Robbielites Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) I recveived an email from a mate this morning that read. Check this out... BIGMOMMA! FARK! A work colleague caught this 2 weeks ago in Botany Bay. 110cm. 9kg’s. Rubber lure. 5 minutes. No fight….. So I thought every one would like to have a look at BIGMOMMA. I have blacked his face out as I don't have his permission to put the pic up, but I have sent him a link to the site encouraging him to join up and tell us the story. Cheers. Robbie.

james7 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Hey Peter - isn't that Napoleon in the 'Current Affairs' mugshot?? Now that you mention it Roberta, it does look like Napoleon. Apparently, he still holds the French flathead record. However, the flathead still reminds me of my ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
