well done Ray.

[Feral]

Well Ray was scowling in all my photos at the HQ as well, so here is one just to show he was a happy camper with his Threadie!

Submitted a couple of modest entries for Alex and I to the "photoentry" email address, just to get on the board!

[Plastic Man]

[Dinodadog]

onya Ray don't stop now see if you can better it

[Lozzel]

Well done Ray :woohoo:

To say that I wasn't "Pissed" when Feral sent me the pic at work was an understatement :dry:

Keep it up and go get another one :cheer:

[Nitris]

Great fish ray .... i dont know what tops a 120cm threadfin other then a 140cm threadfin..

I just got back from a night session was a hard fish tonight but managed to get a bullshark in the boat at arround 101cm to the fork of the tail. about 110cm to the tip of tail. Man its hard to get a clear picture of the shark at night while it is in the boat and me trying to hold the secreat tape along the shark at the same time.

and to get it so clear so that u can have the whole shark in the pic as well as c the markings on the tape.. i found it easier to film it and zoom in to c the tape.

and i also got onehundred and fifty reasons to leave my mast light on at all times from the friendly water police...

I know thier just doing thier job. well off to get some sleep so i can :fishing: sooner.

[James W]

i got a shark:)

122cm;) [img size=320]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/DSC00644.jpg

[James W]

me and fergie fished the sunken wall for a few hours and were hounded by some big catties(emails sent) and managed to score my first bully of the year..took a live mullet pinned through the nose...was stoked...

during the day fishing was very frustrating with all the debris coming out of the river..we managed a few bream,cod and catties but only weighed in to little fellas in the high 20's:blush: ..but we are coming first and second..so far:P

i know some people have jobs and stuff, but i wish there was a better turn out for day one of the comp:(

now i must sleep as i have a bad case of sea legs!

cyas tomorrow:fishing: [img size=240]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/DSC00636.jpg

[pinkey]

Nice bully jimmy, wish i was fishing it.

[ellicat]

Looks like we shoulda headed down the river rather than up it, but was keen to avoid all the bad smells you get downstream from the Gateway. Unfortunately it didn't make much difference with shortie onboard .....he's gotta change his diet :pinch: :X :whistle:No joke - there were blokes from 3 separate boats complaining:unsure:

Nice way to start Ray!:woohoo: and nice bully JB:woohoo:

[Dasa05]

:fishing: Me n Jeff f landed some nice threadies :woohoo: weigh them in tommorro morn aside from that 2 bloddy big rays and 5 or so shovel nose, going to bed for some shut eye

[Terry H]

Just got back from watching an epic fishing trip with "The Bent Hooker".

Who said it couldn't be done again?

That's all I'm saying!

[Feral]

Intriguing Terry, Sounds like we have something to look forward to!

Onya Jimmybob and Jeff, looking good for an excellent catch this year, I was worried it would be slim pickings with all the recent rain. You might have got that shark earlier Jimmybob if you hadn't weighed your good livies!

Happy camper is not the word, have a look at the way he holding that fish and the smile on his dial. I bet he never held Feral that way. Who says Ray loves fishing more then anything. :kiss:

[Nitris]

Good shark there JB... Beats ours.. My picture is not that great anyways.. and looks like my unique item is out of the picture..

A picture's worth a thousand words. :laugh:

(Feral/Terry any mod please delete if this is offensive...I'm too tired to make a judgement call...but thought this was amusing...sorry in advance if you're offended Ray)) [img size=491]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/raythreadiehighlighted.jpg

HAd a great night on the water fellas. The pizza delivered to us on the river at breaky creek was sensational.

I enjoyed it going in more than coming out.

Unfortunatelly the force wasnt with us last night. runing repairs today and hopefully we will be on the water again tonight.

[shortie]

The force is dead. So not fishing from it tonight.

However where there is a will there is a way.

Brian and I will be there. Without the force

[Nitris]

Well done Ray good to see the oldies doing so good, hope you can learn to stay on it.

[Rocket75]

Jeez Ray, not so long ago you dubbed yourself "the donut king", now you are yak-king:lol:

well done again mate. I know you have put a lot of time and effort into working out a plan of attack for the comp, so it's great to see you come up trumps:)
