Good elbow slapper

Congratulations on a great effort. Persistence paid off.

You’ve got the fishing bug. That fish you lost will make you come back for more cos it will always be a story to tell and it will be one of those things that stay in your mind.

Congratulations on the 2 PB’s and on the great read.

It doesn’t matter what fish your targeting and even if your getting hits on your lure and there is no hook up. It is always good practice to check your leader before you have another cast because you don’t know when you hook up to that fish of a life time and you lose that fish cos of a nicked or frayed line due to being lazy. All in all it sounds like you had a couple of good sessions.

You should get on a charter in NZ and fish for kingys or snapper while you are over there. Your already there you might as well do it.

Nice jewie mate. And a nice feed as well. Congrats.

Congratulations on your catch recurve. What were you using for bait. Barracouta and pike make excellent bait for snapper. I've caught my biggest snapper on a piece of barracouta flesh.

A Jewy to tick off your bucket list. Congrats on your first jewy and plenty more to come.

Nice catch to the both of you. What did the Jews measure up to.
