Mako beached in Perth
Submitted by Colin Hay on Sat, 2009-11-14 22:26
Matt (Mako), well known for his exploits chasing game fish offshore, decided it was the perfect time to try out one of the local spots for some tailor fishing this evening with a few of the Fishwrecked rock hoppers.
This is just a few of his nice tailor captures.

Matty has some pretty nice beach and rock fishing
gear which he got to give a good hit out.
I think he really enjoyed himself despite getting soaking wet and falling in a hole.
It was also good to get young Blake out on the rocks and he landed a few nice fish too.

It is is a pity you couldn't make it mate
We could have tested out your "tailor killer" rigs. They would have gone off.
