Quobba Cobia

Post by Simon Gilbert » Tue Dec 16, 2014 7:03 pm

I received the following from a former? member. Membership aside - a fantastic capture from the rocks - especially considering the 'men in brown overcoats' at this spot (Garths Rock).

Certainly worth celebrating! Well done Bryan Fernandes

Hullo fellow fly-fishing & Quobba nuts

Thought I’d share this with you, since it’s so rare these days to get a good fish past the greycoats on a fly-rod at Quobba these days (also cos I’d like to brag about it a bit ).

Couldn’t get a weight on it but this guy went exactly 120cm (4 foot) – which is supposedly 20.9kg according to the SASAA Species Calculator, which seems to be the most conservative one I can find. My guess would have been more like 17kg. Who knows.......
