GI JOE 0 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 thanks for the support there guys, those who know me will know that i hate killing fish and am often irritated by those who continually take big fish. these magnificent creatures have a place in the ecosystem and i have vowed never to kill another. that particular fish was fibreglass cast by Rob Chenda and will remain one of my most memorable captures, it's death was not simply for some fillets in the freezer. i certainly don't begrudge those who choose to keep a trophy fish, but the big ones are just to0 old and valuable to be taken everyday.oh and for those who are wondering about the "big big muwwoway" joke... this came from a friendly vietnamese bloke down at the garden island ramp. his english was not so good, but he was a real character!

srick 0 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 good fishie forsure gi joe. surprised to hear the mullie you released swam away easily. i was devostated to have one die a few weeks back after two flicks. i tried real hard to revive it but it seamed lifless and had way too much air in it to keep under water. i like you will get rob to tag my first 20kilo mullie and never planned on killing that 15kilo jewie. i tagged one a month before that estimated at around 14kilo that in itself took almort two hours to get strong enough to release. they seam weak fish. ill take better care on the next way to good to be caught once i say.

surfish 0 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 My first day on the mullies i got a 20 punder second cast and came home with a near 50 pounder. The other one was the same length and 47lb http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/7zjbTnSu__P1020067.JPG[/img] http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/kWu1GV4k__P1030007.JPG[/img] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brooksey_134 1 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 yorkes or far west coast im guessing mate? good job bet they went hard! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
surfish 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Brooksey_134 actually down the mouth they were caught. The top one on 25lb mono using an old Daiwa sealine 135H or something like that and an 8-12kg backbone rod. A mate said he has the same rod... for salmon. I had not had something go that hard before. Some people laugh at the photos cos i am 6'6" and make the fish look small Quote Link to post Share on other sites

osd 1 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hi Rodstar It went 44lb but it was a bit disappointing though as it was full of flesh worms,I also found some in a huge whiting I caught the other day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rodstar 0 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 really, YUK never seen flesh worms before, ive heard bout them in kingys tho. It would be heartbreaking to catch a fish like that and discover worms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
