Decent Trout I jigged from our trip to the Abrolhos Islands in June.
Took my Haoli mid water on a quick retrieve.
Went 810mm.
Stoked!

looks like the one that got away! (has someones old hook in the other side of the mouth)
Yep, that fish has evaded the Eski previously. Took me 2 go's to get a solid hook-up too. Mid water trout on a quick retrieve had us guessing.
cheers!

Experienced similar thing previously at Abrolhos too. Saw mid water sounder lit up and jigged with quick retrieve expecting pelagic but caught a trout instead! But too bad mine ain't as big as yours!

What depth. Unusual to see trout with Barotrauma eyes?
