Well finally caught myself a bully and wow what a giant :laugh: ! Finally broken my unlucky streak I think. Took a live cattie. Thought he'd put up more of a fight to be honest but oh well. Went 90cm.

Nice one mate, I also got my first this year after a couple of donuts whilst sussing them out.

[wesfish]

[webbfunk]

Hey Joel......how did you hook up the cattie? Just behind dorsal spike?

[mick fillet]

good shark Joel. nice first shark at 90cm, it is a good size to start on when trying to get better pb's. hope to read your new thread ( PB. shark ) soon.

[Ben Derecki]

Nice work mate! There's nothing like cracking a species you've been targeting hey.

[fishing_addict]

dik yeh obone. sweet catch

[DG89]

Good stuff obone

[tomca]

Now you know they are there! Sorry I couldn't make it the other night. Told you it was a good stretch of the river to target them. Next time use a biger catfish. Bigger bait = bigger shark!

One hook in front of the the dorsal spike, and one just near the end of the tail. Can't remember which he got hooked on, he'd shaken the catty off.
