We have a claim for the 95/96 Trevally Pin, people.
Phats despite his nasty Abu drag squawking like a chook gettin its neck wrung, somehow managed to boat a very fine 3.6kg (7.94 lbs for those illiterates who were edumacated at Puhinui Primary School) Trevally.
Well done Phats (he was fishing on the bad ship Miss Behave on Sunday near Little Barrier under the kindly mentorship of Bushie and myself. No wonder he did well.)

Ughh

Good puku shot

Where were you edumacated Fearless Leader?

Yeah Good....nice....lovely jubbly
I would like to thank God, My mum, Bender and most of all Bushpig
The man set out to get me my PB, and he did, I think its not quite what he had in mind, But Im a happy camper.
Take the pizz out of my Abu's all you want....I still cast a jig twice as far as you

Hey Big Boy.... Stop talking about "My Thing" Like you know it personally will ya, you're giving me a complex....
10 Pounders are quite common around here, It even looks like 20 pounders are getting quite a bashing. This has been one of my best seasons fishing so far and having caught a few 10 pounders I've been quite happy with that ... it even encouraged me to go out and buy some decent digital scales and now that I've aquired them do you think I can catch a decent fish to weigh with them.... maybe if I get out fishing again...
You're too easily Impressed Bro....

The only thing Phat about him now 's his bloody head mumble grunt grumble munt.
Whatrever happened to that nice polite little Phatty that came out with me and Bushie ... oh it must have been about 8 months and three ego sizes ago. Nah just kidding mate, that pin won't last long.
Boxing day I'd say he he he he.

I dont really care about the pin matey....as you know, being theres enough for me.
I mainly agreed with you and Bushy to claim it to try and kick some life into what must be refered to as a pretty lackluster part of proceedings around here.
It seems, that it worked

Phat's, I agree with you. We gotter start getting more life into the pin claims around here. I'm trying but 28cm snappers don't deserve a pin just a chest to put them on.(hehehehe)
I say more claims, more weigh in's and photo's
cheers JB
