One
that got away

I was fishing the Eden in the Stenkrith rocky pools with worm when
I struck into a large fish After 5 minutes during which I never saw
the fish, it was able to keep its head down even though I was applying
considerable pressure. My plan was to tire the fish but try to stop
it from going under a rock shelf. This is just what it did and it
broke me. If anyone catches this fish it could have a No16 hook in
its mouth, I would appreciate it if you contacted me, I would love
to know its weight. My estimate would be 21/2 to 3lbs. |
