Submitted by Kevin on Mon, 2009-02-23 19:50
I finally have something worth posting I caught this a couple of Thursdays ago at in front of the B shed Victoria Quay.I have fished there on a regular basis for the 25 years and seen everything from sheep ,cows and bodies pulled out of that place but couldnt believe it when this bad boy broke the surface it went 104cm 8.2kg.

Thanks everyone we were
Thanks everyone
we were there again last night I went home empty handed but my mate Brad landed a shovel nose shark about 1.7mtr long must have been close to 25/30kg put a great twenty minute fight with 4 blistering runs(for a river fish) he had the drag almost locked and it was peeling line off it was a relief to see it wasnt a ray after all the effort.

That's a bloody top fish Kevin
You would be wrapped if you caught that out in the sound.
Is that a gaff mark half way down its back or was that already there?
