Failed Tuna Popping Session

[Luke Wyrsta]

Went hunting for some SBFT surface action off Kiama a month back but was slightly north of some supposed insane 40 - 60kg frothing action - can't win them all.

Took this home as a consolation - taken on bibbed minnow rigged with 8/0 Decoy JS-1 .

Is that a smile or are you in pain Luke   still looks like it would have been fun  .
You're still doing better than me, I had to use bait  for some Pearlies last week as nothing is jumping on the jigs.

[Luke Wyrsta]

Sh*tloads of pain 

[Travis Heaps]

Sh*tloads of pain 

    That's a nice SBFT!  How heavy did it go Luke?

[Scott Maybury]

Very nice consolation Luke!

[Sam Conacher]

what a barrel of a SBT and truly a great catch Luke.


another superb catch of yours.


I am not so sure but my honest guess would be between 50-65kg's,  possibly 65kg plus.

Good fish mate,solid effort and not bad for a berkley mungo bait diver
