Insane Cairns GT session
October 09, 2007, 03:48:17 PM
Went for a solo run out today to throw some lures around. 

Glad I did 'cause the place was going off! 

Ended up with 16 GT's, mostly on Carpenter stickbaits and one Red Bass.  Smallest GT was just over 10kg, biggest around 20, maybe a bit more. 

here's a few pics

I was playing a decent trev to the boat when the hooks pulled and two of his mates zoomed in.  Both hooked up on the stick at the same time.  This is the result!

Haha, keep guessing Steve.

Randy I took the pics by putting the camera on the console and using the timer function.  Really not that difficult.
The big one peeled plenty of string and I reckon took about 15 minutes or so.  Was using PE6 on a Stella 8000HG.

Well done Stephen. Good fish.
I reckon that lures look great when shiney and new, but look so much better after they have caught fish.
That Carpenter has sure earned some "bragging rights".

damn it - I can't see a damn thing because of some bug in my profile where I can'ty view some types of photographs
Stephen, if you caught a big black GT, I"m very jealous!
If it swims; I want to catch it!
