Unexpected Samson Fish at Black Point

Unexpected Samson Fish at Black Point

 Took my other halfs sister (Carol) down to Black Point to try and get her a Salmon , well the Salmon didnt play the game but 25-30kg of Samson Fish did , 20 minutes to land , 8000 Saragosa filled with 8kg braid , pic doesnt do it justice , the tail is almost touching the ground , it's more of a grimace than a smile on her face as she was totally stuffed  , I loaded the fish into her arms for a quick pic before release , well done
