True that one I got at White was over 30 and I thought at the time it would be a hard one to beat. When you do as many trips as I do you do tend to fall over the odd good one

Great fish no wonder he has it laid on the bait table after that struggle.
If I'm not taking photos I'm fishing. If I'm not fishing I'm taking photos, either way I'm having fun.

That is one nice looking fish there WinkWink
Did you get the massive splash on the water when it smashed your lure .It is such a rush when you can see them take the  lure well done
Crank that smoker up and lets get cooking
