This is a crappy pic !!!!!, #but not a bad fish .
# # #Went fishing for the arvo after work in march , two mates went down stream , I went up stream only 150mtrs .Hooked this nice fish ,had no one to take a good pic or nothing to measure with so I stood over it and got one quick pic and took a rough measurement with my rod. Unhooked the fish and setting the camera for time delay!, big splash fish gone. The fish swim away so it was all good. Measured my rod when I got home to see the fishes length!, 110cm.

Yeah mate its getting cool also had a -4 . Did your end up getting over to Pindari ?, thought you might have gone there for the fishing comp this weekend. Shame I didn't get a better pic of the fish probably a good thing it got away might of done me back in lifting it. Hows the fishing going over there with the cooler weather?.

Gday rossco
Bit of each mate its in the river at the moment but if the dam ever fills it will be part of the dam again. Bit heary trying to keep them out of the snags from the bank.

I was the same ,mate had to work so I didn't worry about going. Was talking to Fletty (Mud eye lures) said a lot of small cod were caught and alot chasing lures to the boat. Best caught for the comp was 90 odd cm's and a few bigger lost. Thinking about heading out sat arvo for a look.

Gday guys
yes bdowdy he is still out fishing me & lets me know it too, i think my skills lay in being the boat bitch at the moment.i will have the rods in the car for the trip to townsville,leave mum to look after him > & dad will go fishing .reminds me of a trip to glenlyon a few years ago,mate & I went down the river for the afternoon I caught 3 cod , mate couldn't get a touch so i gave him my lure to use picked another & put on, i caught the next fish mate wasn't happy, all he could say was " i didn't come all this way to be your photographer" , he did end up catching two.

wamjam
