My First Fish With a Rod in AUS!

Hey guys!

Many have probably seen my fail posts recently, but Tristan decided to take me out fishing (The guy is so down to earth and taught me so much).

Used squid... 8 KG line, and after 30 mins or so.. BOOM...thing doesn't move, dragged a few times...but after 10-15 mins, I caught my first fish of the rod, BUT, was a Port Jackson Shark lol... 15-20 KG (estimated), over a metre long.

She was a beaut (and yes, released)

Good effort... a solid fish! I think you may be a bit off in your weight estimation but you'll get there!

Was it Returned?

Great effort mate. I took some mates out about this time last year and we caught 9 of them was great fun for the guys as they had never caught them before. The ones we caught were not that big though. Good fun to catch all the same. Better than donuts..... They all went back as well. No point keeping them, as Greynurse said they look awesome under water.
