My brother-in-law and I went fishing in the
Southport seaway on a very rainy Sunday afternoon. We were fishing for
tailor with trolled lures to no avail. We decided to put the big deep
diving lures on to see if there were any flathead about when I got nailed
by something very large. Approx 25 mins later, we had this huge jew
beside the 10 foot tender. Being unorganized we had forgotten to bring
a landing net or a gaff. The only option left was for Russell to lean
over the side of the boat and bear hug the beast into the boat. He is
the hero of this tale. These are the stats on the fish and the gear
used.

Length : 1.3m
Reel : Abu 6500
