Super effort and great report. I assume you had to chase those big girls after hook-up ?? That would have raised the blood pressure in the dark lol.
Wow Chris!! Ok it was worth the wait!!
Amazing trip, congrats on the new PB you both managed. What's the bet ...how long until a 130 is on the mat? Bummer about you new reel. Just remember, it's not over till the fat barra sits on it I'd like to be there when you take it back to the shop and tell em a barra sat on it and broke it. Might help to take a pic of the fat B$%ch? I can't believe the girth difference between the 121 and 123. Your has been in a good paddock.
Congrats again on a awesome trip!!
Cheers Kim.
Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says...
'Oh Shit.....she's awake'
Thanks Kim
I was looking forward to seeing the comparison photos ........ only 2 cm in it (2.5cm really) ....... but the fight was totally different , mine came rather easily while MW ran/ jumped carried on for a good 10 mins....... it would not come to the net...........
Broken reel (first trip) ...... hopefully I wont be stung too much ( its a lovely reel too)

Didnt want those bloody things on the fire mate, EPA would have flogged us! That was noice cheese and crackers though, I allways say you can never have to much cheese when your camping......
Epic trip, awesome fish, that big girl blows me away, its just all body bulk with a head and tail tacked on the ends, really is good as it gets and very much deserved to you and the MW.
See ya managed to get that tent under contol yesterday, I'd just finished the all day brekky at Howard when you blokes whizzed past me.
well done guys, a great haul indeed.
I'm going up again soon (my first barra trip not long ago = donut) and hope even for just one fish
Hi Brian
That was a great way to finish off our trip- fire , beer , cheese & bickies ..... & good company
Those Volleys could have walked into the fire themselves
A big fish alright ....... I sruggled to lift her - & didn't really feel happy about having that dorsal spine in my face.
Got the tent down OK ...... Its just the packing that is a pain
We just decided to try a Sexy Coffee when you were behind us ........... It was a hell of a difference with just a 4.5 hour drive ........ LOVE IT !!! ........ except now I have to unpack 20 boxes in the unit .
Cheers

Actually Shane ..... I'm driving down to Sydney for a few days work & catch up with kids & family.
I ended up in Morningside ......... not a bad place - but most importantly room for my boat - not easy to find without selling my organs!
Should be up at mondy after Easter ( trying to get a trip in each month)

Great report Chris, well done to you both. Some incredible looking fish in those photos. It must be a bit of a culture shock to be only4.5 hours away now. -cheers Richard
