bluefin Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 This is a photo from 2013, back then it was deemed to be a GT. I have always had doubts. With our resident fish ID experts id like to ask again. I have caught a couple lately, which has sparked my curiosity. Thanks Howard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 bluefin Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 There was one caught up here on a charter, Mark called it a Bigeye, he thinks. it has almost the same colouring but seems longer in the body, slimmer. this is one I caught a couple of weeks ago.

0 bluefin Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 Thank you. I can now confidently say I caught a GT on a popper. Even if it was only 46c/m . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
