I'd never caught a snapper until this weekend. Went out with my uncle and caught 3. My first ever snapper went a whopping 100cm - could not believe it. Going to be hard to wipe the smile off my face f

finally broke the 30lb and mtr mark this year at the stanvac barges (a while ago) we ended up with 6 fish over a mtr that day...

May not be my biggest red but it was certainly my biggest on light tackle, not bad for a Wednesday night after works effort.went 9450mm and a bit over 9.2kgCaught onRod: daiwa sol 2-4kg Reel: quantum

i'll sit here, very happy , i netted 2 x 7kg snapps in my tinny yesterday , not scale busters but big enough for me and an ex workmate to go silly. looked funnier when he headed home on his GSXR1100. With 10" of tail sticking out of his back-packi'll put a pic up when i charge my old ph up and bluetooth it over, new ph has no usb cord.brent

man of mystery..... either way there are some big fish in the sea...Srick there's no point being jelous mate....everyfish is different for their own merrits.... My avatar... On a charter caught with 75lb main line to 150lb leader....no fight for 20lb fish, very dissapointed. However... the last 7-8kg fish I landed locally faught tooth and nail all the way and was far better than some of the bigger fish.....all different!Hopefully I can replicate Brents efforts tomorrow and get a few with the old man !! still plenty around in numbers..but for how long??
