PB Pinkie
Submitted by hlokk on Tue, 2008-07-29 18:57
Caught last Monday (21st) with pgreen1 and shabba on a drift baited mulie. Fish was just over 60cm and just under 3kg. Not massive, that makes it easier to get another PB fish later :p. We all called it for a dhuie though as it wasnt doing any headshaking.
Nothing size caught on boat all arvo except one size pinkie (two pinkies were undersize by an agonising half a cm), but the fish turned on at sunset with 2 pinkies and a queen snapper being landed.

Nah!
Lets get this straight.
No dig at all, what so ever!
Words of encouragement only, and I'm sure Mat would've taken it that way.
Sorry I didnt ask for your approval before I posted.

Well, the first bit.... hehe :p I think it was clear the intention of your post was good.
Besides, I dont really let any stuff on this forum get to heart (in case anyone thinks I was getting upset and complaining to admins in the background before
)

I was pretty happy with
I was pretty happy with that, seeing as its my favourite eating fish, caught on my 'lighter' driftbait combo and about double the weight of my previous one.
The fish had a fresh octopus leg in its mouth as well as a cray leg, and it took a mulie, so it was really in the mood for a bit of variety that day :p
