It is too good of a fish not to share the pics.

Fished Tweed today, Matt did battle with 40 kgs of GT

Fell to a Gulp Squid, 4000 Hyper on 50 lbs braid

15 Min fight, Lip gaffed and another 5 mins to swim the bus and watch is swim away

Fish of a life time, well done mate [img size=374]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/Matt_Hill_13.jpg
