Small hook equals big Fish!!

We thought it was a dreded Sambo at first but after a few hard runs this beauty popped to the surface with a 1/0 hoodlum stuck in the corner of its mouth.

Thanks for the day Hank and Phil.

Still recovering from all the drinks!!!

Great stuff.

Must be the day for it, Lee caught his Dhuie on the small hook he was using as a trailing hook. His fought a bit like a sambo as well had a few runs all the way to the top.

 

BTW Nice fish mate

 

Have a great day.
