by the condition's of the sea in the background of the photo's, with out being rude and certainly no dis-respect, it look's to me like you had some nice good days. One thing i can assure you is that when me and Stan were there in New Cal, the weather and condition's we had (in my honest opinion and most probably in Stans opinion to) were much worse then that (judging by the photos). I think in fact i am sure we were all hoping for the weather and condition's to be like it is and was in what is seen on the photos.
Brandon Khoo:
We had sunshine for about 1.5 days out of six, Sam and on the last two days, the camera hardly came out due to the rain. I hope you didn't have worse than 30 to 40 knots and pouring rain. :D
