How good is Perth Metro

Post by Craig Radford » Sun Jun 24, 2018 3:48 pm

Got this one with Adam on Friday arvo. He had a crack at a little snapper but he didn’t reckon on me being locked and loaded.
10 wt One, 10 kg tippet in 9 m of water. 1200 long and 20 plus kg.
20 mins of rod bending with some 100 m runs from the anchored boat.
Pretty pleased with it.

Not really. When Adam is home from Tassie we get a bit done, just don’t say much about it.
This was a pretty good fish though.

Nice work Noddy.
I've hooked smaller sambos on fly , always seem to get smoked back
to structure.
Where you fishing crazy deep like when you target the Dhu's ?

9 metres Mike. All that good living paid off. Don’t worry. I’ve lost more that a few over the years.
Morsie and I landed about 50% of the fish we hooked at the Abrolhos in 2006. They were beasts to 45 kg in nasty county 5-20 m
