Wicked fish Chris - that tailor is a horse!

The tarpon looks nice and thick too, what did you get those on? Plastics?

[HookedOnTackle]

very nice fishing, am super jealous

[snapsnap]

lovely fish there. hope for a good tailor myself on the weekend

[Eug]

what a beast green back... nice one

[Miss Munchkin]

Nice fish, no... not nice fish, Great Fish! Well done mate... As HookedOnTackle said.... Am SUPER jealous. Keep up the great fishing.

[crazywalrus]

damn nice fish there. that greenback is the biggest I have seen. well done mate

[Joel Eadie]

thanks for the report thats awesome work

[Mr FeLiX]

Mate, those fish are insane. Well done on all, but I have to say that greenback is a beast

[thousandyards]

like everyone else said re: the tailor..........that's insane!!

so are there stories/reports to go with each of these or do we die wondering??

[chris_stewart14]

Yeah the Tailor is insane... Confession though is I didnt catch it. Was caught by my mate standing 2ft away from me haha.. Did however pose the question how big can they actually get? I suppose much like the illusive 50cm Bream and 60cm Bass - people have always heard of bigger but unfortunately dont have one on a brag mat or tape measure to prove it. No real stories with them as such.. Plastics did the most amount of damage.

Bertie reported on one a year or so back going 1m, some Red Neck pulled it from the Canals

Shame to keep it IMO, especially when it wasn't bled out :dry:

[chris_stewart14]

Agreed mate.. Unfortunately this one was slain too as old mate was a Phillipino and keen on taking it home to his family and despite my powers of persuasion it was his fish so he got to choose what to do with it. I considered pitching it back in while he wasn't watching but haha. If I had my way all fish would have a max size limit like lizards but I understand not many would agree with that.

I guess the hardcore C & R balance out the hardcore kill & grill so hopefully we end up somewhere around sustainable.. Hopefully! :dry:

She would have definately bred alot of little Tailor in her time though.. As a mate put it "think of how many alvey geared, yellow raincoat wearing rapists she'd have dodged over the years".. :laugh:
