gave me a bit of curry on 6 kilo, but he swam off alright. those clouds in the background is the tip of the big storm. .ended up driving into it for 5 hrs straight.
Yeah paul. would have got over my limit of tailor most days but only kept 3-4 fish a day. Took me under 10 minutes to land as i surfed him straight in on a big wave. I was gutted when I first id'd him for a sambo as i thought i was onto a monster tailor, but good to see him swim off strongly. It wasnt until I saw the photo that i realised he could have been an ambo
