hot Late arvo session *EDITED*

knocked off work this arvo and scooted up a creek in a mates boat for a few hours. Was great to be the deckie for once. It was touch and go to get in however we managed. I hookled and dropped a barra on the first troll run, POC dropped two on the next. Then a few stuck. We had a pretty hot session landing 7 barra, me 4 and POC 3. WE dropped probably the same. Highlight was definately POC's popper caught barra in daylight, first time i have seen it done. It wasnt a fluke either the fish were on, he managed another 3 MASSIVE hits on the popper in that session, unfortunately no hookups then. This one made up for it, i managed to get a few shots of the fish. Needless to say Paul was a pretty happy camper. Biggest fish were around the 80cm mark. Gotta love the Pilbara!

Cheers, sorry about the lack of photos this time, ill have to show paul how to use my SLR.

That third shot with the colour glistening on hit is a absolute fantastic shot. Why not blow it up and get a closer picture. You have lots off Megapix I am sure.
