Mangrove Jack

[Fitzy]

Just got an email from the team at Gladstone Hatchery. Tomorrow they are releasing some Mangrove Jack fingerlings (50 -100mm) that they've bred.
These fish are sure to turn lake fishing in Qld on its head in years to come if enough of them can be bred.
Congrats to the Gladstone Area Water Board & the Gladsotne Port Authority for thier commitment to fish stocking in funding the hatchery there.
Pity all other water boards didn't follow thier lead.

Great news!
Pity they don't like it in chilly Vic!

How big do you reckon they'll grow?

Time to upgrade the perch gear 'eh?

Cheers, Slates

Crickey mate, wouldn't have a clue. How big do they get out on the reefs? Probably that size in a fraction of the time.

eeehhhaaahhhh
Will definately need to upgrade the perch gear.

So we'll see a new thecnique in dams, first catch your bass and bridle rig him for slow trolling for jacks !!!!!
