Paddled out this morn in the dark and as soon was i hit spot x my reel screamed. The fish peeled off 200m and broke the surface just like the fish that i have lost recently. This time the hooks held and i gaffed him green as 10mins later. Stoked as, i paddled straight back in and even landed a school mack on the way in. The pics don't really show the true chunkiness of the fish but the brag mat shot shows its length.

They are getting bigger.
I reckon one day you will post - "spanish ate my yak!"
200m run would have lifted the heart rate.
Thanks for posting - great fish

My avatar pic span is heaps bigger at 1.66m and 32kg but i might change it cause it is worth a lot more from a yak. No donger but did have a small gaff and some strong hands gripping the tail. Tail wrapped him and chucked his head in the bag.

LOL, I am not putting my donger anywhere near those teeth even if i run out of pillies, otherwise i would need an op in thailand.

No No, surely I am not reading that right!?? Now that if made into a movie would be shot in Thailand.
Title for a future catch "MACK ate my YAK"
Then of course with your yak set up like that guy had to catch the marlin - you can have a video - starts with music from JAWS - can only get better . . . . ;D
You catch heaps of spaniards - do you find it freezes okay? Don't reckon I will get that problem this season though having to freeze them - but one day :)
It's nice to get up early and get paid to exercise - you have a great life Carnster - all the best.

Yeah trev i reckon they freeze really well. I would gladly eat it 6 months later from the freezer and reckon it would be still better than any fish you buy from woolies or the like.
