Not bad for a first fish, its about 50 times bigger than my first fish.

Broadbar?

Wed, 2007-07-25 08:55

Congratulations to the little fella Mitch.

Hard to tell from the pic but was it a little broadbar? Few spots on its tummy though, maybe a spotty.

Haha, you've got a true fisherman on your hands there Mitch.

Nice to get something a bit different for his first good fish, got the rest of his life to catch umpteen narrow bars.

Yes a porta loo is high on the wishlist for my next boat, particularly with a wife and two growing daughters. The bucket just doesn't cut it anymore.

Awesome

Wed, 2007-07-25 14:06

Not sure which one of you is more stoked. :)

As for you wife saying she wants a bigger boat, I'd take her up on that. I was a bit worried when you introduced me at Coral Bay and she said she wasn't sure if she wanted to shake my hand or punch me for the amount of time you spend on fishwrecked... I spose her theory is if you had a bigger boat you'd spend more time on that than on fishwrecked.. Life's full of tough choices.
